Comparison
Looking for a Square Appointments alternative?
Square Appointments is booking woven into the Square ecosystem: its point of sale, card readers, and payment processing. If you already run your money through Square, the integration is genuinely convenient.
If you don’t — if you take cash, transfers, or your own card reader — the ecosystem becomes overhead, and staff pricing adds up. Reservy handles the scheduling half beautifully and leaves payments on whatever rails you already use, for a flat 10 USD a month.

When Reservy is the better fit
- You don’t use (or want) Square’s point of sale and card readers.
- You get paid in cash, transfers, or a card machine you already own.
- You want the same flat software cost regardless of how many staff you add.
- You want the simplest possible day view: schedule, services, clients, earnings.
- You’re outside the countries where Square operates.
When Square Appointments may fit better
- You already run sales through Square and want bookings and payments unified.
- You want cards charged at booking or no-show protection fees collected automatically.
- You need retail features (inventory, receipts) beside your calendar.
We’d rather you pick the right tool than the loudest pitch — features and pricing above reflect Square Appointments’s publicly listed plans and may change; check their site for current details.

Frequently asked questions
How does Reservy track money without payment processing?
You mark each appointment paid as it happens — one tap — and the earnings view totals your day, week, and month. How the money moved (cash, transfer, your reader) is up to you; Reservy keeps the record.
What does Square Appointments cost vs Reservy?
Square Appointments has a free tier for solo users, with paid plans as staff grows, plus processing fees on payments (details on their site). Reservy is a flat 10 USD a month at any team size, with unlimited services, no commission and no processing fees, after a 3-day free trial with no card — and you keep whatever payment arrangement you already have.
Can I use Reservy and still take card payments?
Of course — with whatever you use today: your bank’s reader, a payment link, cash. Reservy doesn’t sit in your money path at all; it just keeps the schedule and the totals.
