In case you missed anything.
Is Vev’s appointment scheduler for barbers free to use?
Yes, the standard version of Vev is free to use. The reason? We want to enable every barber to start their own barber shop, leveling the playing field between barbers.
As your barber shop grows, you should unlock Vev+. It’s a no-brainer for business owners that wanna keep their admin work to a minimum. Vev+ generates automatic tax reports, gives you access to advanced customer data, and overall ups the way your online page looks like
No hard feelings if you are not ready to pay; the standard version of Vev is always at your disposal for free.
Can anyone start a barber shop with Vev?
Absolutely! Vev encourages everyone to follow their dreams and start their dream barber shop.
The only thing you need to get things going is a name for your barber shop, then you choose the template that best suits your use case, adjust some settings and you are ready to welcome your first appointments.
To help you even more, every template comes with a default price list you can edit the best way you see fit. Finally, set your business colors and upload a logo to make your barber shop page even more uniquely yours.
Chase that dream!
Can I use Vev’s appointment scheduler for barbers everywhere?
For sure! To quote Jennifer Lopez: “Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza. Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa”. Our way of saying; no matter where your barber shop is on the planet, you can always count on Vev. Right now, we support over 10 languages (with more to come) and over 100 currencies.
What information is needed to schedule an appointment?
That depends slightly. When an barber plans an appointment from their dashboard, only the customer's name is needed. Nothing more.
When a customer books an appointment with your barber shop from your online page, they must fill in their name and email address. Both phone number and address are optional fields.
What happens once a haircut is scheduled?
No matter whether you or one of your customers scheduled the appointment, the chosen time slot is blocked from that moment onwards. It will also appear in your barber shop calendar.
At the same time, an email will be sent to both you and the customer about the upcoming appointment. In addition, another reminder mail will go out just before the haircut.
Can an appointment be rescheduled or canceled once it has been made?
Yes, both you and the customer can do both of these things. However, you as the barber remains in control, deciding exactly until when customers can reschedule or cancel.
No barber shop wants customers canceling just 5 minutes before their appointment.
What do I need to get started with my barber shop?
You only need an email address, a password, and a name for your barber shop. Nothing is forever, you can change everything later. Do make sure to comply with local regulations for barbers. Check whether you need a license or register with a Chamber of Commerce before getting your first appointments.
