Double bookings for the same barber
When several people write in the same book, two clients can be booked with one barber at the same time, and one of them has to wait.

How does online booking work for a barbershop?
Online booking gives your barbershop a page where clients choose a service, a barber and one of the free slots from their phone. With TapTime each barber has their own hours and days off on one shared calendar, walk-ins entered at the counter appear in the same list, and the page offers only what is still free. Clients receive a confirmation email and a reminder 24 hours before.

A shared paper book cannot keep up with a team of barbers.
A paper book or a set of messages does not know each barber's hours, days off or which clients asked for a specific barber.
Schedule changes are not recorded
Swapped shifts, training days and late starts are often agreed verbally, while the book still shows the barber as available.
Barbers cannot see their own day
When the schedule exists only at the counter, barbers have to ask the front desk for their next appointment throughout the day.
One calendar with a column for every barber.
Set hours, days off and buffers for each barber once. The booking page and the counter then work from the same availability.
Individual hours for each barber
Every barber has a photo, a title and their own weekly schedule, including late starts and days off. The page only books within those hours.
Days off for any week
For a holiday, a course or a sick day, override that barber's schedule for the week, and the page stops offering their slots immediately.
A specific barber or anyone available
Clients choose a barber by name, or select anyone available and see slots that are free for any barber. The booking is placed in the right column either way.
Online, phone and walk-in bookings in one list
Walk-ins are entered at the counter in seconds and take the slot. Online and counter bookings appear together, in order, for every barber.
The whole shop in one view
See every chair side by side for the day: who is fully booked, who has a gap and where a walk-in fits.
Each barber sees their own schedule
A barber can be limited to their own schedule and see only their appointments on their phone. The owner and front desk see the whole team.
Set up the team calendar in three steps.
No onboarding call and no setup fee. You enter what you already know about your team.

Paper book compared with a team calendar.
| Paper book compared with a team calendar. | Phone, messages and a paper diary | TapTime team calendar |
|---|---|---|
| A barber's day off | Agreed verbally, often not recorded | Set for that week; the page stops offering the barber |
| Two clients, one slot | Possible on busy days | Prevented; booked slots are removed at once |
| Client requests a specific barber | Depends on the note in the book | Chosen on the page and placed in that barber's column |
| Time between appointments | Not planned consistently | A buffer per service, applied automatically |
| A barber checks their day | Asks the front desk | Opens their own calendar on their phone |
| Cost | Idle chairs and double bookings | From 39 € a month for up to 3 barbers |
New bookings shared with every barber in the team chat
New bookings, cancellations and completed appointments are sent to the team chat and your spreadsheets. This is included with appointments at no extra cost: no add-on, no higher tier and no per-event fee.
How conversions, webhooks and the API work
See which ads bring in bookings for each barber
Every online booking stores its campaign alongside the barber, so you can see which ads fill each barber's schedule. Confirmed bookings are sent to Google Ads, Meta and GA4 at the service price.
One chat the whole team follows
Connect the bot to a topic in the shop's Telegram group, or to a Slack or Teams channel. Every barber sees new bookings and cancellations within seconds, in the language you choose, with a link to the calendar.
Completed appointments in a spreadsheet
Zapier, Make, n8n or Pipedream can add each completed booking to a Google Sheet with the barber, service and time, so monthly totals per barber are ready. No code is required.
Webhooks and API for your own tools
Signed webhooks send each booking to your own tools, and the REST API reads appointments and an event feed. Up to 50 webhooks, chats and automations per company and 10 active API keys.
Priced by barbers, not by bookings.
From 39 € a month for up to 3 barbers and 10 services; up to 7 barbers is 69 €. The team calendar, the booking page, buffers, days off and unlimited bookings are all included.
Each additional shop gets its own calendar, team and subscription under one account, with staff scoped per location. Other TapTime modules, such as a loyalty card, are priced separately and can be added at any time.

- Barbershops with several barbers
- Walk-in barbershops
- Men's grooming salons
- Beard and shave specialists

Frequently asked questions
Can each barber have different hours?
Yes. Every barber has their own weekly schedule, and you can override it for any week for a holiday, a course or a sick day. The page offers only slots within those hours.
Can a regular book the same barber every time?
Yes. The client chooses their barber on the page and sees that barber's free times. Next time they open the same link and can book the same barber again.
What if the client does not mind which barber?
They choose “anyone available” on the page and see the slots that are free for any barber. The booking goes into the column of the barber who is free at that time.
Can I keep taking walk-ins?
Yes. Walk-ins are entered in the calendar at the counter and appear in the same list as online bookings. The page only offers the slots that remain free.
Do clients need an app?
No. The booking page opens from the link in the phone's browser. Barbers and the front desk also use the dashboard in a browser, on any phone or laptop.
How many barbers can I add?
The entry plan at 39 € a month covers up to 3 barbers and 10 services. Up to 7 barbers is 69 €, and a higher tier is available for larger shops.
How do I keep room for walk-ins if the page fills the day?
Set a minimum notice so the next hour or two cannot be booked online, and a booking horizon so the page does not fill weeks ahead. Times the page does not offer remain available for walk-ins, which you can enter in any free slot.
What happens if I stop paying?
After a short grace period the module is paused and the booking page shows a brief “temporarily unavailable” note. Nothing is deleted: your barbers, hours and bookings are restored when you reactivate the subscription.
Can I send my barbers' completed appointments to a spreadsheet?
Yes. Connect Zapier, Make, n8n or Pipedream from Integrations in TapTime, choose the completed event, and each finished booking is sent as signed JSON that the tool turns into a Google Sheets row. No code is required, and Send test shows the fields first.
