What busy salons run into
No-show rates in salons without automated reminders average around 20 percent. With automated SMS and email reminders, most salons bring that below 5 percent within the first month. On a busy week with 30 appointments, that's worth several hundred dollars.
40% of salon bookings now happen outside business hours. If your only channel is the phone or Instagram DMs at midnight, you lose almost half. With Avana, clients book directly on your own page in under a minute — even at 11pm on a Sunday in Brooklyn.
At a $55 average ticket and 25 appointments a day, a 20% no-show rate is up to $275 lost daily. Automatic SMS and email reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before each appointment drop that below 4% — typically $800-1,200 in recovered revenue every month.
Booksy and Vagaro both charge per-staff. GlossGenius starts at $24/mo per person. Fresha looks free until the 20% marketplace commission and 2.29% + $0.30 card fee hit. Avana's Pro plan covers up to 3 hairstylists at $45/mo, with each extra at +$5/month — no marketplace commission, no card-processing surcharge.
“I moved off Booksy three months ago and my bill dropped from $110 to $45. Same hairstylists, same volume. The 'free' marketplace tier was quietly costing me real money.”

Pricing
Some salon platforms take a 20% marketplace commission on every new client they send you, or charge a per-staff fee on top of the subscription. Avana doesn't. 0% commission on bookings, up to 3 stylists included on Pro, and 100% of your service revenue stays with the salon. A small booking fee applies when clients book online — the same way any ticketing or reservation platform works. Card payments run at Stripe's standard rate of 2.9% + $0.30 — Avana adds nothing on top. Plans from $15 per month.
