FAQ

WhatsApp booking for salons: common questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Can clients book a salon appointment on WhatsApp?

Yes. MonoChat collects the service, preferred staff member, day and time in the conversation with a no-code flow or a WhatsApp Flows form, then confirms the appointment and passes it to your team or to your booking system through the API, webhooks or custom functions.

Does it work with my existing salon booking software or calendar?

The assistant offers the times and rules you give it. For live availability, connect your booking software or calendar with custom functions or the API so the assistant can check and create appointments during the conversation.

How do appointment reminders help with no-shows?

MonoChat sends a confirmation and a reminder before the appointment with approved WhatsApp templates. Clients can confirm or ask to reschedule with one tap, so your team learns about a change early enough to offer the slot to someone else.

Can I take a deposit before confirming a booking?

Yes. MonoChat creates a payment link with your own payment provider account and sends it in the conversation. Payment events can trigger the confirmation message automatically.

Can I send offers to past clients on WhatsApp?

Yes, to clients who have opted in to receive messages from you. Campaigns are sent as approved WhatsApp template messages through WhatsApp bulk messaging, and replies arrive in the shared inbox.

How much does it cost to start?

You can start on the free plan, which includes 1,000 outgoing messages a month, and upgrade when your volume grows. See the pricing page for current plans.
