Quick answer

Switching from Booksy to LushLane: What to Expect

Join UK salons, barbers and beauty studios switching to a flat-fee booking platform built for owners — not marketplaces.

Switching from Booksy to LushLane: What to Expect

If you're on Booksy, Treatwell or Fresha, you've probably noticed the fees creeping up — commission on new clients, paid promotion add-ons, and per-staff pricing that punishes growth. LushLane works differently: a flat £22/month, no commission, ever.

What you can move across

  • Services & pricing — copied across in our setup wizard.
  • Staff & schedules — unlimited staff included on every plan.
  • Client list — import via CSV (we handle the awkward formatting).
  • Google reviews — connect your Google Business Profile and they sync automatically.

How long it takes

Most salons are fully operational on LushLane within an afternoon. The free onboarding call covers the migration, embeds your booking widget on your website, and configures your deposit policy.

What you'll save

A typical salon on Booksy paying £29/month + 30% commission on new clients spends £180–£400/month in commission alone. On LushLane, that's £22 flat. Most salons cover their annual subscription in their first week.
