Why Glodesk

Booking software should not take a cut of your work

Most of the market makes you choose: rent your clients back from a marketplace, settle for a diary with no records, or pay clinical prices found only on a sales call.

The marketplace tax

Marketplace apps charge 20 to 35% commission on a new client's first visit, then keep the relationship inside their app.

Glodesk charges no commission on anything, and no one stands between you and your clients.

The clipboard problem

Salon software stops at the diary. Patch tests, consent and medical history live on paper, if they live anywhere.

Consent forms, medical history, photos and treatment notes are built into every Glodesk plan.

The hidden price list

Clinical systems gate their pricing behind a demo call, charge per user, and punish you for hiring.

Our prices are published on this site, flat per month, rolling, and free for reception logins.

The maths, plainly

What does a £200 new client actually cost you?

On platforms that charge commission on a new client's first booking, the same appointment costs you £40 at 20%, and £70 at 35%. Fill one chair a week that way and it is thousands a year, paid for clients who were searching for someone like you anyway.

The diary

A week you can read at a glance

Every practitioner, room and location on one colour-coded calendar, filled around the clock by online booking. Deposits are taken when the client books, so a 6pm no-show stops costing you the evening.

  • Week and day views per practitioner and location
  • Deposits collected at the moment of booking
  • Confirmations, reminders and aftercare sent automatically
  • Reception logins are free, always

Where Glodesk goes further

Consent, photos and medical history, without the clipboard

Salon apps do not do this at all, and clinical systems charge clinical prices for it. Glodesk builds the whole consultation journey into every plan, for a patch test as much as a filler appointment.

app.glodesk.co.uk/consultation
Consultation mode: client journey, completed medical history, before and after photos and a treatment note on one screen
  1. 01

    Forms are done before they arrive

    Medical history and consent go out with the booking confirmation. Clients complete and sign at home, and you review before they walk in.

  2. 02

    Consultation mode in the room

    A tablet-friendly screen with the journey, forms, photos and notes for today's client. Nothing else.

  3. 03

    Photos with consent built in

    Before and after photos, captured on any phone via a QR handoff, stored on the record. The camera stays locked until photo consent is recorded.

  4. 04

    A record that stands up

    Signed consent, batch numbers, injection maps and notes in one place, ready for an audit or an insurer without a weekend of collation.

Booking, wherever your clients are

Your website, or ours. Or both.

Both are included on every plan. No marketplace funnel, no booking page held hostage.

Already have a website?

Paste one small snippet into WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or anything hand-built, and the booking flow appears inside your own page, styled in your colours. Clients never leave your site.

No website yet?

Thinking of switching?

A fair look at where you might be now

Every tool below does something well. Here is what usually prompts the move, honestly put.

If you are on a marketplace app

  • Great at bringing first-time bookings, and you pay 20 to 35% of them for it.
  • Your client list lives inside their app, and repeat clients are nudged back through their search.
  • On Glodesk your clients book you directly, and every record belongs to you.

If you are on salon software

  • Solid diaries and reminders, often priced per staff member.
  • Consent, medical history and clinical photos are thin or missing, so paper fills the gap.
  • Glodesk keeps the easy diary and adds clinical-grade records on every plan.

If you are on a clinical system

  • Real records and consent, built for medics, priced like it.
  • Per-user fees make hiring expensive, and pricing often starts with a sales call.
  • Glodesk publishes flat prices, and reception logins never cost a penny.

Moving is our job, not yours

We import your clients, appointment history and forms from your current system or a spreadsheet. Guided migration is free on annual plans, and your data exports back out any time, no exit fees.

Ask about switching
Good questions

Asked often, answered plainly

No. Glodesk runs any appointment-led beauty business: hair and beauty salons, brow and lash studios, barbers, spas and skin clinics. The clinical tools, consent, patch tests, photos and medical history, are there when your treatments need them and stay out of the way when they do not.

Really. Your subscription is the only thing we charge. No percentage of bookings, no fee per online booking, no cut of new clients. If a plan allowance no longer fits, we prompt you in the app; we never silently bill for the difference.

No. Anyone can book from your website or booking link in under a minute, and we match them to their existing record by email. If they later create a portal login, their history is already waiting.

Yes. Paste one small snippet into WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or a hand-built site and the booking flow appears inside your page, styled in your colours. It is included on every plan.

Yes. Your site is live at glodesk.co.uk/your-name from day one, and you can point your own domain, such as book.yourclinic.co.uk, at it with a simple CNAME record. We handle the SSL certificate.

Set a fixed amount or percentage per treatment and Glodesk collects it at booking, with your cancellation policy shown before anyone pays. Deposits are redeemed against the bill on the day, and you can send payment links and sell gift vouchers too.

Your records are stored securely in the UK with role-based access, so front of house sees the diary while clinical notes stay with practitioners. The data is yours: export clients, appointments and financial history any time, free.

No contracts, no exit fees, no data ransom. Export everything whenever you like and your subscription simply stops at the end of the month. We would rather earn the renewal.
