See the bookings assigned to you and who you're serving.
Respond to a team invitation
A studio invited you to their team — review the details and accept or decline.

Pay your team
Contracts, invoices from your freelancers, and salary records — review, approve, and keep the paper trail.

Check-ins, breaks, and manual entries — accurate hours without the spreadsheet.
Approve or reject bookings

Time off and holidays
Approve holiday and sick leave, close days for the whole studio, and see what happens to appointments already booked in that period.
Booking and shop settings
What each booking rule does, the limits it accepts, and what your shop needs to stay open.
Sell bundles
Offer a set of visits at one price, sell it online or in the shop, and what the limits are.
Your invoices from Bookbaar
