## Key features

- **Booking website:** Trafft generates a standalone booking page for each business that can be customized, shared as a link or QR code, or embedded. A custom domain and removal of Trafft branding are listed too.
- **Payments and deposits:** Take payment at booking through Square, Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net or Mollie, plus deposits, coupons and gift cards. The Mini plan lists Square payments only.
- **Staff, services and locations:** Set up employees with their own working hours and calendars, services with extras and packages, and several business locations. Location counts depend on the plan.
- **Reminders and WhatsApp:** Automated and custom notifications go out by email, and WhatsApp messaging is listed on every paid plan. SMS credits are not included on Mini and Growth.
- **Group and recurring bookings:** Group bookings, recurring appointments, waiting lists and resource management (rooms or equipment) are listed in the plan comparison.
- **Mobile apps and API:** Android and iOS apps are listed on every plan, and the plan lists include an API with webhooks. A white-label mobile app is available on request.

## Good for

- Very small service businesses that want a free booking page
- Salons and clinics that need locations, staff calendars and deposits
- Teams that prefer pricing by user count over per-seat tiers

## Worth knowing

- The free plan is limited to 1 user, 1 location and 100 appointments a month.
- The pricing page shows a sale with crossed-out prices and a countdown timer but no end date, so the listed prices may rise.
- SMS credits are sold separately; Mini and Growth include none, Professional 5 a month and Business 10.
- Monthly billing costs 50% or more above the annual rate, and each user over the plan limit is charged extra.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Trafft you would be making the WhatsApp Business API, which Meta opens only through approved partners. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 3.0 is higher than 71 of the 89 other calendar and scheduling apps we grade. It costs $47.88 a year.

- You could make: Appointment booking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: The WhatsApp Business API, which Meta opens only through approved partners.
- You could not: Booking pages that read and write other people's calendars and send the emails.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Calendar, Zoom and Microsoft Teams among them, and has an API.
- You could not: People on the other end: coaches. No app builder makes those.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
