Apoynt
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
What it is
Apoynt is a business platform for service businesses that already have their customers, including barbers, salons, beauty businesses, personal trainers, and tattoo artists. Customers can book a named team member, date, and available time through a business booking page, with location selection where offered. Its point-of-sale tools cover cash floats, shift checks, live cash, card and gift totals, tips, change, and end-of-day cash-up. Businesses can sell gift cards online, redeem them at the till, check balances, and offer loyalty stamps; availability depends on the plan. Communications include booking confirmations, 24-hour reminders, campaign emails, live chat, and WhatsApp contact features. Businesses can connect their own PayPal or Stripe account or accept bank transfer. Apoynt says it takes no commission on bookings, till sales, deposits, or gift cards, but payment-provider fees may apply. Plans start at £14.99/mo, and the 14-day trial includes every feature. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web.
