A Private Online Booking System for Your Clients

Your own booking channel — not a marketplace. Your clients, your data, no commission.

Wiiz is a private online booking system: your own channel where only your own clients see and book with you — not a public marketplace where you appear next to competitors. It sets up in minutes, is free with no monthly fee, takes no commission on your bookings, and your client list and data stay exclusively yours.

What a private booking system is

A private booking system is your own channel where your clients book online, without a public marketplace in between. You share a booking link — on Instagram, Google, WhatsApp, or your website — and clients book 24/7. Unlike a marketplace, you aren’t exposed to a general audience and you don’t appear next to competitors; you simply give your own clients an easy way to book.

How to set up your own booking channel in Wiiz

  • Create a free account and add your business.
  • Add services, durations, and prices.
  • Add your staff and working hours.
  • Get your own booking link and share it anywhere.
  • Clients book online and receive automatic reminders.

Why a private channel and not a marketplace

A marketplace can bring new clients, but at a cost: you appear next to your competitors and often pay commission on the clients you acquire through it. For a business that mostly serves regular clients, that simply reduces revenue. Wiiz takes the opposite approach: the clients you bring in stay yours, and every euro from every appointment stays in your business.

Data ownership and privacy

Because the channel is private, your client list, appointment history, and contact details belong to your business and are exportable. You can reach your own clients for repeat bookings or campaigns without depending on a platform’s terms — which also makes data-protection compliance easier.

Fewer no-shows with reminders

Every booking in your private channel can trigger automatic SMS reminders from €0.06 per message, plus free push notifications for clients who use the app — reducing cancellations and missed appointments.
