Booking & scheduling

Tattoo studio booking and consultation software

Take consultation requests with the detail you actually need, hold deposits before you block out a full day, and give every artist their own schedule.

Built around how tattoo studios actually work

Consultations need context before you quote

Placement, size, and reference images decide the session length. Custom booking fields collect all of it up front instead of over ten DMs.

A no-show on a full-day session is brutal

Booking approval mode lets you confirm before committing the day, and Stripe deposits mean serious clients only.

Every artist books differently

Artists have their own styles, rates, and days. Per-artist schedules and services keep the studio coherent.

Custom intake fields for placement, size, and references

Frequently asked questions

Can I take a deposit before confirming a tattoo booking?

Yes. Connect your own Stripe account and take a deposit at booking, and use approval mode so a request only becomes a confirmed appointment once you accept it.

Can I ask clients for reference images and placement?

Yes. Custom booking form fields let you collect placement, size, budget, and any other details before the consultation.
