A whole afternoon lost to a no-show
A deposit, a fixed amount or a percentage, is paid into your own account when the session is booked, and the session is confirmed only once it arrives.
For studios
Session booking with deposits for studios
In short
Tattoo, photo and training studios: clients book a session on your website or a booking page hosted here, and a deposit holds it, with time to clean up after.

Every part in every plan, USD 9.00 a week or USD 29.00 a month. Updated 16 October 2026.
Long sessions, and the time around them
No time between clients
Time before and after a service is taken out of the diary with it, so the next client is never booked into your clean-up.
One artist takes longer than another
Each person can have their own length and price for a service, and the free times follow whoever is doing it.
An example setup
One artist, four kinds of session
Sessions are one client at a time. Group classes with several places are not something bookings do.

Questions
What studios ask
Each answer starts with the answer.
Can I take a fixed deposit instead of a percentage?
Yes. The deposit is a percentage or a fixed amount, set once for the studio, asked for on the services you choose, and never more than the price.
Can I leave time between sessions?
Yes. Each service can have time before and after it, and nothing can be booked into that time.
What happens to the deposit if a client cancels?
It stays with you until you decide. Nothing refunds on its own. Keep it, or refund part or all of it from the payments screen, with a reason.
Can clients book without going to my website?
Yes. Your booking page has an address of its own, for a social profile, a business listing or a message, and the deposit is asked for there as it is anywhere else.
Can I run group classes?
No. A booking is one client in one slot. A class with several places is not supported, so this page does not promise it.
