Manual everything
Invoicing, reconciliation, and reporting must be done manually in separate systems.
Minimum monthly fees

Rate not transparent
Your rate is individually calculated. You do not know your rate until you apply.
When payments live inside your booking system, every dollar tells a story. Standalone terminals create data silos.
Every transaction automatically links to the appointment, the staff member who delivered the service, and the client and pet it was for. No manual tagging.
Professional PDF invoices created the moment a payment is recorded. Your logo, your ABN, itemised GST. Sent to the client automatically.
Stripe connects directly to Xero. Every transaction appears pre-labelled and reconciliation-ready. Zero manual data entry for your accountant.
See revenue broken down by service type, by staff member, by day of the week, and by individual client. Average spend, rebooking rates, and trends at a glance.
Integrated payments that connect every transaction to your bookings, staff, and clients. No data silos, no manual reconciliation.
