Set Core for professionals
Your Chair, Your Rules. The Booking App Built for Independent Barbers.
You built your book on trust, consistency, and showing up. You shouldn't have to give up a share of every booking to use scheduling software. Set Core gives barbers a premium booking experience, tools that help reduce no-shows, and 0% commission — all powered by our fair activity billing model.
Protect Your Time with Deposits & Clear Policies
Your time is your inventory. Set Core lets you require upfront deposits and publish clear cancellation policies, while automated reminders help reduce no-shows.
Activity Billing: You Only Pay When You Work
Barbers shouldn't pay software fees when they take a week off. With Set's activity-based billing, you only pay your $9.99 subscription if you actually had qualifying booking activity that period. No bookings? No fee.
0% Commission. Keep What You Earn.
Other platforms take a cut of every cut. We don't. You keep 100% of your service price, paying only standard Stripe processing fees. Your clients, your money.
Frequently asked questions
Can I customize deposits for my services?
Yes. You can choose pay-in-person, full payment, or a deposit for each service and set the deposit amount when applicable.
How does activity billing work for barbers?
The $9.99 base fee applies only to billing periods with qualifying bookings. If you've paid before, bookings wait until your next monthly billing date, anchored to your latest successful payment in your business's local time. If you've never paid, your first confirmed booking sets your initial billing day; the first charge waits at least 24 hours after a notice from Support. No bookings in a period means no charge, and any referral discount carries to the next billable invoice.
Can I set a cancellation policy for my bookings?
Yes. Set Core lets you add a booking policy to your public profile so clients can review your expectations before they book.
