Online appointment requests. 100% your call.
Guests request.
You decide.
Put your booking link in your Instagram bio. Guests can request an appointment anytime — but only the ones you approve land on your calendar. No more back-and-forth messages.
bokko is built for people who don't want to spend their day coordinating appointments over messages.
Sound familiar?
You're not alone. Hairdressers, beauticians, nail techs and other appointment-based providers often start out this way.
Messages keep coming at night
Messenger, SMS, Instagram DM — your phone buzzes until morning because everyone writes when it suits them.
Forgotten appointments
In a notebook, in your head, in Google Calendar? Something always slips through, and someone shows up you weren't expecting.
No more calendar Tetris
Fitting guests into your schedule late at night, on weekends, or mid-work? With bokko you control your time — not the incoming messages.
Your booking link.
bokko is the link you put in your Instagram bio — and guests book themselves. No "system" to set up. Just a link. That's it.
How it works day to day
Promises aren't enough — see exactly what you get when you log in.
What guests see on your booking page
Your own booking page, with your name, services and hours. Guests pick a time, enter their details — and send a request. They don't book themselves in. They ask.
- Categorised service list
- Suggested time slots highlighted
- Returning guests fill in faster
Requests and calendar — in one place, in real time
Incoming requests wait in a separate list. Accept, modify or decline — your calendar updates instantly.
- Conflict detection with existing bookings
- Reschedule request handling
- Guest profiles and no-show history
Once you decide — the system handles the rest
After you decide, the system sends the response. Guests automatically get an SMS and email. A reminder goes out before the appointment too. Cancellation or reschedule? Also automatic.
- Instant SMS + email confirmation
- Automatic reminder 24 hours before
- Cancellation and reschedule with automatic notification
What bokko records with every appointment request
We automatically save when the guest agreed, and exactly which rules they accepted.
Your rules
Guests can only request an appointment after clearly agreeing to your cancellation policy.
Precise record
The system stores the exact second the guest accepted, along with the rules that were in effect at that time.
There if you need it
If a guest later disputes a charge, you can see exactly what they agreed to — in one click.
Not a system — just a link
bokko doesn't try to solve everything. Just the things that actually hurt.
Not instant booking
Guests don't book themselves into the first available slot. They send a request — you decide whether to accept. Control stays with you.
No "system" to set up
No onboarding, no integration, no learning curve. There's a link you put out there — done. Ready in 2 minutes.
No need to chase anyone
SMS and email reminders go out automatically. Guests don't forget, you don't call. No-show fees and deposits are handled too.
