Why Helmox pricing is different
No commissions — ever
Some salon software platforms charge a percentage on every booking, especially those that operate as marketplaces. Helmox never takes a cut of your revenue. Whether you receive 10 or 10,000 bookings per month, the price stays the same. Compare this with Fresha and Treatwell, where marketplace bookings carry commissions.
A genuine free plan
Many "free" salon tools are actually 14-day trials that force you to subscribe. Helmox Starter is free with no expiration date. Use it for as long as you want. It is a real plan with real features — not a demo or a teaser.
Flat monthly pricing
No setup fees. No annual contracts required. No per-user fees within a plan. No transaction costs. One monthly price covers everything included in your plan. You always know exactly what you will pay.
Upgrade and downgrade freely
Business is seasonal. Maybe you need the Team plan during summer and Pro the rest of the year. Switch plans at any time — upgrades take effect immediately, downgrades apply at the end of the billing period. There is no lock-in or cancellation penalty.

Which plan is right for you?
You are a solo beautician or hairdresser just starting out. You want to replace your paper diary with a digital calendar and client database. You are not yet ready for online bookings but want a professional system to organize your work.
You have an established client base and want to offer online booking. You want automated reminders to reduce no-shows. You need revenue reports and the ability to export data. You are a solo professional or salon owner without multiple staff.
Your salon has multiple stylists, beauticians or therapists. Each team member needs their own calendar. Clients should be able to book with their preferred professional. You need a consolidated dashboard to manage the whole team.
Is salon software worth the cost?
Let's do the math. Consider these common salon pain points and how affordable salon management software pays for itself:
No-show reduction
The average salon loses €2,000–5,000 per year to no-shows. Automated reminders (Pro plan) can reduce no-shows by 30–40%. If you recover even €500 in annual revenue, the Pro plan (€228/year) pays for itself more than twice over.
Time saved on phone calls
If you spend 30 minutes daily answering booking calls, that is 15 hours per month. At an average service rate of €30/hour, that is €450 in potential revenue lost to admin. Online booking eliminates most of these calls.
Client retention
A well-maintained client database helps you follow up with inactive clients, send birthday wishes and personalize treatments. Even a small improvement in retention can add thousands in annual revenue.
Professional image
A polished booking page and organized system signal professionalism to clients. This intangible benefit translates into higher perceived value, better reviews and stronger word-of-mouth referrals.
