Comparison

Bookodile vs Boulevard

Boulevard is a payments-first platform for US self-care businesses, priced per location on a twelve-month agreement, with its own card processing, forms and texting. Bookodile has every feature on every account except SMS, which need a paid plan, no minimum term, and a free plan a small business can stay on.

Bookodile or Boulevard: what matters most#

Bookodile

A free plan, not a trial — with every feature#

Start free and stay free: one location, two booking spots, 40 bookings a month, and every feature and add-on, the website and AI Chat included. Only SMS need a paid plan, because each one is billed.

Boulevard

No free plan: the cheapest, Essentials, is $159 a month for one location and up to five providers, or $143 billed yearly.

Bookodile

A website you build with AI — on your own domain, free#

Tell AI Chat what you want and it builds your website with you. The first draft comes in moments, made from your services, prices, team, hours and reviews, in a design you choose. Then just say what to change: “make it feel warmer”, “bring over the words from my old site”, “rewrite our About text”. Photo galleries sort into categories you name, and a category linked to a service gets its own Book button. Prices and opening hours stay in step with your bookings. Your own domain connects at no cost, and nothing goes public until you publish.

Boulevard

No website: it sells a booking overlay for a site you already have, on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or others.

Bookodile

AI Chat — an AI assistant that helps with everything you need#

Ask in your own words, typed or spoken, and AI Chat does the work. It sets up services, prices, the team and opening hours. It writes your bios and service descriptions and builds your website. It blocks out a holiday and hands those bookings to a colleague, moves bookings, and tells you what tomorrow holds and who changed what. Every change comes with Undo, in every account, the free one included.

Boulevard

Beau, in beta, answers calls and texts customers a booking link, and other AI writes copy or answers support questions; none changes your account.

Bookodile

Two people, one visit — each blocked only for their part#

A visit can give each part its own team member, time and room, back to back. Each person is blocked only for their own part, and your team moves the whole visit in one step.

Boulevard

Online, a customer picks the person for a single service only; with several services, the system assigns them.

These are only the main ones. See the full comparison, feature by feature

Why businesses switch from Boulevard#

Month to month, with nothing owed when you leave#

Boulevard's services agreement sets a 12-month initial term unless the order says otherwise, renews it for a further 12 months unless written notice arrives at least 30 days before the end, and states that fees for the whole term remain payable if you terminate during it. Bookodile is monthly, with no minimum term and no cancellation fee, and there is no yearly plan to commit to.

A free plan, and no subscription per location to begin with#

Boulevard has no free plan. Its entry plan, Essentials, is $143 a month billed annually or $159 monthly, for a single location with up to five providers; multi-location support starts at Premier, and every location there is a further subscription. Bookodile is free at one location with up to two active booking spots and 40 bookings a month, every add-on included — SMS aside, which need a paid plan — and beyond that bills per location plus per spot that actually took a booking — the figures for your country are on the pricing page.

Every feature on every account, no add-on prices#

On Boulevard, Forms is an add-on from $65 per location per month unless you are on Prestige, QuickBooks sync is $45, texts beyond the allowance are billed by usage, Automated Campaigns cost $2 per completed appointment, the AI receptionist is billed per location after its free period, and a second location, multi-location reporting and Google and Meta tracking start at Premier. Bookodile has one plan and no add-on prices: every account, including a free one, has every feature and add-on. The one exception is SMS, which need a paid plan and are billed per SMS, capped each month.

Rooms and equipment with a capacity, with or without a person#

Boulevard's resource scheduling attaches a room or device to a service as a second requirement the customer never sees, and still requires a service provider to be available; a capacity above one is not documented. In Bookodile a room or a piece of equipment has a capacity and its own hours, a service can need the resource alone, the person alone, or both, and the capacity is enforced when the booking is made.

A waiting list that offers the slot itself#

Boulevard's waitlist takes joins online and from staff, shows an alert on the dashboard, and then relies on someone checking the list and booking the customer by hand; the online list ignores closures and requested providers, and no automatic offer of a freed slot is documented. In Bookodile your team adds customers to the list — they cannot join it from the booking page — and when a booking is cancelled the time is offered automatically by email to whoever has waited longest for that service, with three hours to confirm, and confirming books them straight in.

Customers book with a name and a phone number, not a card and a password#

Boulevard requires a valid credit card for every online booking, offers a password at the end of a first booking, and asks a returning customer whose email or phone it already knows for that password or a code before confirming. Bookodile asks for a name plus an email or a phone number — no account, no app, no password — and holds no card, because it does not process payments.

What each one costs#

Bookodile

A base rate per location plus a rate per booking spot that actually took a booking that month, in country bands. No commission, no per-booking fee, no feature sold separately — only SMS, if you send them, are billed per SMS.

Show prices for
  • One location with three booking spots costs $68 a month.
  • Free at 1 location, up to 2 booking spots and 40 bookings a month — every add-on included; SMS need a paid plan.

Boulevard

Per location, per month, in US dollars, by plan. The page shows Essentials, Premier and Prestige by default, and Aesthetics Essentials, Aesthetics Premier and Aesthetics Prestige when 'Med Spa' is picked as the business type; Enterprise is a quote. Essentials is for a single location with up to five providers (bookable calendars) and Aesthetics Essentials for a single location with up to three; the others have unlimited professionals and are priced per location. Annual billing is labelled 'Save 10%'. Essentials is $143 a month billed annually or $159 billed monthly. Premier, Prestige, Aesthetics Premier and Aesthetics Prestige are shown at a limited-time 'fall pricing' figure for new customers ('Terms apply', no end date given) beside the normal price, so both are in the rows. The plan cards and the comparison table agree on the allowances — 250 free texts and 1,000 free email blasts a month on Essentials and Premier, 2,500 and 10,000 on Prestige — but Boulevard's help article on reading its bill gives Essentials 500 email blasts. There is no free plan, and no trial is mentioned anywhere; every button leads to a demo. The plan is the start of the bill: texts beyond the allowance are billed by monthly usage, emails beyond it at $0.01 each, Automated Campaigns at $2 per completed appointment, Forms from $65 per location per month below Prestige, QuickBooks sync at $45 per location per month, and card processing starts at 2.65%. The services agreement sets a twelve-month term where the order does not say otherwise, renewing for twelve months unless written notice arrives 30 days before the end, with fees for the whole term payable if you terminate during it.

Pricing#

A free plan that stays free#

Not a trial: a plan a small business can stay on.

Bookodile

Yes

Free at one location with up to two active booking spots and 40 bookings a month, with every feature and add-on — SMS aside, which need a paid plan. Not a trial — a plan a small business stays on. A paid plan starts with 14 days free rather than a charge. More

Boulevard

No

No free plan. The cheapest plan is Essentials, for a single location with up to five providers, at $143 a month billed annually or $159 billed monthly. Source

No commission on bookings#

No cut of a booking, no new-client fee, no per-booking charge.

Bookodile

Yes

No commission, no new-client fee, no per-booking charge. The bill is the subscription, plus any SMS you send with the SMS messages add-on, billed per SMS and capped each month. More

Boulevard

Partly

No marketplace and no cut of an ordinary booking. Two charges are per appointment: Automated Campaigns cost $2 for each completed appointment credited to a campaign message, and a checkout split across several merchant accounts carries a 1% fee on each account's share. Source

Every feature included#

Nothing sold separately — text bundles, marketing, forms, a branded app, extra locations.

Bookodile

Partly

Every feature and add-on is included — reminders, reviews, vouchers, the waiting list, forecasting, Messages, AI Chat and the website with your own domain. The one thing billed by use is SMS: the SMS messages add-on is free, and each SMS is billed monthly with a paid plan at a price per country, never more a month than a cap that starts at the plan's own price. Each location is billed at a base rate. More

Boulevard

No

Each location pays for its own plan, and add-ons are billed monthly per location on top: Forms and Charts (from $65 on the pricing page; included in Prestige and the Aesthetics plans), QuickBooks sync ($45), ePrescribe and the Medspa Add-On. Texts beyond the plan's allowance are billed by usage, emails beyond it at $0.01 each, and Automated Campaigns at $2 per completed appointment booked within seven days of a campaign message. One-time Guided Setup and Import Plus or Data Migration fees can appear on the first invoice, at amounts Boulevard does not publish. Card processing is charged per transaction, the Duo reader is bought separately, and the AI receptionist is billed per location once its free period ends. Source

The same features on every plan#

No capability reserved for a higher tier.

Bookodile

Partly

One plan, with free limits: every account, including a free one, has every feature and add-on. The one exception is SMS, which need a paid plan, because each one is billed on its invoice. More

Boulevard

No

Essentials is for a single location with up to five providers. Multi-location support and reporting, location-level billing, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel tracking, shared memberships and prepaid product units are Premier and above; Forms and Charts is included only from Prestige; the APIs and enterprise-grade integrations are Enterprise. The plan table ticks group booking, resource scheduling, offer codes, the referral and loyalty programmes and ratings on Essentials, though Boulevard's help articles on Offers and rating requests still say Premier, Prestige and Enterprise only, and its integrations article puts Zapier, Shopify and single sign-on at Premier and Klaviyo at Enterprise. Source

No minimum term or cancellation fee#

Bookodile

Yes

Monthly, no minimum term, no cancellation fee. There is no yearly plan. More

Boulevard

No

The services agreement sets a 12-month initial term where the order does not specify one and renews it for further 12-month terms unless written notice of non-renewal is given at least 30 days before the term ends. Fees for the whole term remain payable if the agreement is terminated during it, payments are stated as non-refundable, and fees may change at renewal or on 30 days' notice. Source

Processes your customers' card payments#

Takes the customer's money at booking or at the till.

Bookodile

No

Bookodile does not take your customers' money. The payment-tracking add-on records what you were paid; payment stays between you and the customer. More

Boulevard

Yes

Boulevard's own processing, 'starting at 2.65%', with per-transaction cents not published. The pricing FAQ says you buy the Boulevard Duo to take payments ($149 on Boulevard's shop); Apple Pay and Google Pay, tips, buy-now-pay-later at 6% + $0.30, instant payouts at an extra 1.75%, and the Offset surcharge programme sit on top. Merchant onboarding is built around a US bank account. Source

Taking bookings#

A hosted booking page#

Bookodile

Yes

bookodile.com/your-business, with your logo, colour, services — each with its photo, when you add one — and hours. One page per location. More

Boulevard

Partly

The product is a booking overlay that slides over your own website. A standalone booking link exists, but the help centre says to contact support to get it; deep links to a service or category can be shared and open in a new tab, and a Client Portal address serves existing customers. No self-service hosted page address is documented. Source

Booking on your own website#

An embedded widget or button, not just a link.

Bookodile

Yes

One snippet embeds the whole flow in any site — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace or hand-built — inline or behind a Book-now button in your brand colour. A QR code is generated for print. More

Boulevard

Yes

A business-specific script in the site's head, with buttons pointing at #book-now to open the overlay. Install guides for WordPress, Squarespace, Shopify, Square, Weebly and the standard Wix editor. Custom booking flows through the API are Enterprise only. Source

Customers book without an account or an app#

Bookodile

Yes

The customer gives only the details you require — a name, and an email, a phone number or both. No account, no app, no password. My Bookings, a web page they sign in to with an emailed code or Google, shows every booking they hold, if they want it. More

Boulevard

Partly

A new customer books without an account and is offered a password at the last step. A returning customer whose email or phone is already known is asked for that password or a verification code before confirming. A valid credit card is required for every online booking, and one Boulevard client account is shared across every Boulevard business. Source

Several services in one booking#

Bookodile

Partly

Combo services chain stages into one booking, and the extras you configure are offered during booking, in more than one round. Customers do not pick arbitrary pairs from the catalogue — you decide which combinations exist. More

Boulevard

Yes

Customers add several services to one booking. The business fixes the sequence with numbered Scheduling Order values or leaves it flexible; every service in an appointment must fall on the same day. Source

Back-to-back services with different team members#

Each person is blocked only for their own part, not for the whole visit.

Bookodile

Yes

Each stage of a combo can have its own team member, its own duration and its own room, booked back to back. Each person is blocked only for their own stage, never for the whole visit. Staff move the whole visit in one step, with the times that fit every person in it shown first. More

Boulevard

Partly

Multi-staff appointments are listed on every plan. Precision Scheduling handles two services that need different team members and limits the wait between service or staff transitions to 15 minutes; each service in the appointment is its own line with its own provider and time. Online, the customer can choose the professional only when one service is selected — with several, the system assigns them — and an add-on service must be performed by the same person as its base service. Source

Rooms, chairs and equipment as bookable resources#

With a capacity, and bookable without a person.

Bookodile

Yes

Rooms, chairs and equipment with a capacity and their own hours. A service can need a resource alone, a person alone, or both, and capacity is enforced when the booking is made. A service linked to several takes whichever one is free; a booking never holds two at once. Each one is open to anyone who does its services, or kept for named people when it belongs to them — three juniors share a chair while the master has his own. More

Boulevard

Partly

On every plan: the pricing page's plan table ticks resource scheduling on Essentials, and the help article names no plan. Rooms and devices are grouped in categories and attached to a service as a second requirement, held for the whole service including processing and transition time, and hidden from the customer. A service provider must still be available; a capacity above one and a booking with no person are not documented. Source

Classes and events with a capacity#

Bookodile

Yes

Events with a capacity and a registration list for one-off things; a recurring class is a service on a resource with a capacity, so it fills up and stops. More

Boulevard

Not published

Nothing in the help centre or on the feature pages documents a class or an event with a capacity. Boulevard's 'Group booking' is one customer booking services for several guests at the same time, which is a different thing.

A different price per team member#

Bookodile

Yes

A service can be priced per team member, or per category such as Junior and Senior. The customer sees each person's price as they choose who, and the category's name too if you show it. More

Boulevard

Yes

Every service's price can be set per role or per person, with an online-bookability switch per person as well. Customer-specific prices ('Accommodations') exist too. On every plan. Source

A different duration per team member#

Bookodile

Yes

A service can take a different time per team member. Leave someone blank and they use the service's own duration. More

Boulevard

Yes

Duration, processing time, finishing time and transition time can each be set per role or per person. On every plan. Source

Buffer time that blocks the calendar#

Bookodile

Yes

Each service can have its own buffer after it, up to 120 minutes, which blocks the person and any resource it used. Enforced on the booking page and in the booking API. More

Boulevard

Yes

Four timing blocks per service: duration, a processing time in which the person is free but the customer is not, a finishing time with the same person, and a transition time for clean-up in which the person is unavailable. All four can be customised per team member. Source

A waiting list with automatic offers#

A cancellation is offered to whoever is waiting, without you doing anything.

Bookodile

Yes

Your team adds customers to the list; they cannot join it from the booking page. When a booking is cancelled, the time is offered automatically by email to whoever has waited longest for that service, with three hours to confirm — or until the time starts, if sooner — and confirming books them straight in. If nobody confirms, it goes to the next person waiting for that service within about ten minutes, as long as the time is still ahead and still free. More

Boulevard

Partly

Customers join online (a card is required but not charged) or staff add them. A dashboard alert shows new joins, and staff are told to check the list regularly and book the customer themselves. No automatic offer of a freed slot is documented, and the online list does not take closures or requested providers into account. Source

Recurring bookings#

Bookodile

Partly

Your team can repeat a booking of one service from the calendar — weekly, every two weeks or monthly, up to 52 visits — and cancel one visit or the whole series. A combo or a booking with add-ons cannot be repeated. Customers cannot book a recurring appointment themselves. More

Boulevard

Partly

Standing appointments are created by the business only, must be set when the appointment is first created, run to 52 occurrences at a time, and the help centre says the system does not flag conflicts when it creates them. Time blocks can recur for up to a year. Source

Booking rules#

Minimum notice, how far ahead, approval, cancellation window, slot spacing.

Bookodile

Yes

Minimum notice (up to 72 hours), how far ahead (up to 365 days), start times every 5 to 60 minutes, auto-confirm or your approval, and a cancellation window (up to 168 hours) with late cancellation allowed or not — one set of rules per location. More

Boulevard

Partly

Minimum lead time and maximum advance per location, a cancellation deadline in hours, and online-bookability switches per person and per service. Slot spacing is Precision Scheduling's interval of 15, 30, 60, 120 or 240 minutes, 60 by default, and changing it means contacting support. No approval step for a request is documented. Source

Customers cancel or reschedule themselves#

Bookodile

Yes

Customers reschedule or cancel themselves from the link in their confirmation and reminder emails, or in My Bookings, outside your cancellation window, and can tell you why. A reschedule moves the whole visit in one step to a free time with the same team members and price, and the customer's calendar event moves with it. Inside the window they cannot reschedule online, and can cancel only if you allow late cancellations, once they accept they may be charged. More

Boulevard

Yes

A manage-appointment link in the confirmation and reminder emails and the Client Portal let customers reschedule or cancel outside the cancellation deadline. Self-rescheduling shows only the original provider's availability, and group appointments must be rescheduled by phone. Source

Deposits and no-show protection#

Bookodile

No

No card on file and no deposits, because Bookodile does not process payments. A no-show is marked on the booking and counted on the customer's record, never charged. You can let customers cancel late once they accept you may charge them; collecting it is up to you. More

Boulevard

Yes

A card on file is mandatory for every online booking. Deposits are a percentage per service or per team member, card only, refunded by hand. A late-cancellation or no-show fee is a percentage or a fixed amount up to 100% of the appointment, 24 hours by default, charged when staff mark the appointment as late-cancelled or no-show. On every plan. Source

Extras offered while booking#

Bookodile

Yes

Extras are offered while booking, per service or per category, in up to several rounds, with an optional discount for adding them. A service can be offered only as an extra, off the list of services. More

Boulevard

Yes

Add-on services are offered after the base service is chosen and must be performed by the same person. Service modifiers carry their own price and duration online, memberships and packages appear on the first page of self-booking, and a tip can be requested at booking. Source

What customers see#

A website for your business#

More than a booking page: pages for your services, team and story, made for you, on a domain of your own.

Bookodile

Yes

Included in every account, the free one too. Built from your booking setup — services, prices, team, hours and reviews stay in step with it — with templates (switching one keeps every page, or takes a template whole with its texts rewritten for your business from your setup), one page or several in any of them, your own look, extra pages, languages, your Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube as icons in the footer, and a photo gallery in categories you name — a category linked to a service opens its photos with that service's price and a Book button — photos made or enhanced with AI, changed by asking in your own words — pointing at any part of it on the preview — or by hand, typing straight onto the page and moving, copying or changing its sections where you see them, on a computer or a phone, and nothing public until you publish. An old website comes over by asking: its pages rebuilt as sections, with their own words and photos. It starts at yourname.bookodile.com; connect a domain you already own, at no cost, and it moves to www.yourbusiness.com. Every Book button opens your booking page at bookodile.com/your-business — the one under each team member with that person already chosen — and a Website visits report counts who came, from where, and how many booked, without cookies. Running promotions, upcoming events and announcements show on it too, and update themselves as they start and end. No blog, no online shop, and no code of your own. More

Boulevard

Not published

Not published. No page on joinblvd.com, in its pricing table or in Boulevard's help centre offers a website for the business: its self-booking page sells an overlay that 'keeps clients on your website', and the help centre's website articles install that overlay on a site built with WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, Square or Weebly.

Makes and improves your photos with AI#

Inside the product: make a picture for your website or profile from a description, or improve one you took — its light, its background, what is in it. Stock photos, ordinary filters, a background remover alone, or AI images only for social posts are partly.

Bookodile

Yes

Included in every account, the free one too, up to 30 photos a month per account, each try counted. Take a photo on your phone and Enhance it, a team member's or a service's too: in your own words in any language, with ideas for your kind of business, by picking a look from pictures, or by putting a person or finished work into a photo of your own place, with before and after to compare. Create a photo from a description for a place on your website that has none — the top of a page, a service's cover, a card, or your gallery — in your own photo style. Then say what should change, like "remove the hand" or "clear the background", and it edits that photo, keeping every version. AI Chat can make several at once. You choose each one, and nothing is public until you publish. It works on your website's photos: it will not make a person's face, your team's portraits or the outside of your place, because customers should see the real ones. More

Boulevard

Partly

AI images for marketing emails only: Boulevard says Boulevard Marketing 'uses AI to suggest subject lines, email copy, and even generate custom imagery' tailored to the brand. No page read describes making a picture for a website or profile, or improving a photo the business took. Source

Listed in a consumer marketplace#

A directory where customers find you — and your competitors beside you.

Bookodile

No

No marketplace. Your booking page carries only your business, and no competitor is shown beside you — which also means it sends you no new customers.

Boulevard

No

No consumer directory. Boulevard describes its model as direct booking through the business's own website and contrasts it with a consumer-facing marketplace. Source

An app for customers#

Bookodile

No

No consumer app to download. Customers book in the browser. My Bookings, a web page they sign in to with an emailed code or Google, lists every booking they hold with any Bookodile business; there they cancel, keep their details up to date and can turn off a business's SMS. More

Boulevard

No

Customers use a web Client Portal for history, forms, wallet, memberships and cancelling or rescheduling. Boulevard's app, Boulevard Professional, is for staff. Source

Booking page languages#

What your customers read.

Bookodile

Yes

The booking page, the embedded widget and every email about a booking come in 17 languages: English, Slovak, Czech, Vietnamese, German, Hungarian, Polish, Ukrainian, Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, Dutch, Romanian, Croatian, Slovenian and Chinese. Each location has a main language — English, Slovak, Czech or Vietnamese — and can add up to seven more, from the same list as its website. With more than one, the booking page shows a language switch and opens in the customer's own language when the location offers it (from the link, their last choice or their browser), otherwise in the main one. Every email and SMS about a booking goes out in the language it was made in; SMS in Ukrainian or Chinese go out in English, because they would not fit one SMS, while their emails and booking page stay in that language. Service names, descriptions, team bios and the location's other texts are translated automatically by AI, and the owner can correct any translation; names are never translated. The booking page's own wording in the 13 languages beyond English, Slovak, Czech and Vietnamese was written by AI and has not yet been read by a native speaker. What your customers read and what you read in the dashboard are separate settings. More

Boulevard

Not published

No help-centre article or feature page documents which languages the booking overlay or the Client Portal can show. Third-party listings say English; Boulevard itself says nothing either way, about English or about Slovak, Czech, Vietnamese or German.

Your business's time zone, shown correctly#

Bookodile

Yes

Every time is shown in the business's own zone, including on your dashboard. A customer in another zone sees both clocks before they confirm. Locations in different zones each keep their own; the group's combined monthly totals count on one clock. Each location writes its times on a 24-hour or a 12-hour clock (2:30 PM) — its country's until you pick one — on the booking page, in emails and SMS, on the website and in the dashboard alike. More

Boulevard

Partly

Each location has a time zone that drives operations — same-day reminder texts go out from 8am location time, gift cards at 7am local time, the nightly sign-out at local midnight. How a customer in another zone sees times on the overlay is not documented. Source

Branding#

Logo, colour, custom CSS, custom domain.

Bookodile

Partly

Your own domain, at no cost: connect one you already own and your website moves to www.yourbusiness.com (the website row). The booking page its Book buttons open stays at bookodile.com/your-business, and the widget puts the same booking inside any other site you run, on that site's domain. Your logo, a second logo for dark backgrounds, a logo that links back to your own website, your brand colour with a contrast check, and announcements along the top of your booking page and your website. No custom CSS. More

Boulevard

Partly

Your logo and a location banner on the overlay and in emails, an email theme with 11 fonts, heading and button colours and three button shapes, and a custom cancellation-policy address. Custom CSS, a custom domain and removing Boulevard's own branding are not documented. Source

Dark mode on the booking page#

Bookodile

Yes

The hosted page follows the customer's device, and a sun-and-moon button lets them switch; My Bookings keeps the same choice. Your brand colour is adjusted to stay visible on dark. The embedded widget stays light on purpose, so it matches the website it sits in. More

Boulevard

Not published

Nothing on the site or in the help centre mentions a dark theme for the overlay or the Client Portal; a search for it returns unrelated articles. The overlay is described in accessibility terms only.

Book buttons on Google, Instagram and Facebook#

Bookodile

No

No Reserve with Google or Instagram integration. Your booking link, bookodile.com/your-business, goes in your Google profile, your bio or a post like any link. Campaign tracking, an included add-on, gives ready-tagged links for Google, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok and counts the bookings each one brings.

Boulevard

Yes

Reserve with Google on the Google Business Profile at no extra fee, limited to US locations and applied to every location at once, plus Facebook and Instagram Book Now buttons through Meta Business Manager. All open the standard overlay. Source

Found on Google under your own name#

Your booking page or profile is listed for search engines, so someone searching for your business finds it.

Bookodile

Yes

On from the start, once an automatic check of the business name passes — normally within minutes: your booking page is in the sitemap search engines read, under your business's name, with your own description and address as the snippet, and Bing and others are told when it changes. A published website is listed the same way at its own address, from its first online booking or two weeks after publishing. One switch keeps both out. Search engines still decide what to show and when. More

Boulevard

Not published

Not published. Booking runs as an overlay on the business's own website, a standalone booking link comes from support, and there is no marketplace profile; nothing on Boulevard's site or in its help centre says whether a booking page is listed by search engines or offers search settings.

Running the business#

An AI assistant that sets up and runs your account#

Ask in your own words and it explains, sets things up and moves bookings. AI that only answers your customers, only writes copy or only answers support questions is partly.

Bookodile

Yes

AI Chat, in every account including the free one, with a daily allowance per account. Ask in English, Slovak, Czech or Vietnamese, typed or spoken: it answers how-to questions from this documentation and your own settings, explains why a day has no free times and who changed what; sets up team, services, prices, hours, rooms, booking rules, add-ons, logo and brand colour, and the order of your services and team; writes bios, your about text and service descriptions; builds and changes your website's draft and brings over the words of an old site; and moves, cancels or hands over bookings and blocks time, once or repeating. It shows every change first and waits for you to apply it, with Undo — only texts and the website's draft go in at once, still with Undo, and the website stays private until you publish. It answers you, not your customers, and does not create bookings. More

Boulevard

Partly

AI that answers callers, writes marketing and answers support questions. Beau, an AI receptionist in beta, answers the business's phone, answers questions from its service menu, pricing and availability, takes messages, and texts the caller a booking link with the service already chosen, or a client-portal link to reschedule or cancel, so the client finishes it themselves. Boulevard's help centre prices it at $125 per location per month for the first 200 minutes and $0.60 a minute beyond, its texts at standard rates, free until the end of November 2026 and charged only in a month it answers a call. Billie, the AI agent in Help Chat, suggests answers from Boulevard's help articles before handing over to a person; the marketing tools suggest email subject lines, copy and images; and Boulevard's AI page also counts Precision Scheduling, which it says 'learns your business rhythm to predict availability'. No assistant that sets up or changes the account when the business asks is documented. Source

Calendar#

Day, week and month; drag to move; blockers.

Bookodile

Yes

Day, week and month. Drag a booking to a new time or a different person — the calendar names any clash first, and Undo puts it back for ten seconds after. Block out time for the business, one person or a resource — once, or repeating every day, on chosen weekdays, every two weeks or every month. Add a walk-in; filter by person, service or resource. A visit with several services moves as one — dragged, or from the booking dialog, which shows the times that fit everyone first and still takes any other day and time, listing what it clashes with. More

Boulevard

Yes

Day, 4-day, week and today views — the week view fits three team members, the 4-day view six — with staff columns and filters, click-and-drag rescheduling with a prompt to notify the customer, time blocks that recur for up to a year, colour by person or by service, and a front-desk status board. Source

A native app for your team#

Bookodile

No

No native app. The dashboard is a web app that installs to a phone's home screen and works there, online. No push notifications: the team is told about bookings by email. More

Boulevard

Yes

Boulevard Professional for iOS 15.5 and Android 7 and up: calendar, booking and rescheduling, checkout, customer profiles, forms and charts, time blocks, messaging and performance figures. Boulevard describes it as complementing the dashboard rather than replacing it, so some owner functions stay on the desktop. Source

Several locations in one account#

Bookodile

Yes

Up to 50 locations in one account — a guard against misuse, raised on request — each with its own team, hours, services and booking page. A new location can start from one you have — its services with prices, hours, booking rules, logo and colours and website — and takes the team members you pick. Customers are one list across them, a team member can work at several with one sign-in, and a group dashboard totals them. The free plan covers one location; each location is billed at a base rate. More

Boulevard

Extra cost

Each location is its own per-location subscription, and Essentials is for a single location. Multi-location support and reporting, location-level billing and inter-location reporting are Premier and above; customers, gift cards and memberships work across locations. Boulevard's multi-location page markets it to businesses with 2 to 20 locations, beside separate pages for franchises and enterprise. Source

Roles and permissions#

Custom roles, per-permission control.

Bookodile

Yes

Owner, Manager, Employee and Receptionist ready-made, or build a role and set each permission by hand — including whether someone sees only their own bookings, customers and figures, takes bookings at all, can message customers, or manages billing, which only the owner can give. More

Boulevard

Yes

Default groups Admin, Location Manager, Front Desk and Service Provider, plus custom groups with granular permissions across setup, staff, catalogue, customers, appointments, checkout, sales, marketing, messages and reports, set business-wide or per location. Separate staff roles control which services a person performs. Source

A history of who changed what#

Every change to bookings, customers, services and settings, with who made it and when. A booking's own history alone is partly.

Bookodile

Yes

Activity records changes to bookings, customers, services, resources, the team, time off, blocked time and settings: what changed from what to what, who did it — a team member by name, the customer, or automatic — how and when. Each role sees the history of what it can open, a booking's own history sits in the booking window with what the customer was sent, and it exports to CSV. Kept 24 months, in every account. Not recorded: what a role may do, prices set per team member or category, payment records, billing and add-on records such as vouchers; a note shows as edited, never its words. More

Boulevard

Yes

An Audit Log of staff access and actions: searchable, filtered by actor, target and date, with staff activity timelines and each event's changed values, IP address and location. The help centre adds that only Admins see it until they give the Audit Logs permission to other groups, that updating an appointment records its services, prices, dates and the customer record, and that tracking began on 1 January 2026 for some actions and 1 May 2026 for others. Neither page names a plan. Source

Reports#

Bookodile

Yes

Revenue, bookings, average value and cancellation rate over the last twelve months, charted month by month, with bookings by status, new customers, top services and the team ranked by revenue; per location or across all. A no-show counts as a booking, never as revenue. Website visits shows who came to your website, from where, and how many booked. Forecasting, revenue split, booking sources and payments received are included add-ons. The period is fixed at twelve months. More

Boulevard

Yes

Two dashboards plus 29 detailed reports in the new reporting suite, which Boulevard's article still calls a beta — appointments, service, retail, membership and package sales, staff performance with utilisation and retention, client retention, commission, gift-card balances, campaign performance, waitlist — exported as csv, xls, pdf or png, on every plan. A separate help article offers a Snowflake Data Share, updated hourly, to qualifying Enterprise businesses. Source

A leaderboard for the team#

Team members see where they rank on bookings or sales, with a winner. A report only managers can open is partly.

Bookodile

Yes

A monthly competition on bookings or revenue that the whole team sees, with a winner per category if you want one, results frozen and emailed on the 1st, and a Hall of fame. Revenue amounts stay hidden from the team unless you show them. Up to three at once, per location. An included add-on. More

Boulevard

Partly

A Staff Performance report compares team members, and a permission decides whether staff see only their own data or the whole location's. In the team app each person sees a snapshot of their own metrics, with no ranking against colleagues. Source

Point of sale, stock and payroll#

Bookodile

No

No point of sale, no stock, no payroll — a walk-in is a booking. The included payment-tracking add-on records what each visit was paid, by cash, card or transfer, with part-payments and tips shared between the people who did the work, and Revenue split works out each team member's share at the percentage you set, month by month. More

Boulevard

Partly

A full point of sale with the Duo reader, cash drawer, receipts, split and partial payments, refunds, gift cards, tips and buy-now-pay-later; inventory with quantities, shrinkage, suppliers and purchase orders; commissions, a time clock and QuickBooks sync at $45 per location per month. Boulevard does not support hourly pay calculation, and no payroll run is documented. Source

Confirmations and reminders#

Email and text; included or charged.

Bookodile

Yes

Confirmations, a reminder the day before at 8:00, two hours before or both — your choice — changes, cancellations and follow-ups by email, all included, in the language the customer booked in. By SMS too with the SMS messages add-on: the add-on is free, and SMS need a paid plan — billed monthly with it, per SMS, capped each month. SMS reach numbers in 14 countries today; Czechia, the US and Canada are coming soon. More

Boulevard

Partly

Email confirmations and an email reminder one to five days ahead are included, and the basic two-day text reminder with default settings is free. Any other text — a confirmation, a same-day reminder, two-way texting — needs a dedicated number and usage rates: the pricing page includes 250 free texts per location a month on Essentials and Premier and 2,500 on Prestige, and Boulevard's usage-rates article bills segments beyond them in monthly tiers from $25 for up to 500 to $200 for 7,001 to 10,000 — tiers it calls illustrative, with each account's set by its subscription agreement. Source

Messages with one customer, in one inbox#

Write to a customer and read their answer inside the product — not a bulk campaign. One-way only is partly.

Bookodile

Yes

Messages, in every account: write to one customer from the calendar or their page by email, SMS or both, and read their answer in one inbox, with unread ones marked and the team told by email. Email is included; SMS need the SMS messages add-on on a paid plan, billed per SMS — Czech, US and Canadian numbers coming soon. The customer answers on a page the message links to, not by replying to the email or text, and cannot start a conversation. No WhatsApp. More

Boulevard

Yes

Two-way texting with conversation history on every plan from Essentials, from a dedicated number for each location: staff text one customer and read the replies in a Messages inbox on the dashboard and in the Professional App, also reachable from the customer's profile. Each plan includes a monthly allowance of texts; every text sent and received beyond it is billed by monthly usage. Source

Email and text campaigns#

Bookodile

Partly

No bulk email or SMS campaigns. Included add-ons instead: a win-back sequence of up to three emails to customers overdue for a visit, judged by their own usual gap, never to anyone with a booking ahead and starting over after their next visit, the later ones with a one-time discount code; promotions and announcements on your booking page and your website, an announcement optionally kept on the booking page for customers who have booked before; and Campaign tracking, which shows which ads and links bring bookings. More

Boulevard

Extra cost

Text and email blasts to saved audiences within the plan allowance, then $0.01 per email and text tiers. Five Automated Campaigns — Fill Slow Days, Last-Minute Openings, Reminder to Book, Rescue Lost Clients, Birthday — cost $2 per completed appointment. Google Analytics and Meta Pixel tracking are Premier and above; the pricing page's plan table ticks offer codes and the referral and loyalty programmes on Essentials, though the help article on Offers still says Premier, Prestige and Enterprise only. Source

Reviews#

Collect, publish, and ask for Google reviews.

Bookodile

Yes

Collect a rating and comment after each visit, publish them on your booking page and website when you choose — all of them, never hand-picked — reply in public or privately, and ask every customer, not only the happy ones, for a Google review in the same email. More

Boulevard

Yes

Rating requests by email or text from one hour to one week after checkout — the emails free, the texts at usage rates; a four- or five-star rating prompts the customer to share it to Google, Yelp or Facebook, three stars and below stay internal, and the business replies by email. The pricing page's plan table includes 'Ratings & feedback' on Essentials and every plan above it, while the help article still says 'Available to Premier, Prestige, and Enterprise customers only'. Showing ratings on the booking page is not documented. Source

Gift vouchers, discount codes and promotions#

Also packages and memberships.

Bookodile

Partly

Gift vouchers, discount codes, promotions and upsell discounts, all included. No packages or memberships, and vouchers are issued by you rather than sold online. More

Boulevard

Partly

Gift cards, physical and digital, redeemable at any location and sold online, where the customer picks one of the business's amounts or enters a custom one — the gift-card article says online amounts must be at least $25 and no more than $500; memberships with autopay and packages sold online. Promo codes ('Offers', by percentage or amount with date and time limits) are Premier and above in the help article on Offers, though the pricing page's plan table ticks them on Essentials; the referral programme's article says it is on every plan, and the plan table ticks the loyalty programme on every plan. Source

Google or Outlook calendar sync#

Bookodile

Partly

Bookings are pushed into one Google Calendar per location as they are made, moved or cancelled. One direction only — Google events do not block your availability — not one calendar per team member, and no Outlook sync. Customers can add their own booking to Google, Outlook or Apple Calendar. More

Boulevard

Yes

Two-way sync with Google Calendar, iCloud and Outlook; personal events become blocks that stop online booking. Only two months of appointments sync, Google and Outlook refresh once a day, iCloud every five minutes, and recurring personal events are not supported. Source

Intake and consent forms#

Bookodile

Partly

A consent checkbox in your own wording, with a link to your privacy policy — each customer's agreement is recorded with the date and the wording they saw — invoice details that can be optional or required, and a notes field. No custom intake forms or questions, and no e-signatures. More

Boulevard

Extra cost

The Forms and Charts add-on starts at $65 per location per month and is included in Prestige and the Aesthetics plans: intake and consent templates, notes and treatment records, a typed or drawn signature, fields that write into the customer profile, delivery with the confirmation and reminder emails, and completion on an iPad. Photo markup and supervisor sign-off are a further add-on outside the Aesthetics plans. Source

Your data: export, import, API#

Bookodile

Partly

Export bookings, customers and the activity log to CSV whenever you like. No import tool yet — customers from another tool are added one at a time or as they book — and no public API. More

Boulevard

Partly

Client lists and audiences export to CSV with name, mobile number and email, and reports to csv, xls, pdf or png. Imports are done by the onboarding team, with one-time Import Plus or Data Migration fees at unpublished amounts. The API is Enterprise only and Zapier starts at Premier. After a termination notice, data stays available for no more than 30 days. Source

Support#

Channels and hours; whether onboarding costs extra.

Bookodile

Yes

Email support, included, with the documentation at bookodile.com/docs behind it, and AI Chat in the dashboard, which answers how-to questions from that documentation and from your own settings. A new business is walked through its setup in AI Chat right after signing up — its services, texts and website — at no cost. No phone line, and no chat with a person. More

Boulevard

Yes

Help chat in the dashboard and the app — an AI agent first, then people — Monday to Saturday, 9am to 9pm Eastern; email answered within one business day; phone by request. An assigned onboarding specialist, training and data-migration help on every plan, with one-time Guided Setup and migration fees that can appear on the first invoice at amounts Boulevard does not publish. Source

Where Boulevard is stronger#

Being straight about this is what makes the rest of the page worth reading.

It takes the money, and everything around it#

Boulevard runs its own card processing, starting at 2.65%, with a card reader, tips, a card on file for every online booking, deposits and no-show fees, gift cards sold online, memberships with autopay, packages, buy-now-pay-later, instant payouts and a surcharge programme that shifts the card fee to the customer. Bookodile takes none of this. It records what you were paid; the money stays between you and your customer.

Precision Scheduling and four timing blocks per service#

Each service carries a duration, a processing time in which the person is free for someone else, a finishing time and a transition time, all settable per person, and Precision Scheduling picks the slot, the provider and the service order and keeps a staff hand-off to 15 minutes. Bookodile's timing is a duration per team member and a buffer after the service that blocks the person and the room.

Forms, charting and signatures#

The Forms and Charts add-on gives intake and consent templates, typed or drawn signatures, notes and treatment records, photo markup and sign-off, sent with the confirmation email and completed on an iPad at the front desk. Bookodile has a consent checkbox in your own wording, invoice details that can be optional or required, and a notes field — no custom forms and no e-signatures.

Texting, campaigns and a phone that answers itself#

Two-way texting on a dedicated number, text and email blasts to saved audiences, five automated campaigns that fill slow days and win back lapsed customers, rating requests that send happy customers to Google, and an AI receptionist in beta that answers the phone — the texts beyond the plan's allowance, the campaigns and the receptionist priced by use on top of the plan. Bookodile has no texting number and nothing that answers calls: its Messages write to one customer by email, or by SMS with the SMS messages add-on on a paid plan — to numbers in 14 countries, with the US and Canada coming soon — and the customer answers on a page the message links to rather than by replying to the text. Its included marketing is a win-back sequence and promotions on the booking page, and its review email asks every customer, not only the happy ones, for a Google review.

A native staff app, deeper integrations and longer support hours#

Boulevard Professional on iOS and Android, Reserve with Google and the Meta booking buttons, two-way calendar sync with Google, iCloud and Outlook, Zapier from Premier, an API on Enterprise, 29 reports in four export formats, and chat support six days a week with an onboarding specialist and data-migration help. Bookodile's dashboard is a web app that installs to the home screen, its calendar sync is one way to Google, it has no public API, and support is by email, with AI Chat in the dashboard for how-to questions.

Who Boulevard is for

Boulevard sells to salons, spas, medspas, barbershops, nail salons and massage businesses — its own list — and above all to groups: its site has pages for two-to-twenty-location operators, franchises and enterprise, and its own press release from July 2025 counts 5,000-plus businesses and nearly $5 billion a year in payments processed through it. Payments are the centre of the product. Boulevard is its own payment facilitator, sells the card reader, requires a card for every online booking, and layers a surcharge programme, instant payouts, buy-now-pay-later and a cash-advance product on top. Everything it publishes is American: prices in dollars, a Google integration limited to US locations, payments onboarding built around a US bank account, texting registered with US carriers, support hours in Eastern time. It names no other country.

Bookodile is a booking system, not a payments company. It is for a business where the people are priced and timed differently, where a room or a piece of equipment is the real limit, where one visit can involve two people, and where the owner wants every feature on one plan with no minimum term. It has no card processing at all, and its booking pages read in 17 languages, Slovak, Czech and Vietnamese among them.

The pricing model, in practice

Boulevard charges per location, per month, by plan. Essentials is for a single location with up to five providers; Premier and Prestige are unlimited and priced per location; three Aesthetics plans, shown for the 'Med Spa' business type, fold in forms and charting; Enterprise is a quote. Essentials is $143 a month billed annually or $159 billed monthly. Premier and Prestige are normally $293 and $410 per location per month billed annually — $325 and $455 billed monthly — and on the day this page was checked both were shown beside a lower limited-time "fall pricing" figure for new customers, with no end date given.

The plan is the start of the bill, not the end of it. Texts beyond the monthly allowance — 250 on Essentials — are billed by usage; emails beyond the allowance cost a cent each; Automated Campaigns cost $2 per completed appointment they are credited with; Forms is from $65 per location per month below Prestige; QuickBooks sync is $45; the card reader is $149; and one-time setup and data-migration fees can appear on the first invoice at amounts Boulevard does not publish. Card processing starts at 2.65%. The services agreement defaults to a twelve-month term that renews for another twelve unless written notice is given 30 days before the end, and fees for the term remain payable if you leave during it.

Bookodile charges per location plus per booking spot that actually took a booking that month, with every feature and add-on included. The one thing billed by use is SMS, which need a paid plan and are billed per SMS on its invoice, capped each month. It is free at one location with up to two active spots and 40 bookings a month. The figures for your country are on the pricing page and the model is explained in What Bookodile costs.

Be honest about what each bill buys. Boulevard's includes payments, a point of sale, two-way texting and forms — things Bookodile does not do at any price. If you need those inside the booking, the comparison is not about the subscription.

Two services, two people

Boulevard's answer is Precision Scheduling, and it is a real one. Its help centre lists a staff change during an appointment among the factors the system handles: when a customer books two services that need different team members, it works out the transition, and it limits any wait between service or staff changes to 15 minutes. Its Prioritize Efficiency mode picks the provider and, when several services are booked, the order — or the business fixes the order itself with numbered Scheduling Order values. Inside the appointment each service is its own line with its own provider and its own time: editing a ticket lets staff change the team member or the duration per service. Moving it works the same way. Boulevard's rescheduling article says that when an appointment holds more than one service, staff are prompted to move each service in turn, starting with the earliest, and every one of them must still fall on the same day; a customer rescheduling online is offered only the times of the provider they first booked. Blocking follows the timing blocks per service — the person is unavailable for the service's duration and its transition time, and free during its processing time. What the help centre does not say in so many words is that the first person is released the moment the second person's service begins; the per-service lines and the transition language are the evidence, and this page does not go further than that.

The other limit is on the customer's side. Online, the customer can choose the professional "only if there is one service selected". With two or more, Boulevard's first-available modes — Prioritize Efficiency, Equal Opportunity, Less Busy Providers — assign the team members, and an add-on service must be performed by the same person as the base service it hangs off.

In Bookodile the same visit is a combo service: two services as stages of one booking, each stage with its own team member, its own duration and its own room if it needs one, and each person blocked only for their own stage, never for the whole visit. Staff move or cancel the whole visit in one step from the booking dialog, which shows the times that fit every person in it first and still takes any other time, listing what it clashes with — or move it by dragging any of its services in the calendar. The honest difference in the other direction is that a combo is defined by the business: customers do not put any two services together themselves, as they can on Boulevard; you decide which combinations exist.

Switching from Boulevard

  • Your agreement. Read your order form first: the initial term, the renewal date and the 30-day notice window decide when a switch costs nothing extra. Boulevard's agreement says fees for the term remain payable if you terminate inside it.
  • Customers. Boulevard exports a client list or audience to CSV — name, mobile, email. Bookodile has no import tool yet; customers are created the first time they book, and your team can add anyone by hand. Export while you still have access: data is available for no more than 30 days after a termination notice.
  • Bookings. Boulevard's reports export to csv, xls, pdf or png. Bookodile does not import bookings; run the two side by side until the Boulevard calendar empties, then switch the link.
  • Your website. Boulevard's booking is a script in your site's head with buttons pointing at #book-now. That comes out; Bookodile's snippet goes in, inline or behind a button, and you also get a hosted page at bookodile.com/your-business and a QR code. If you would rather not keep the site itself, Bookodile includes a website built from your booking setup, which a domain you already own connects to at no cost.
  • Reserve with Google and the Meta buttons. Boulevard integrations with no Bookodile equivalent. Your Google profile can still carry the booking link, and Campaign tracking, an included add-on, gives ready-tagged links for Google, Instagram and Facebook and counts the bookings each one brings.
  • Money. Cards on file, deposits, no-show fees, gift-card balances, memberships with autopay and packages all live in Boulevard. Bookodile takes no payments, sells no memberships or packages, and its vouchers are issued by you rather than sold online. Settle balances and plan the card side before you move.
  • Forms and texts. Completed forms, charts and signatures stay in Boulevard — export what you must keep. The dedicated texting number has no Bookodile counterpart. Bookodile's Messages write to one customer from the calendar or their page, by email or by SMS with the SMS messages add-on on a paid plan; the customer answers on a page the message links to rather than by replying to the text, and the answers arrive in one inbox. Its SMS reach numbers in 14 countries today, with the US and Canada coming soon; until then a customer list in either is reached by email.

Where each one fits

Choose Boulevard if you want the money inside the booking — card processing, a card on file, deposits and no-show fees, memberships and gift cards — or forms and charting, two-way texting and campaigns, an AI receptionist on the phone, a native staff app, and reporting across a group of US locations, and you can commit to a per-location plan on a twelve-month agreement.

Choose Bookodile if you want no minimum term, a free plan a small business can stay on, every feature on every account (SMS need a paid plan), one visit with two people that your team moves as one, an AI assistant that sets up your account and moves bookings when you ask, a room or a piece of equipment bookable without a person, a waiting list that offers the slot itself, customers who book without a card or a password, booking pages in Slovak, Czech or Vietnamese, or if your business is outside the United States — the one country Boulevard's pages describe.

Common questions#

Is Boulevard free, or is there a trial?#
There is no free plan. The cheapest plan, Essentials, is $143 a month billed annually or $159 billed monthly, for a single location with up to five providers. Boulevard's site does not mention a trial; every button leads to a demo. Bookodile is free at one location with up to two active booking spots and 40 bookings a month, with every add-on included — SMS aside, which need a paid plan — and that is a plan, not a trial.
Can I move my customers from Boulevard to Bookodile?#
Boulevard exports a client list or an audience to CSV with name, mobile number and email. Bookodile does not yet import one; customers are created the first time they book, so the list rebuilds itself as regulars return, and your team can add anyone by hand. Export before you give notice: Boulevard's agreement makes your data available for no more than 30 days after a termination notice.
Does Bookodile take payments, deposits and no-show fees like Boulevard?#
No. Boulevard processes cards, holds a card for every online booking, takes deposits and charges late-cancellation and no-show fees. Bookodile does none of this: payment stays between you and your customer, however you handle it today, and the payment-tracking add-on records what arrived. A no-show is recorded on the customer, not charged.
What happens to my Boulevard agreement if I switch?#
That depends on your order form. Boulevard's services agreement sets a 12-month initial term where the order does not specify one, renews for 12 months at a time unless written notice of non-renewal reaches Boulevard at least 30 days before the term ends, and says fees for the whole term remain payable if you terminate during it. Check your own start date and renewal date before you plan the move.
Which languages can my customers book in?#
Boulevard does not publish which languages its booking overlay supports; third-party listings say English. Bookodile's booking page comes in 17 languages, Slovak, Czech, Vietnamese and Spanish among them: each location has a main language and can add up to seven more, which customers switch between on the page, separately from the language you read your dashboard in. Its wording in the 13 beyond English, Slovak, Czech and Vietnamese was written by AI and has not yet been read by a native speaker.
How does the pricing compare for a business with three people?#
On Boulevard, three professionals fit inside Essentials, which covers up to five at one location, at that plan's per-location price plus whatever texts, emails and add-ons you use. On Bookodile a booking spot is one appointment you can run at the same time as another, so three people each taking bookings at once are three spots, which is above the free tier; the figure for your country is on the pricing page. A spot is billed only in a month it took a booking, and someone who takes no bookings is not a spot.
