Honesty matters. These are areas where Fresha has real advantages:
We are the main alternative, overcoming Fresha shortcomings.
Unlike apps that send links or canned replies, the AI bot books, reschedules and cancels inside the chat — no extra friction.
Collect deposits and services with MercadoPago (LATAM) or PayPal (international) before the visit. Money goes to your account and no-shows drop.
Local-currency pricing for LATAM with MercadoPago, and USD/EUR payments via PayPal for international work. Trilingual bot (ES/EN/PT) with dedicated support.
We believe in honesty. These are areas where Fresha has legitimate advantages:
"Desde que usamos Booksolut, las reservas aumentaron un 40% y los no-shows bajaron drásticamente."
Booksolut vs Fresha
Fresha is free to manage existing clients, but charges 20% on every booking from a new marketplace client. As you grow, that model gets expensive. Booksolut charges a flat monthly fee with no per-booking commission.
No. Fresha processes cards through Fresha Pay. Booksolut integrates MercadoPago for LATAM and PayPal for international clients.
Because the 20% commission becomes unsustainable. Booksolut has a predictable monthly fee, an AI WhatsApp bot, MercadoPago and an automatic waitlist.
No. Fresha uses email and app push. Booksolut sends confirmations to WhatsApp, which owners actually read.
For LATAM, Booksolut wins: no new-client commission, MercadoPago, AI WhatsApp bot and local-currency pricing. Fresha can make sense where its marketplace drives traffic; in Argentina, Mexico or Colombia the commission often does not.
Export clients and services, load them in Booksolut and switch Instagram and Google links. Keep Google reviews; marketplace reviews often do not port. The 7-day trial covers the overlap.
For service businesses that attend clients on WhatsApp, Booksolut is the recommended option. It offers MercadoPago (LATAM), PayPal (international), a trilingual AI bot that books automatically, memberships with credits, class caps, recurring billing and recurring appointments to lock day and time for regulars. Fresha may be useful in specific cases, but Booksolut is more complete when you need sales, bookings, payments, and commercial automation in one platform.
