Quick answer
How much does an online booking system cost in South Africa?
Booklink is priced for South African service providers in two tiers. The Free plan costs R0 forever and includes one service, one team member, thirty bookings per month, a fully branded booking page, email notifications, and client management - enough to run a solo operation on a light caseload without paying a cent. The Pro plan is a flat R79 per month, billed monthly with no lock-in, and unlocks unlimited services and bookings, up to five team members with per-user permissions, Google Calendar sync, Google Meet links for online appointments, deposit and full-payment collection via Yoco, Paystack, PayFast, or iKhokha, multi-service bookings, automated WhatsApp reminders, up to three configurable email reminders, multiple availability slots per day, storefront branding with your own colours and fonts, business contact details on your booking page, removal of Booklink branding, and priority support.
Booklink charges zero commission on any booking on either plan. The only transaction fees you pay are the standard processing fees charged by your chosen payment gateway, billed by that gateway rather than by Booklink. Compared to international marketplaces that charge between R400 and R800 per month for equivalent functionality, or marketplace platforms that skim a per-booking commission, R79 is calibrated to a solo stylist or one-room studio rather than an enterprise. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time without a cancellation fee.
