Tattoo booking software for artists and studios

Tattoo scheduling software with a calendar per artist

Tattoo scheduling software should follow the artists, not the other way round. In Twizzlo every artist gets a staff profile, an individual schedule and their own calendar view. You assign the services each artist does, so a client booking a fine-line session only sees the artists who do fine line.

Set working hours, time off and blackout dates per artist, and plan shifts across one or several locations with Employee Shifts. A guest artist gets a profile and a shift for the dates they are in the chair.

Your front desk can be a non-bookable staff member with Twizzlo access, and role-based access decides what each person can see and change. That is how tattoo studio booking software should work: each artist runs their own book and the owner sees the whole studio. Working a single chair? The same calendar works as tattoo artist scheduling software for one.

What Twizzlo costs a tattoo studio: Free or $29.99 a month

Twizzlo has two plans, both priced per business, not per artist or per location. Free is $0 a month for up to 150 bookings, with email reminders and no SMS. It is a free plan, not a trial. Business Pro is $29.99 a month per business for unlimited bookings and 50 SMS a month, then $0.03 each, with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Both plans include unlimited artists, locations and client profiles, and Business Pro includes every Twizzlo feature with no paid add-ons.

Online payments carry your Stripe processing rate plus a 1.5% Twizzlo platform fee. Per-seat pricing adds up as a studio grows: Booksy, for example, lists $29.99 a month plus tax with one team member, then $20 a month for each additional member (read on Sep 17, 2026), which is $89.99 plus tax for four artists. On Business Pro, a fifth artist or a guest artist does not change the $29.99.

Tattoo appointment scheduling software that protects long sessions

A no-show on a six-hour back piece costs an artist a day in the chair. Tattoo appointment scheduling software should make that less likely before the day, not after.

Payment up front is where tattoo appointment booking software earns its place. Turn on prepaid bookings for the services you choose, and the client pays the full session price online through Stripe when they book, so a session is only held once it is paid. If a client does not show, your studio decides whether to keep or refund that payment. Consults and touch-ups can be booked without paying up front.

Buffer times keep a gap after each session for cleanup and setup. Custom booking rules, cancellation handling and no-show fees back the policy you write, and confirmations and reminders go out by email, and by SMS on Business Pro.

Plans change, and good tattoo appointment software lets them change without a gap in the book: clients reschedule themselves from the booking link, and the old time goes back on your booking page for someone else. For policy wording and how studios set amounts, read the guide to tattoo deposits.

A tattoo scheduling app clients open from Instagram or any phone

Most tattoo clients find you on Instagram and want to book from their phone. Twizzlo works like a tattoo scheduling app without the download: your booking page runs in any phone browser, so clients tap the link, pick a service and an artist, see open times and book, 24/7.

Put the link in your Instagram bio, on your Google Business Profile and on your website. If you run more than one studio, each location gets its own booking link. Confirmations go out when a client books and reminders follow before the session.

Artists open the same calendar in their phone browser to check the day ahead, and clients reschedule from the link instead of sending another DM.

Walk-ins and flash days on the same calendar

Walk-ins are part of shop life, especially on flash days. With walk-in bookings, the front desk adds a walk-in to an artist's calendar and that time comes off the booking page at once, so an online client cannot book the same slot.

For a flash day, create short flash services with their own duration and price and assign them to the artists working the event. Real-time availability shows who is free, and next-hour insights help the desk see what is coming up.

That is what tattoo shop software should do on a busy Saturday: booked sessions and walk-ins on one calendar per artist. The same setup works as tattoo shop appointment software for studios that are booked out weeks ahead.

Tattoo software that remembers every client

Returning clients expect you to remember their last piece and how they like to work. Client records are the part of the software tattoo studios use every day, and in Twizzlo they sit on one profile that every artist with access can read before the session.

Search and filter the client list, or add a client by hand when someone calls or walks in.

• Client history and visit log: every past session and touch-up in one place
• Notes and preferences: placement, style and the details you want to remember
• Allergies noted on the profile, visible to the artist before the session
• Total spend per client, appointments and tips included
• Repeat client tracking, so you can see who keeps coming back

Payments, tips and studio insights

Tattoo business software should make getting paid simple. Clients pay online at booking through Stripe and can add a tip at checkout, and payments go to the studio's Stripe account. When a client pays in the studio, staff record it as a manual payment, so every client's total spend stays complete.

Revenue and booking insights show how the studio is doing by day, week or month, and staff utilization shows which artists have room in their book. Commission splits are not a Twizzlo feature, so keep artist pay in your own process.
