Barbers · Canberra ACT
Booking software for barbershops in Canberra
Canberra barbering has the most predictable rhythm in the country and it belongs to the working week. The Braddon shops fill at lunchtime and again from half four, Kingston and Manuka run the same shape, and a Tuesday here looks a lot like the Tuesday before it.
Predictable is good, but it makes the lunchtime hour unforgiving: a no-show at 12:30 cannot be refilled at 12:45 because everybody who wanted that slot is back at their desk.
So the useful features here are the ones that protect a narrow window - a reminder the day before, a client who can move their own booking rather than just not appearing, and a standing appointment for the regulars who come every four weeks.

Built for Canberra barbers
A lot of Canberra clients book once and then keep the same slot for years. A recurring booking holds it without anyone rebooking manually, and each instance still sends its own reminder, so the standing 12:30 Wednesday stays theirs and stays remembered.
The other local reality is that the trade moves with the parliamentary and school calendars rather than the weather. Blocking a week out is one action, and the booking page stops offering those days immediately rather than taking bookings you will have to unwind.
Frequently asked
How do I protect a lunchtime slot from no-shows?
A day-before SMS reminder from an Australian number, plus a link that lets the client move the booking themselves. A narrow lunchtime window cannot be refilled at short notice, so the goal is finding out the night before rather than at 12:30.
Can regulars keep the same slot every month?
Yes. A recurring booking holds the same time weekly, fortnightly or monthly for as long as you set, and each one sends its own reminder. Moving a single instance does not disturb the rest.
Can I block out a week easily?
Yes, in one action from the dashboard or the app, and you can block part of a day rather than all of it. The booking page stops offering those times straight away.
Do you charge per barber?
No. One flat monthly price covers the shop, with up to 5 barbers as providers on Professional and 20 on Business, each with their own hours and booking link.
What does it cost and is GST included?
Starter is $29 a month and Professional $59, both excluding GST, with a 14 day free trial and no card required. GST-registered businesses claim the GST back.
