Subscription only. Card processing is not included — it depends on your ticket mix and volume, and every platform quotes it differently.
Phorest and Zenoti publish no public price list. Their rows are third-party estimates and are labelled as such, not presented as their prices.
Published prices checked against each vendor's own pricing page on 2026-08-05. Vendors change prices; check before you commit.
Card processing is the other half of what you pay, and it is usually the bigger half.
