"> Barbered — FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Barbered?

A scheduling app that shows you who's actually coming today — not just a list of names. Built for barbers. The core is a confirmation dashboard: open the app, see who's confirmed, who hasn't responded, and who has a history of no-shows.

How much does it cost?

$35/mo. Plus $0.03 per text message. Includes a 14-day free trial with all features — no credit card required.

How does the free trial work?

14 days. All features. No limitations, no feature gating. After 14 days, enter payment. During the trial you're already building your client list and sending reminders.

Do my clients need to download an app?

No. Clients book through a web link you share (Instagram bio, Google listing, texts). They confirm appointments by replying "1" to a text. No app download required.

How do reminders work?

You pick a reminder profile: Simple (morning text), Standard (evening before + morning of), or Custom (build your own rules). Reminders respect textable hours — yours and your clients'.

How does the waitlist work?

Clients join your waitlist for preferred times. When a slot opens, the next person gets an auto-offer with a timed claim window. If they don't claim, it cascades to the next person.

Can I use my existing Square reader?

Yes. At checkout, Barbered hands off to your Square app with the amount pre-filled. Same tip screen, same receipt. You land back in Barbered after payment.

Can clients reschedule themselves?

Yes. The confirmation text includes a link. Clients can reschedule or cancel through a mobile web page showing your real availability. No phone call needed.

What about recurring clients?

One-tap recurring bookings: "Every 3 weeks, same time." Auto-generates appointments for 6-12 months. Your regulars never have to rebook.

How do I cancel?

Cancel any time from Settings. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Your data can be exported.
