Why salons look elsewhere

Three costs that creep up.

The bill follows your bookings

Timely bills per week, and your weekly bill rises with the number of bookings you take. A busier week costs more.

The plan ladder

A waitlist, consultation forms and cancellation fees start on Boost, from £7 a week. Stock and rebooking reminders sit on Thrive, from £9 a week, and staff-specific pricing is a further £8 a week add-on. With Revyfy, all of that is in the £39.99 price from day one.

Card fees and hardware

Timely charges 1.59% + 5p per transaction in salon plus the cost of a terminal unless using Tap to Pay, and 1.85% + 30p online. Card processing applies on both platforms, as it does everywhere.

The maths

What a 3-chair salon actually pays.

A 3-chair salon pays about £65 a month on Timely, rising with bookings, against £39.99 flat on Revyfy, with a waitlist, consultation forms, cancellation fees and staff-specific pricing.

Timely: about £65 a month, rising with bookings

Timely puts the waitlist, consultation forms and cancellation fees on the Boost plan, from £7 a week, about £30 a month. Adding the Advanced team management add-on for staff-specific pricing is a further £8 a week, about £35 a month, so a 3-chair salon on Timely pays about £65 a month, rising with bookings. Revyfy is £39.99 a month with the waitlist, consultation forms, cancellation fees and staff-specific pricing already included, and the price does not move with bookings.

Revyfy: £39.99 flatSame price in a busy month as a quiet one, at any team size. Card processing on top, as anywhere.

Timely's bill rises as the diary fills. Revyfy's £39.99 does not move, whatever the week looks like, and already includes the waitlist, forms and marketing features that sit on Timely's higher plans.

Timely is Run from £4 a week, Boost from £7, Thrive from £9, billed in GBP, unlimited team members, with a price that rises with bookings. Transaction fees 1.59% + 5p in salon, 1.85% + 30p online. Full breakdown: Timely pricing in the UK, explained.

What Timely is

A booking-volume priced platform.

Timely is salon and clinic software priced per week on booking volume rather than per staff member. Three plans, Run, Boost and Thrive, start at £4, £7 and £9 a week with unlimited team members, and the weekly bill adjusts with the number of bookings taken. Online booking, reminders, deposits and reporting sit on every plan; the waitlist, consultation forms, cancellation fees and SMS campaigns start on Boost; stock and accounting integrations sit on Thrive. Payments carry per-transaction fees. Revyfy is the flat-price alternative described here: one price, all of that included, whatever the booking volume.

Timely's bill rises when you get busier. Revyfy's flat price does the opposite on purpose: the same £39.99 whether the diary is packed or steady, so a salon can budget without checking last week's bookings first.
