DaySync's Free plan is a complete booking system for one person — online booking page, calendar, client records — and Pro is $25 a month, or $250 a year, flat per location with unlimited team members. Booksy is $29.99 a month plus $20 a month for every additional team member (US pricing), with no free tier; its optional Boost promotion takes a one-time 30% of a new client's first visit. On DaySync there is no marketplace commission of any kind: a client who books through your link is your client, whether it is their first visit or their fiftieth.
Booksy pricing and fees checked against Booksy's published US pricing, June 2026. Their terms can change — always confirm on their site.
Booksy starts at $29.99 and adds $20 for each extra team member — a three-chair shop pays about $70 a month before processing. DaySync Pro is $25 flat per location, whatever the headcount.
Booksy's Boost charges a one-time 30% of a new client's first visit, and reviewers on BBB and Capterra report disputes over clients flagged as Boost-acquired who came from their own links. DaySync has no equivalent fee — there is nothing to argue about.
Booksy offers a 14-day trial, then the subscription starts. DaySync keeps a genuinely free plan a solo barber can stay on for good — no card required.
A shop with three barbers pays $25 a month on DaySync Pro, flat. The same shop pays Booksy $69.99 a month in subscription alone — and each Boost-promoted new client costs a further 30% of their first cut. A walk-in who found you on your own Instagram costs nothing extra on either platform, but on DaySync there is no promotion machinery that could ever classify them otherwise.
The honest counterpoint: Booksy's consumer marketplace is genuinely strong, especially for US barbers — Booksy says 44 million customers book through it. If that audience fills your chairs, Boost's 30% is a customer-acquisition cost, not a penalty. If your regulars and referrals fill them, it is money you do not need to spend.
If Booksy’s marketplace is where your city looks for a barber, that distribution is real — the question is whether it is worth per-member pricing plus 30% of every promoted first visit.
Set up services, durations and shop hours in an afternoon. The Free plan is the whole booking system, not a trial clock.
