Practical guide
Is Fresha really free, or are there hidden fees? What to check.
Free booking plans can still cost money through other fees, so check Fresha’s current pricing page and compare the total for your own volume. I cannot confirm Fresha’s present terms here; the list below shows the fee types to look for on any free plan. Nexis Business OS charges a flat subscription instead and has a 7-day free trial.
7-day free trial of the full Pro plan with 150 free AI tokens. After the trial, choose Starter at $49.99 USD/month (200 AI tokens a month) or Pro at $149.99 (750 AI tokens a month).
Is this the right workflow for you?

Questions about this workflow
Is Fresha really free or are there hidden fees?
Check Fresha’s current pricing and terms for payment processing, message and new-client fees and paid add-ons, and estimate the total at your volume. Any free plan should be judged the same way.
What fees should I check on any booking platform?
Check the monthly price, payment processing fees, charges for text or WhatsApp messages, fees on new clients you did not bring yourself, and the price of extra team members. Compare the total for your own volume, not only the headline price.
