Looking for a Fresha alternative?
Fresha is the biggest booking platform in beauty — free to start, then it earns from card processing and from the new clients its marketplace sends you. Omni Shop Guardian is a flat monthly price with no cut of your ticket: your own booking page, your own phone number, your own Square account, and a daily read on what you actually kept.

Where Fresha is the better pick
If you run a multi-room spa with inventory, packages and a big front-desk team — or you're outside the US — Fresha covers more ground and we won't pretend otherwise. If you're behind the chair and want your money and your client list to stay yours, that's what we built.
