Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Apoynt is a paid booking and business-management platform for barbershops, salons, beauty businesses, personal trainers and tattoo artists. It combines online booking by staff member, service and available time with POS, deposits, gift cards, memberships, loyalty cards, inventory, commission and tips tracking, reminders, campaigns and customer messaging. Its multi-location management and business-branded installable phone app make it a fit for shops operating across locations, while web, iOS and Android access supports staff and customer use across devices.
Pricing is structured across Starter, Premier and Premier Plus, with monthly and annual billing. Starter costs £14.99 per month or £99.99 per year and lists bookings, POS, Call & WhatsApp and review request emails. Premier costs £29.99 per month or £199.99 per year, adding memberships, email campaigns, live chat and reports. Premier Plus costs £59.99 per month or £499.99 per year, with gift cards listed alongside bookings, POS, memberships, email campaigns and live chat. A 14-day trial includes every feature, and there is no free plan.
For platform fit, Apoynt connects with PayPal, Stripe, bank transfer and WhatsApp. The published feature set also covers payment deposits, gift-card redemption and balance lookup, stock management, cash floats, shift checks and end-of-day cash-up. Shops that need one system for booking, front-desk payments, customer retention and location-specific teams should find the breadth relevant. Smaller shops seeking a free starting option may prefer a product with a free plan, while teams needing features beyond the listed payment and messaging connections should assess ecosystem fit carefully.
