Can I make a booking app for my salon without coding?

Yes. Claim the Appointments template, pick your colours and icon, and you have a booking app with customer bookings and a staff diary on its own backend. Changes are asked for in plain English.

Can customers pay when they book?

Not in the template as it is: it takes bookings without card payments. A payment or deposit step is a change you can ask for, using your own payment provider.

A booking app builder for businesses that run on appointments

A booking app builder should give you the booking part finished, not a blank screen. The Appointments template is a complete booking app: customers see your services and free slots and book one, and staff run the diary from the same app. It is a standard template, free to make yours, and it installs on iPhone and Android with your colours and icon.

Templates to start from

AppointmentsFree
Services, real availability and bookings — salon style.

Does not process payments and run more than one business in one app.

What a customer and your staff can do

Customers browse services, pick a time that is free and book it, then see and change their bookings.
Staff see the day’s diary and set their own hours and time off; the owner edits the services and prices inside the app.
You appoint who runs it: sign up inside your app, then make that account the admin from the app’s settings on Glassly.

Before you promise it to customers

Read the limits below the template: it does not take card payments for bookings, its reminders are set on the customer’s own phone rather than sent from a server, and it runs one location. Anything else, such as a deposit step or a second location, is a change you ask for in chat and test.

Many salons and barbers pair it with a loyalty card; the loyalty app page covers that one.

What it costs

Standard templates are free to claim and make yours: pick the colours, add your own icon or logo and preview it on the web, with sign-in, a database and file storage already working.
Free accounts get 5 native builds to install on your phone, and 5 AI credits to try changes in chat.
A free app keeps its template’s name. Your app’s own name comes with any plan.
Building your own idea from a description needs a plan. Premium templates cost credits at claim, and each one shows its price before you spend anything.
Free apps run on our starter backend. It sleeps after an hour without use and wakes when the app is opened, holds up to 250 MB, and after 60 days needs moving to your own Supabase project (Supabase has a free plan). You get a week’s notice and we guide the move.
No card is needed to start.

Plans: Basic is $5 (£3.99) a month with 50 credits, Pro is $19 (£14.99) a month with 250 credits, Business is $49 (£36.99) a month with 1000 credits. For iPhone installs through Glassly, connect your own Apple developer account (standard fee $99/year, paid to Apple). Android installs from a link, subject to device permissions and developer verification. Publishing on Google Play needs your own developer account ($25 once, paid to Google). Full pricing.
