Build a like-for-like quote
For barbers, beauty professionals and appointment-based teams seeking booking visibility and day-to-day business tools, a useful budget follows the work you actually perform. Ask each provider to price the same staff count, payment channel and required customer tasks. Include the integrations needed for the complete setup, and keep one-time migration work separate from recurring monthly charges.
- Will optional Boost be enabled, and how will new-customer acquisition be measured?
- Does each barber need a paid team user?
- Which client photos need public portfolio access, staff-only notes or customer sharing?
Put the KadePay side in the same budget
Choose the applicable KadePay plan and read the complete pricing table. Distinguish terminal and manually entered card rates, appointment usage, session or ticket charges and optional payment methods. Recurring billing and multiple users depend on the plan. Do not compare a card-present rate on one side with an online or manual-entry rate on the other.
If Booksy connects to a separate processor, include that processor in its budget. If KadePay uses a processor for your payment setup, include the applicable full payment charges and avoid counting the same charge twice. A software subscription and a transaction processing charge describe different costs.
