ArtizanSquare is business-management software for businesses that sell time - salons, barbershops, spas, nail and beauty studios, restaurants, clinics, hotels and tailors. Bookings and walk-ins share one calendar, deposits protect the slots that get no-showed, memberships make next month predictable, and your Instagram and WhatsApp messages answer themselves while you work.
Free forever tier. Verification is free on every plan. No card needed to look around.
Most venues are not short of customers. They are short of the hour a day it takes to chase, confirm, record and follow up on the ones they already have.
4
apps for one booking
A DM on Instagram, a confirmation on WhatsApp, a note in a book, and a transfer you check on your bank app.
0
record of the walk-in
The customer who came in without booking is the one you never contact again, because nothing wrote them down.
1
empty chair, unpaid
A no-show with nothing held against it costs the slot, the product and the staff hour you had already committed.
Overview carries the calendar in month, week and day view with the booking list beside it. Bookings taken on your public page, requests you accepted, and walk-ins your front desk checked in all land on the same diary, so nobody is double-booked because one of them lived in a notebook.
The visit board shows who is checked in and not yet checked out, what they are having, and what it comes to. Checking a customer out closes the visit, credits your wallet with the takings, and sends that customer their review request - one action instead of three.
Set a deposit on any service and the form shows the exact naira figure your customer will be charged, booking fee included, before you save it. If they never turn up, marking them absent settles the deposit in front of you: what they paid, what you keep, what we take. We earn our 20% share only when a deposit is actually forfeited.
Build membership tiers with their own price and description, then watch subscribers against them. A member's entitlement is deducted server-side when they check in, so the front desk never has to remember who has sessions left. Retiring a tier makes you reassign its active subscribers first - nobody is quietly dropped.
Invite staff by their ArtizanSquare username and switch on the areas they should see: analytics, staff, services, memberships, subscription, the visit log. Your receptionist can run the door without seeing revenue. Payouts and branches stay owner-only whatever else you grant.
Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp messages arrive in one inbox. The assistant answers from a business brief you can read and edit line by line - every claim traceable to the source it was drawn from - and it hands the conversation to you at boundaries you set. What it can give away from your diary is shown before you switch it on.
Named exactly as you will find them in the workspace, so you know what you are getting before you sign up.
The diary in month, week and day view with the booking list beside it, plus a setup checklist that tells you what is still missing from your venue.
Check customers in with the services they are having, see who is in the venue, then check them out to close the visit and take payment.
Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp DMs and post comments in one inbox, with auto-reply, an AI assistant and a qualified leads view beside them.
Trigger, conditions, action. The after-visit review request is one you can rewrite yourself; it is authored once and delivered as both email and WhatsApp.
Your service menu with prices and durations, and a deposit policy per service that shows the exact amount the customer is charged before you save.
Recurring tiers, active subscriber lists, and entitlements deducted at check-in rather than tracked on paper.
Invite the team, set who can open which part of the workspace, and handle join requests from one screen.
Visits, revenue from completed visits, unique customers, tracked bookings and your payment mix over any date range you pick.
Transaction records, your transfer details and payment link, pay-at-venue settings, and a dispute route when a transaction is wrong.
Run a venue network: each branch keeps its own address and public page while the whole network stays visible from one workspace.
The portfolio customers actually browse before booking, kept on the same profile as your prices and hours.
Build your venue from Google Business, Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp in about a minute, then publish corrections back to Google and WhatsApp.
Every venue gets a bookable page with services, prices, gallery and reviews, reachable from search and from your own social bios.
Get verified so customers can see it. Verification is free on every plan, including the free one - it is not something we sell.
Not a promise about scale - the four specific mechanisms, and what each one is doing while you work.
Your venue gets a public page with services, prices, gallery and reviews that customers can book from directly. Connected Profile builds it from your Google Business Profile, Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp in about a minute, and publishes your corrected hours and details back to Google - so the listing people find is the one that is actually right.
Deposits on the services that hurt to lose. A no-show settlement that states every figure before it moves money. A visit board that records the walk-in who would otherwise leave no trace. Payout records and a dispute route, so a transaction you disagree with has somewhere to go.
Membership tiers give you money that arrives whether or not this week was busy, with entitlements deducted at check-in so the front desk is never doing mental arithmetic. Every checkout sends a review request automatically, and reviews are what decide the next customer's booking.
One inbox for Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, with an assistant that replies from your own brief and can book the slot. Imported Instagram and Facebook messages are deleted after fourteen days, but what was worked out from them - what the customer wants, their budget, their timing - is kept as a lead, and it keeps what the customer actually said separate from what was inferred.
If you have a diary, a service menu, staff on a rota and customers who need a reason to come back, this is the shape of business it was designed around.
Five steps. Most owners are taking real bookings the same afternoon.
Create your venue on ArtizanSquare. If you already have a Google Business Profile, import it and your hours, address, phone, categories and photos come with it.
Add services with prices and durations, and set a deposit on the ones that hurt when somebody does not show up.
Add your transfer details, decide whether you accept payment at the venue, and your public page can start taking real bookings.
Invite staff by username and switch on only the areas each of them needs. The front desk can run the door without seeing your revenue.
Turn on the after-visit review request and the DM auto-reply, so the work that happens after a customer leaves stops depending on you remembering.
Written out rather than only linked to, because a price nobody can find reads as a price somebody is hiding.
₦0
free forever tier
Run a venue, take bookings and get verified without paying anything.
14
days of trial on paid plans

20%
of a forfeited deposit
Our share when a customer no-shows and their deposit is forfeited - the one moment the deposit earned its keep. Never taken from a completed visit.
When a customer pays a booking deposit through ArtizanSquare we keep a small share and send you the rest, and that percentage drops as you move up a plan. Verification is free on every plan, including Free - keeping customers safe from bad actors is our job, not something you should have to buy. See the full pricing table.
Worth knowing before you sign up rather than after.
ArtizanSquare manages time, services and customers. If you need to track product units, cost of goods and reorder levels, that lives outside the dashboard.
Revenue figures come from completed visits and tracked bookings. Cash a customer handed over that nobody checked out does not appear, because nothing told the system it happened.
Meta provides no API for an app to change a Page's hours or an Instagram bio. Those two are read-only sources. Google Business and WhatsApp are the platforms we can publish back to.
Instagram and Facebook conversations are not kept as a permanent archive. What the assistant worked out from them is kept as a lead, but the message thread itself is not a filing cabinet.
It answers from the brief you wrote. Where a question falls outside it, the conversation comes to you - which is the point, but it does mean somebody still has to be reachable.
Straight answers about bookings, deposits, staff, branches and what it costs.
ArtizanSquare for business owners is a business-management dashboard for appointment and walk-in businesses - salons, barbershops, spas, nail and beauty studios, restaurants, clinics, hotels and tailors. It handles bookings and walk-in visits on one calendar, takes deposits, runs memberships, manages staff permissions across branches, answers Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp messages, and reports revenue, visits and payment mix. Your venue also gets a public page customers can book from.
ArtizanSquare helps a business grow in four ways it can point at. It puts you where customers are already searching, through a public bookable page and a Google Business Profile you can keep current from one place. It stops revenue leaking, through deposits on the services that get no-showed. It makes income repeat, through membership tiers with entitlements tracked automatically. And it does the follow-up work - review requests after every visit, replies to DMs at 11pm - that owners otherwise never get round to.
Yes. Walk-ins are first-class on ArtizanSquare, not an afterthought. Your front desk checks a customer in with the services they are having, the visit board shows everyone currently in the venue, and checking them out closes the visit, records the takings and sends their review request. Walk-in visits and online bookings sit on the same calendar, so the diary is never split between an app and a paper book.
Yes. You can set a deposit on any individual service, as a percentage or a fixed amount, and the service form shows the exact naira figure your customer will be charged - booking fee included - before you save it. If the customer does not turn up, marking them absent settles the deposit and states every amount first: what they paid, what your business keeps, and the 20% share we take, which we only earn when a deposit is actually forfeited.
Yes. Staff permissions on ArtizanSquare are set per area rather than as one admin switch. You invite someone by their ArtizanSquare username and enable only what they need - the visit log, services, memberships, staff, analytics or subscription. A receptionist can run check-ins all day with analytics switched off. Payouts and the branch network are owner-only regardless of what else you grant.
Yes. ArtizanSquare supports a venue network, where each branch keeps its own address and its own public business page while remaining part of one network you manage from a single workspace. Branches are owner-only, so staff at one location do not get the keys to the rest of the network.
Yes. Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp messages and post comments arrive in one ArtizanSquare inbox, and an AI assistant can answer them from a business brief you write and edit yourself. Before you switch it on, the dashboard shows you the real appointment slots it would give away, how those customers would pay, and the exact list of situations where it stops and hands the conversation back to you.
ArtizanSquare has a free forever tier, and paid plans start with a 14-day trial. The trial takes a one-off ₦100 registration fee and saves your card so the plan continues without interruption; cancel before the trial ends and nothing further is charged. When a customer pays a booking deposit through us we keep a small share and send you the rest, and that percentage falls as you move up a plan. Verification is free on every plan, including Free.
No. You can start with an empty dashboard and let it fill as customers come through the door, because every walk-in you check in creates the customer record for you. Importing your Google Business Profile brings your hours, services, categories and photos across in under a minute, so the venue itself is set up without retyping anything.
ArtizanSquare is built for businesses that sell time and service rather than shipped goods: hair salons, barbershops, spas and med spas, nail and beauty studios, waxing studios, restaurants, hotels, dental and medical clinics, tailors and fashion studios. What they share is a diary, a service menu, staff on a rota, and customers who need a reason to come back.
Set your venue up, put your services on it, and let the diary, the deposits and the follow-ups run themselves. The free tier does not expire.
