Growth
Build demand for your own booking page through Managed's advertising service. Put marketplace discovery spend into ads for your business. Managed takes no booking commission.
See what marketplace demand contributes to your business. Booksy combines booking software with a consumer marketplace. Separate marketplace bookings from direct and returning clients, and weigh optional Booksy Boost charges against the clients they bring, before you change your booking link.
Set the budget for your own client enquiries. The service costs £299 a month or 10% of ad spend, whichever is greater, charged on top of the ad spend. For example, £5,000 of ad spend means a £500 fee. On £2,000 of spend, 10% would be £200, so the fee is the £299 minimum.
See a planning range for the bookings your ads could bring. Managed typically sees a 3:1 to 4:1 ROAS. Use that as a planning range, not a guarantee, and agree measures in your quote before you scale spend.
Every Managed plan includes a free hosted booking website. Managed has a free plan, then Starter and Growth. See pricing. Stripe processor fees are separate.
Advertising services are separate from your Managed subscription. No published Booksy marketplace commission figure is used here; compare your own invoices. ROAS figures are typical, not guaranteed. Facts checked 18 October 2026.
