# GrabMySlot

> Deposit-first booking software for independent service businesses. No monthly fee — you pay 3% plus Stripe's standard payment processing fee only when you collect a deposit.

GrabMySlot helps tradespeople, service businesses, and independent operators eliminate no-shows by requiring a deposit at the time of booking. When a customer has money at stake, they show up.

## What GrabMySlot does

- Deposit-first booking: customers pay a deposit before the appointment is confirmed
- Calendar sync: connects to Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook
- SMS reminders: automated reminders reduce last-minute cancellations
- Cancellation policy enforcement: automatic, no awkward conversations
- Works for any service business: trades, beauty, fitness, education, mobile services

## Pricing

Free to start. 3% platform fee plus Stripe's standard payment processing fee (2.9% + $0.30) applies only when a deposit is collected. No monthly fee. No setup fee.

## Who it's for

Any service business where customers book in advance and sometimes don't show: plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, roofers, landscapers, tattoo artists, personal trainers, music teachers, mobile groomers, photographers, and more.
