Treatwell alternative without commission — your brand, your cash flow

Treatwell is solid for very low booking volume and marketplace traffic. But once you do 10+ bookings per week, 10–20% commission eats your profit — and your customer data belongs to Treatwell, not you.

EazyBooking is flat fee instead of commission (from €59/month), your own domain from day one, full customer data ownership, Stripe Connect for direct cash flow.

In short: when does what fit?

Treatwell is better when …

  • You're still under 10 bookings/week (commission <€60/month = cheaper than any flat fee)
  • You need first-time-customer traffic from the marketplace (500k+ daily searches)
  • You don't want to bring your own marketing budget or skills

EazyBooking is better when …

  • You have a growing repeat-customer base (10+ bookings/week = flat fee is cheaper)
  • You want to build your own brand (your domain, your logo, your marketing)
  • You want to keep customer data and email access for re-engagement
  • You want the cash-flow advantage of direct payment via Stripe (instead of 1–2× weekly payouts)

The best alternatives in 2026

The best Treatwell alternatives at a glance

Looking for an alternative to Treatwell? Here are the most honest options for 2026 — briefly explained, with a clear note on who each one fits. Our recommendation is at the top, followed by fair options you can compare for yourself.

  1. EazyBooking

    Our recommendationNo marketplace cut

    Your own booking page on your domain instead of the Treatwell marketplace: 0% commission on every booking, a fixed price (€59/month including 5 staff members). Your customers belong to you, not to the platform. Every appointment lands as a native invite in your Apple or Google Calendar, servers in Germany, personal setup by the founder. The strongest choice once you're building on regulars rather than walk-in traffic.

  2. Treatwell

    Marketplace reach

    A large beauty marketplace with its own consumer app — potentially brings in new walk-in customers, but in return charges around 35% commission on every first booking made through the platform (repeat bookings are commission-free). Makes sense if new-customer reach matters more to you than margin and your own brand. It's now part of Fresha.

  3. Fresha

    Free + marketplace

    Free salon software with its own marketplace, funded through roughly 20% commission on new-customer bookings plus card payment fees. Attractive for a commission-based start with no fixed costs — but you pay per new customer and you're part of someone else's marketplace rather than your own domain.

  4. Planity

    Salon with POS

    Established salon software (calendar from €69, with POS/fiscal module €99) including its own marketplace. A good choice for larger salons that want an all-in-one solution with an integrated point of sale — pricier in return, less lean, and likewise built around marketplace logic.

  5. Shore

    Marketing & CRM

    Broad SaaS for appointments, customer management and marketing/newsletters (all-in-one from roughly €130/month, plus fiscal module and payment fees). Strong if you need a lot of CRM and marketing functionality — commission-free, but noticeably pricier and with no native Apple Calendar invite.

  6. studiolution

    Cheap all-in-one

    Lean German salon software with appointments, POS and card payments at a comparatively low flat price. A good commission-free entry point for classic salons that need a point of sale — focused on POS and salon management, with no native calendar invite into your Apple/Google account.

What sets EazyBooking apart

Four concrete differences that matter

Flat fee wins from 10 bookings/week

At 100 bookings × €60/month you pay €600–1,200 commission to Treatwell. At EazyBooking €59. The math flips at around 10 bookings/week in favor of the flat fee — and the bigger you get, the clearer the advantage.

Customer data belongs to you

On Treatwell you're in marketplace lock-in: customer profiles and booking history live with Treatwell. On EazyBooking you get full GDPR export, direct email access for re-engagement, repeat-customer recall via smart reminders.

Cash flow direct, not 1–2× per week

Treatwell collects customer payments and pays you out 1–2× weekly. With EazyBooking the money lands via Stripe Connect directly from the customer in your Stripe account — no waiting period, no platform cash-flow risk.

Your brand, your domain from day one

Treatwell booking pages show Treatwell branding prominently. With EazyBooking everything runs on book.your-salon.com with your logo, your colors, your brand story — customers see you, not us.

Frequently asked questions

Switching from Treatwell — what you need to know

Does switching from Treatwell to EazyBooking pay off financially?

Yes, once you're doing more than ~10 bookings per week. At 50 bookings/month × €60 that's ~€300–600 commission to Treatwell. EazyBooking flat fee €59. Difference: €241–541/month back in your pocket. We recommend a parallel testing setup for 30 days, then decide.

Will I lose Treatwell customers if I switch?

Treatwell keeps their profiles, but you keep your email list and all contact data you captured yourself. With an announcement email campaign ("We're switching, here's our new booking page") you typically win back 70–85% of your regulars directly.

Can I run Treatwell + EazyBooking in parallel?

Yes, that's actually the recommended transition strategy. Treatwell keeps the marketplace traffic for new customers, EazyBooking runs as your main booking page for regulars. After 2–3 months you'll see where conversion is better and decide per channel.

What about Treatwell's marketplace visibility?

The Treatwell marketplace pulls 500k+ daily searches — that's objectively strong. If you're just starting out and don't have your own marketing engine, the marketplace can be worth it. As your repeat-customer share grows, the balance shifts. We recommend investing 30–50% of marketing budget in your own brand once regulars are >50% of revenue.

How fast is the switch?

EazyBooking setup in under 30 min: add services, opening hours, staff, connect your own domain. Data takeover: request a Treatwell GDPR export (legally required), get the CSV, import into EazyBooking. Full migration realistic in 1–2 business days.

€59/month net. 5 staff included. No per-booking commission. No setup fees. No hidden costs. Annual billing gets 17% off (= €590/year, 2 months free). Compared to €600–1,200/month Treatwell commission at moderate volume, this is ROI-positive from month one.
