BookingKoala

BookingKoala is an online booking platform built for service businesses — especially home and field services like cleaning, pet sitting, tutoring, and personal training — that want customers to book one-time or recurring jobs through a ready-made booking website and app. Alongside scheduling it bundles lead generation, billing, marketing, and operational dashboards, so it functions as a near-complete storefront and back office.

The booking engine lets you design customizable forms for one-off or recurring services, with separate admin, provider, and customer dashboards, smart scheduling and job assignment across a team, a referral and coupon system, ratings, and themes to brand the experience. Automated emails, SMS notifications, and reminders keep customers informed, and payments are accepted by card, check transfer, or cash on delivery. An API plus Zapier connect it to Slack, Mailchimp, QuickBooks, Square, Google Calendar, and more.

Pricing is tiered with a free trial: a Startup plan begins around $27 per month for a single user, with Business and Enterprise tiers scaling by users and features. BookingKoala is web-based with mobile apps. It fits small and mid-size service companies that want booking, dispatch, and a customer-facing site in one system rather than a plain scheduling link.
