Why SyncWell

Your team gets the schedule.You keep the client list.

Other platforms take a cut of new clients, lock booking to their marketplace, or open your whole CRM to every stylist. SyncWell runs the floor: multi-staff splits, appointment messaging, payroll. All without milking your book of business.

  • Built for salon & beauty pros
  • Your clients. Your business.
  • Simple, secure and powerful.

The problem

Most booking platforms aren't built for how you work.

They're designed to own the client relationship, not help you run your business.

20%

New-client tax

Fresha charges 20%, Booksy Boost 30%, and Treatwell (UK) 35% on first marketplace visits.

30%

Staff can walk with the list

Most platforms give full CRM access to your staff. That means stylists can see and take your client data when they leave.

35%

Messaging nickel-and-dime

Mangomint Phone is $70/line and marketing starts at $30. Simple appointment messaging shouldn't come with extra fees.

Why SyncWell

Built for real salon and beauty businesses.

Everything you need to manage your team, clients and business, without the downsides.

Multi-staff split & payroll

When more than one person works a service, book it as a split so everyone on it gets it on their schedule. At payroll, apply those splits to the commissions, tips, and deductions you set.

Client messaging

Built-in SMS + WhatsApp for confirmations and reminders. Consent-aware, reliable, and included, not a marketing upsell.

Privacy CRM

Stylists get their schedule and earnings. You keep phones, emails and notes private. Role-based access keeps your client list safe.

Keep Acuity, Calendly or Square

Sync with the tools you already use or book natively in SyncWell. No forced migration. Treatwell doesn't sync, and Fresha unlisting kills your booking links.

No marketplace commission

We don't take a cut when someone books you. Your clients are yours. Always.

Questions owners actually ask

Do you take a cut when a new client books?

No. SyncWell is not a marketplace. You pay a subscription. New and returning clients stay yours.

Can my staff see client phone numbers and emails?

Only if you grant that permission. By default, stylists see the schedule, the service, and what they earned. Contact details and notes stay with the roles you choose.

Do I have to leave Acuity, Calendly, or Square?

No. Sync appointments from the tools you already use, or take bookings in SyncWell. You are not locked to a marketplace listing to keep your bookable hours.

Is messaging a paid add-on?

Appointment SMS and WhatsApp are part of running the floor, not a separate marketing product. We do not sell blast credits or per-line phone seats the way Mangomint Phone and Marketing do.

How do multi-staff splits work?

When more than one person works a service, book it as a split so everyone on it gets the appointment on their schedule. At payroll, apply those splits to the cuts you set.

How is this different from Fresha, Booksy, or Treatwell?

Those platforms grow you through their marketplace, then take a commission on first visits and often control the booking link. SyncWell is the operations layer: splits, messaging, payroll, and a CRM that does not hand the list to every chair.

Run the floor. Keep the book.
