Best Booking System for Salons in the Czech Republic (2026)
Comparing salon booking systems? Noona, Reservio, Reservanto, MYFOX, Bookio, Fresha and Altegio side by side: prices, booking limits, SMS and trade-offs.
Choosing a booking system for your salon is a bit like choosing scissors. They all cut. But the ones that fit your hand, your style and the way you work are the ones you reach for every day.
In the Czech Republic, you’ll keep running into seven names: Reservio, Reservanto, MYFOX, Bookio, Fresha, Altegio and Noona. On a feature list they look similar. The real differences are in how much you pay as you grow, and how much each one helps you bring clients back.

How we compared the systems
A brand-new salon can get by with almost anything. The differences show up once the calendar fills up. For each system, we answer the same questions:
- Price: per staff member, by number of bookings, or with transaction fees. This decides how your bill will change as you grow.
- Booking limits: whether the plan caps the number of bookings per month or per rolling 30 days.
- SMS reminders: how much they cost. Reminders are the best defence against no-shows.
- Strengths: what the system does well, including client retention tools.
- Things to consider: trade-offs worth knowing up front.
- Best for: which kind of salon it suits.

- Best for: trying online booking for free, and businesses outside beauty.
3. Reservanto

- Price: Basic free for one resource, then Lite CZK 166, Professional CZK 499 and Premium CZK 1,249 per month, excluding VAT.

- Strengths: POS and bookings in one app, deposits and card payments via SumUp, a simple website builder, multiple locations on all plans, and a 30-day free trial of the full version.
- Things to consider: SMS costs grow with your number of clients, and staff calendars are paid separately on Standard. The design of the admin and client side isn’t exactly its strong point.
- Best for: salons that want a simple combination of POS and bookings.
5. Bookio
Bookio is a Slovak booking system used by many businesses across services and hospitality – from beauty to healthcare, sports and restaurants.
- Price: Freemium €0 (up to 5 users), Basic €19 (1 user), Standard €39 (5 users) and Premium €69 per month (unlimited users). Paid plans include the first month free. Source

6. Fresha
Fresha is an international beauty and wellness platform with a consumer marketplace where clients search for and book salons.
- Price: subscription plus variable fees. When the marketplace brings you a brand-new client, Fresha charges a one-time fee of 20% of their first booking, with a minimum amount per client. Card payments carry a processing fee on every transaction.
- Strengths: reach through a large international marketplace.
- Things to consider: the new-client fee is a client acquisition cost, so factor it in if you plan to grow mainly through the marketplace. Import your existing clients before publishing your profile so your regulars aren’t counted as new.
- Best for: salons that want visibility on an international marketplace.
7. Altegio
Altegio is a business management platform that covers bookings, payroll and inventory.
- Price: from CZK 292 per month with annual billing, excluding VAT. The price grows with the number of staff; SMS and WhatsApp messages are paid separately. No commission on bookings, with a 7-day free trial. Source
- Strengths: payroll and inventory management alongside bookings.
- Things to consider: there is no free plan, and because of its scope, setup takes longer before the team gets used to it in day-to-day operations.
- Best for: larger salons that want payroll and inventory in the same tool.
So which system should you choose?
It depends on what stage you’re at and what you want to optimise for.

- You want to reach clients on an international marketplace: Fresha – with the new-client fee in your budget.
- You need in-depth payroll and inventory: Altegio.
- You’re building a salon that’s meant to grow: Noona. Pricing follows your team size, not your number of bookings, SMS reminders are unlimited on Premium, and repeat bookings, packages and win-back campaigns are built into the system. Your calendar, your clients, your growth.
