A single no-show is not just a lost booking — it is a gap in your day that you cannot fill at short notice. For a barber charging £30 per cut and seeing 10 clients a day, even one no-show per day adds up to over £900 a month in lost revenue.
The most effective way to reduce no-shows is to require a deposit at booking. When a client has paid £10 upfront, they have a financial reason to turn up or cancel in advance. Clippr makes this simple — deposits are collected via Stripe at the point of booking, before the appointment is confirmed.
You set the deposit amount per service. You set the cancellation policy. Clippr handles the payment, the refund logic, and the client communication automatically.
Deposits are collected via Stripe at the point of booking. Secure, trusted, and compliant. No manual payment handling.
Set a different deposit amount for each service. Charge more for longer appointments where a no-show costs you more.
Clippr tracks no-show history per client. Automatically require higher deposits or card holds from clients who have no-showed before.
Set a cancellation cutoff window. Clients who cancel inside the window forfeit their deposit. You keep the money for the blocked time.
Cancellations outside the cutoff are refunded automatically via Stripe. No manual processing, no awkward conversations.
Every no-show is recorded against the client's profile. See your no-show rate in the analytics dashboard.
Most barbers charge between £5 and £15 as a deposit, or 20–50% of the service price. The goal is to make the cost of not turning up feel real. Even a £5 deposit significantly reduces no-shows.
You decide the policy. Clippr lets you set a cancellation cutoff — for example, cancellations more than 4 hours before the appointment can receive a refund. Cancellations inside the cutoff forfeit the deposit.
No, unless you choose to. Most barbers take a partial deposit at booking and collect the remainder in the chair. You set the deposit amount per service.
