Mintbook review
A focused booking system with recurring appointments and premium monthly pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Mintbook is a hosted booking system for UK barbershops, covering solo barbers, teams and multi-chair shops. Clients can use a branded public booking page to choose a service, select a barber or take the first available slot, save a card and schedule recurring appointments. Shop owners get a dashboard with a diary, team calendar, analytics, automatic reminders and client data tools. The product is available on web, iOS and Android, with integrated payment processing and no booking commission.
Pricing is positioned for businesses that can justify a fixed monthly software cost. Solo costs £149 per month and includes a branded booking site, owner dashboard, automatic reminders, card-on-file payments, no-show protection, hosting, support and updates. Team costs £249 per month and adds staff calendars, team booking, packages, memberships, reviews, rebooking and recurring slots. Growth costs £349 per month and adds SEO, AEO and GEO work, quarterly optimisation and priority support. Prices include VAT and billing is monthly. There is no free plan; the site describes a free branded demo.
Mintbook’s strongest fit is appointment-led operation rather than a broad retail or business-management suite. Recurring appointments, automatic email and SMS reminders, card-on-file no-show fees, client import, export and erasure tools, and per-barber scheduling address practical booking workflows. The main trade-off is cost: the entry plan is high for a product with a focused, verified feature set, and Solo supports one staff account. Choose Mintbook if branded booking, recurring clients and no-show controls matter enough to support the monthly spend. Smaller shops seeking a lower-cost or broader tool should compare alternatives before committing.
