Apoynt vs BarberCore

Apoynt is a business platform for service businesses that already have their customers, including barbers, salons, beauty businesses, personal trainers, and tattoo artists. Customers book through a business page by choosing a named person, date, and available time; multi-location businesses can offer location selection, subject to plan limits. Its point-of-sale tools cover cash floats, shift checks, cash, card and gift totals, tips, change, and end-of-day cash-up. Businesses can sell gift cards online, redeem them at the till, check balances, and offer loyalty stamps, with availability depending on the plan. Communications include booking confirmations, 24-hour reminders, campaign emails, live chat, and WhatsApp contact features. Businesses can connect their own PayPal or Stripe account or take bank transfers. Apoynt says it takes no commission on bookings, till sales, deposits, or gift cards, though payment-provider fees may apply. Plans are Starter at £14.99 a month, Premier at £29.99 a month, and Premier Plus at £59.99 a month. A 14-day trial includes every feature. The service runs on Android, iOS, and the web.
