What it is
StyleSeat is a booking and business platform for beauty, barber, and wellness professionals. It combines scheduling, payments, marketing, and client management in one service, with web, Android, and iOS access. Barbers can share a booking link that shows the next available appointment, including walk-in availability. Professionals can create repeating appointment slots that StyleSeat books and reminds clients about automatically. Payment features include Tap to Pay on iPhone, a card reader, card-on-file automatic checkout, deposits, and no-show protection. Marketing tools include marketplace discovery, email and text campaigns, automated reminders and follow-ups, review management, and an AI social post builder. Client records can store notes, history, and preferences, and professionals can message clients in the app. StyleSeat syncs with a phone calendar and notifications. The service offers a free trial but no free plan. StyleSeat Pro is listed at $19 a month after the trial, while StyleSeat Pro annual is $199 a year. The pricing page also shows paid pricing from $35/mo.
