Compared with Fresha

Where Fresha costs medspas money, and what we do instead

Each point is paired with what real Fresha users have written about it. These are reviews, not statistics.

The 20% on new clients

A new client usually finds a clinic through a search or a referral, and a larger first ticket means a larger 20% fee.

On a CA$180 facial treatment, Fresha lists 20% on a new marketplace client's first booking (minimum CA$6): CA$36.00. We take 0%.

“This company will rob you with 20% commission fee for ‘new clients’ even though these clients have found you on instagram ads that you are paying for.”

Interac and card fees

At CA$180 a treatment, a percentage on every card adds up faster than a fixed fee ever would.

On the same CA$180, Fresha lists 2.29% + CA$0.20 for an in-person card, Interac included: CA$4.32. A Stripe Interac tap is CA$0.15.

Fresha's pricing page in Canada shows one in-person rate for every card. It has no separate debit rate.

“…unless I pay hundreds of dollars a year, I will be completely locked out of my own account. No access to my calendar, no access to my client list — nothing.”

Savings = Fresha's total minus ours = CA$292.67 a month, times 12 = CA$3,512.04 a year. We assume 85% of card volume is taken in person and the rest online, that 45% of it is Interac debit in person at CA$0.15 a tap, and that the number of payments is card volume divided by your average ticket.

What this does and does not include

  • Fresha's prices are the ones on its own pricing page as of September 2026, and it can change them. Check fresha.com/pricing before you decide anything.
  • Fresha says its 20% new-client fee applies only to clients who first find you on its marketplace, and that returning clients pay nothing. Enter only the clients you would expect Fresha to count. Fresha also says the fee has a maximum cap that its pricing page does not state, so on large tickets we may overstate it.
  • We leave out Fresha's per-tap surcharge, text messages beyond the free allowance, premium support, add-ons and terminal hardware. Every one of those makes Fresha dearer, so leaving them out favours Fresha.
  • Taxes are excluded on both sides. Payout timing, chargebacks and your bank's own fees are not modelled.
  • The savings estimate uses Stripe's published Canadian card rates (2.7% + CA$0.05 in person, CA$0.15 flat for Interac debit, 2.9% + CA$0.30 online), paid to Stripe directly; we make nothing on card payments. It is modelled on a typical Toronto card mix (45% Interac debit in person, the rest credit), so your real Stripe bill will differ with your own mix. Rates read from stripe.com/en-ca/pricing in September 2026; check the page before you decide.
  • Card reader optional for deposits and no-show fees. For in-person tap checkout, Stripe readers from about CA$79 (Bluetooth) or CA$419 (countertop, S700).
  • We launch in Toronto first. The savings estimate is modelled with Stripe's Canadian rates, in Canadian dollars. UK and US figures reuse the same Canadian model and the same subscription number in local currency as an indication only. Fresha's UK prices are unverified: we could only read them on two competitor sites.
