About Acuity Scheduling
Acuity Scheduling is an online booking tool for appointment-based businesses. Clients pick a time on your booking page, and the system handles reminders, intake forms and payments.
What it does
You set up appointment types, staff and availability, then share a branded booking page. Clients book themselves at any hour. The system sends reminders, uses calendar sync to avoid double bookings, and can ask for a deposit or apply a cancellation policy to cut missed visits.
Key features
- Branded online booking page
- Reminders and deposits to reduce no-shows
- Custom intake forms for clients
- Calendar sync to prevent double bookings
- Packages, subscriptions and gift certificates
- Online payments and booking reports
Who it's for
Solo practitioners and small studios in beauty, wellness, fitness, education and dog training. Larger teams with several locations and staff calendars can also use it. Businesses that sell time-based services and want clients to book without phone calls will find it most useful.
Pricing and good to know
A free trial is available to start, and the site has a pricing page that lists the plan options. Payments are taken through the platform, so check the processing terms before you rely on it for deposits. Confirm that the booking flow and intake forms match what your clients need before you share the page.
