In their own words
Velixa
Velixa combines online bookings, a business diary, payments, and a branded website for salons and service businesses. Clients book through a shareable link, choose an eligible service and team member, and manage permitted changes in their account. Merchants can secure bookings with a Stripe card without charging immediately, then charge the saved card or record cash on the appointment day. Online card payments carry a 3% fee with a minimum of £0.50 per payment; cash has no card-processing fee. The hosted website displays services, prices, appointment durations, a gallery, and online booking. Custom-domain support is included, while domain purchase and renewal are separate. A booking widget can be embedded where the site platform and plan support its code. Velixa lists calendar connections for Google Calendar, Outlook, Microsoft 365, and iCloud, and includes merchant apps for iOS and Android. Memberships, gift cards, loyalty programmes, prepaid packages, reviews, and a waitlist are included. Plans cost £15 a month or £12 a year, each with a seven-day trial and required card.
