Guide
How to move from Booksy to Shopstar
Switching booking platforms usually means an evening of copying your price list into a new system, one service at a time. Shopstar removes that step: because your Booksy business page is public, the importer can read your services, staff, opening hours, prices, and photos straight from your link — you just review and confirm.
Once imported, each service is a real booking product with its own duration, price, and staff, your team members are bookable resources, and your weekly hours become availability customers can book against. From there you can do things Booksy cannot: sell physical products and retail, digital downloads, memberships, and event tickets from the same page, all under your own brand and domain.
You start free and only pay as you grow, with local payment methods and automatic payouts. It is the simplest way for a salon, barber, spa, or any appointment-based business to move off a marketplace and onto a store they actually own.
FAQ
Moving from Booksy, answered
- What exactly gets imported?
- Your services (with descriptions, prices, and durations), your staff, your weekly opening hours, and your logo and photos. You review everything before anything is created.
- Do I have to re-enter my staff and hours?
- No. Staff come across as bookable resources and your opening hours become availability. We ask you to confirm the hours, since booking systems occasionally export them oddly.
- What about my existing appointments and customers?
- The importer moves your catalogue — services, staff, hours, prices, and photos — not your future appointments. You set your availability in Shopstar and take new bookings there; reach out if you need help moving anything else.
- Can I sell more than bookings?
- Yes — that is the point of moving. Alongside bookings you can sell physical products, digital downloads, memberships, and event tickets from the same page.
- Is it free to move?
- Yes. Start free, import your Booksy catalogue, and only pay per sale or subscribe for lower per-sale fees once it saves you money.
