Why you need integrated online payments in 2025 — and how Bookr delivers them

In 2025, customers expect to pay quickly, online, without hassle. From beauty services to fitness classes or medical consultations, digital payments are no longer a fad — they are a necessity. And with Bookr, you can integrate them directly into your appointments.
Here's how it works and why it matters:
1. Fast and secure receipts
The money goes directly into your account — no cash, no POS, no delays. Whether it's full payment or an advance, Bookr takes care of the complete process. Customers pay in a few clicks, and you're protected against last-minute cancellations.
2. Reduction of cancellations by up to 50%
Customers who pay for a service (in full or in part) are much more motivated to present themselves. Studies show that prepayment reduces the no-show rate by up to 50% in service industries. In Bookr, you can set certain services to require an advance, returnable or not — you choose.
3. Increasing customer confidence and comfort
A modern customer appreciates flexibility. With Bookr, you can pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, without wondering if the salon accepts cash or if you have to come with money at it. Everything is transparent, digital and secure.
4. Impulsive buying — use it to your advantage
With integrated online payments, the customer can book and pay at the time he decides, without obstacles. This impulse buying effect increases conversion in particular to:
- beauty sessions (massage, treatments, manicure)
- private trainings
- psychological counseling
- promo-pakketten
- registration for courses or workshops
5. Automatic receipts for courses, workshops and subscriptions
Do you organize training courses, beauty academies, masterclasses or recurring sessions? Bookr allows booking + payment in the same stream. The customer reserves their place, and you collect without manual intervention. You can also set conditions: minimum down payment, staggered payments or automatic default notifications.
6. All in one platform
You no longer need separate applications for payments. With Bookr, you have:
- Complete transaction history
- Payment link integrated in programming
- Automated confirmations and updated client sheets
- Total control: you choose which services accept advance payment, and under what conditions
