Source: Fresha pricing page (checked Nov 3, 2026). US dollars. Fresha says rates exclude local sales taxes.
| Independent | Team | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $19.95/mo | $14.95/mo per bookable team member |
| Team members | 1 | Unlimited |
| Calendar | Single calendar column | Multiple calendar columns |

Fresha’s FAQ says there’s no minimum commitment or long-term contract, you can cancel any time, and businesses with teams get a 7-day free trial with no credit card required. Enterprise is custom-priced for businesses with more than 20 team members.
The pricing page’s comparison table lists these features: calendar and appointment scheduling, waitlists, point of sale, client management, consultation forms, client ratings and reviews, retail and inventory, an online product store, quotes and invoices, reporting, marketing tools, deals and promotions, gift cards, packages, memberships, a business mobile app, group bookings, processing and finishing times, resources, and patch tests. The text version of the page doesn’t show which column each checkmark falls in, so confirm the feature you need on Fresha’s page before you sign up.
The Team plan adds team-management tools that the Independent column leaves blank: login permissions, sales commissions, wages, pay runs, timesheets with clock in and out, and service pricing and duration per team member. It also lists “multi merchant,” which routes payments directly from clients to independents.
What a salon pays for the subscription
| Bookable team members | Monthly subscription |

| 2 | $29.90 |
| 3 | $44.85 |
| 5 | $74.75 |
| 10 | $149.50 |
| 20 | $299.00 |
Those are our multiplications of Fresha’s published per-member price. Only team members who are bookable count. Fresha doesn’t say whether front-desk staff without a calendar are billed.
Bookings and the marketplace
- Your own channels: direct booking links, Facebook bookings, and Instagram bookings are free. Fresha says you aren’t charged for new clients who find you through your own website, Instagram profile, or Facebook profile.
- Fresha marketplace, new clients: a 20% one-time commission, with a minimum fee of $6 per client. The page doesn’t say which amount the 20% applies to, so check Fresha’s terms before you turn marketplace booking on.
- Fresha marketplace, returning clients: free. Fresha says “no fee ever applies” to them.
- Fresha says it doesn’t charge a booking fee per appointment.
Card processing
| Payment type | Rate |
|---|---|
| In person | 2.29% + $0.20 per transaction, plus $0.10 per Tap to Pay authorization |
| Online | 2.79% + $0.20 per transaction |
| Manual card entry | 3.30% + $0.20 per transaction |
| Buy Now Pay Later (Klarna) | 5.99% + $0.30 per transaction |
| Terminal devices | From $139 per device (the Team column shows “Free,” subject to processing volumes) |
On a $90 service paid in person, the fee is about $2.26 ($90 × 2.29% + $0.20). Paid online, it’s about $2.71. Fresha’s FAQ says processing is optional: you can run bookings, calendars, and other features without taking payments through Fresha. The page also lists upfront payments and no-show and cancellation fees as features.
Texts and emails
- Automated email and mobile app notifications are free and unlimited.
- Automated text and WhatsApp notifications: 100 free a month (per team member on Team), then $0.02 per text or $0.04 to $0.11 per WhatsApp message.
- Marketing emails: 50 free a month (per team member on Team), then $0.02 per email.
- Marketing texts: $0.08 per text.
A solo stylist sending 400 reminder texts in a month pays for 300 of them: about $6.00 at $0.02 each.

Support and moving over

What to budget
For a solo stylist on Independent who takes most payments in person: $19.95 a month plus about 2.29% + $0.20 on card sales, with free booking links. The marketplace is where costs can jump, because each new client it sends carries a 20% one-time commission.
