Quick answer
Is there free salon software in India?
Appointly offers a 7-day free trial with full access to every feature it ships today — the online booking link, WhatsApp confirmations and 24-hour reminders, customer self-service rescheduling, the single shared calendar and the booking insights screen. No credit card is required to start. After 7 days you can subscribe through Stripe or stop using Appointly — we don't auto-charge a card we don't have.
From manual WhatsApp chaos to organised bookings
Clients message at midnight. You forget. The slot gets double-booked the next morning.
Online bookings land directly in a single shared calendar. The slot disappears the moment it's taken.
You type the same reminder to 30 clients every day. It takes an hour you don't have.
A 24-hour WhatsApp reminder is sent automatically for every booking. Your hour comes back.
Last-minute cancellations come in by phone and you scramble to fill the slot.
Clients reschedule or cancel themselves through the manage link until 2 hours before — the slot frees up early and another client can grab it online.
At the end of the day you have no idea how the week is actually going.
A simple insights screen shows bookings, top services, estimated revenue and booking trends.
