Booksy Books Haircuts.

Turn your iPad into a full POS kiosk. Walk-in check-ins, ID verification, digital waivers, and payments — all from one screen at your shop or convention booth. Booksy doesn't have this.

Sell prints, apparel, flash, stickers, whatever you want. Product variants, inventory tracking, buyer reviews, shipping, and a real storefront. Booksy is a scheduling tool — no shop, no commerce.

Real shipping for your merch shop. Shipping rates, label generation, tracking numbers. Ship products to clients anywhere. Booksy can't ship anything because there's nothing to ship.

Sell digital art, courses, tutorials, flash packs, stencil files — anything downloadable. Instant delivery, download tracking. Booksy has no concept of digital products.

Clients book via text message. No app download, no login, no marketplace. Just a text and they're booked. The fastest booking flow in the industry. Booksy requires clients to use their app.

LVL2's AI Booking Bot handles SMS conversations, qualifies leads, collects deposits, and books appointments automatically. Booksy gives you a calendar widget. Not the same thing.

Build intake forms with whatever fields you need. Different forms for different services. Clients fill them out before they arrive. Booksy has no intake forms — because salons don't need them.

Generate stencils from designs right in the platform. Border customization, sharing, daily challenges. A real tattoo tool. Booksy doesn't know what a stencil is.

Upload a whole flash sheet with numbered pieces. Clients pick by number before the appointment — no guessing, no back and forth. Booksy has no flash workflow at all.

All flash drops across the platform in one browsable marketplace. Clients find your flash even if they don't follow you yet. New eyeballs on your work. No per-lead fees ever.

Switch to convention mode when you're on the road. Queue management, walk-in flow, flash-only checkout, booth payments. Booksy has no concept of conventions.

Your own AI assistant trained on business operations, tattooing, and art theory. Helps with client communication, booking management, and creative workflow. Booksy doesn't have AI tools.

Clients describe what they want, AI helps generate tattoo concepts. Speeds up consultation and gets everyone on the same page before the appointment. Credits-based, built in.

Mix and save ink color recipes. Browse ink brands, create custom formulas, organize your ink library. Know exactly what colors you used on every piece.

A full portal your clients actually use — appointment history, forms, payments, healing journey, mood boards, tattoo passport, everything in one place. Not just a booking confirmation email.

Built-in social where you connect with other artists. Post work, follow artists, comment, react, save posts. A real community, not just a marketplace where you're a listing.

Sell monthly memberships to your clients. Recurring revenue, automatic billing, tiered benefits, VIP access. Predictable income every month. Booksy doesn't support memberships.

Let clients buy gift certificates for their friends. Custom amounts, beautiful delivery, wallet redemption at checkout. Built-in, not a third-party workaround.

Every client, every appointment, every note, every payment, every message. Full client profiles with session history, preferences, and spending data. Booksy has basic contacts.

Generate and send professional invoices with PDF export. Track what's paid, what's pending, send reminders. No more chasing payments in DMs.

Send professional estimates before work begins. Price breakdowns, AI-assisted pricing, client approval flow. Set expectations before anyone sits in the chair.

Real waitlist management with automatic matching, offers, and campaigns. Not a spreadsheet, not a DM thread. Organized, automated, and trackable.

List guest spots, manage availability at other shops, let clients find you wherever you're working. Applications, approvals, and scheduling built in.

Track every business expense with categories, receipt uploads, and reporting. Know exactly what you're spending on supplies, rent, travel. Tax time is handled.

Generate tax reports for your business at any time. Income, expenses, net profit, all organized and ready for your accountant.

Clients track their healing with check-ins, milestones, and aftercare reminders. Plus a tattoo passport — a record of every piece they've ever gotten.

Digital waivers clients sign before their appointment — or on the kiosk when they walk in. Templates, versioning, PDF generation. No more paper forms.

XP system, tiered loyalty, achievements, badges. Clients earn rewards for booking, buying, referring friends. Retention on autopilot.

Run marketing campaigns from inside LVL2. Target client segments, track engagement and conversions, automate follow-ups. Built-in, not bolted on.

Client adds merch to their cart and bounces? Automatic recovery emails bring them back to finish the purchase. Revenue you'd otherwise lose.

LVL2 doesn't take a cut of the full tattoo total. Starter and Pro only apply a client-paid fee to the deposit. Booksy's Boost feature charges 30% on a new client's first visit, and a 5-artist studio pays $110+/mo just for scheduling.

Order needles, ink, machines, aftercare right from LVL2. Browse the catalog, checkout, and earn referral commissions. One platform for everything.

Get your own domain on any LVL2 vertical — leveltwo.app, lvl2.ink, lvl2.tattoo, lvl2.hair, and more. A clean, professional URL that's yours.
