How to Turn On Your SMS Appointment Reminders
Never miss a client again - keep your column full and running smoothly
Why SMS reminders matter
SMS reminders help reduce no-shows, last-minute cancellations, and those “Oops, I totally forgot!” messages we’ve all received.
Delivering reminders automatically means less admin for you and a more reliable, predictable schedule.
SMS Pricing
If you choose SMS reminders, each message is billed at 9c per SMS.
SMS credits are prepaid:
-
A $10 credit pack is charged upfront
-
When your balance drops below $1, an automatic $10 top-up is applied to keep reminders sending without interruption
How to set it up
-
From the Home screen, tap your profile image in the top-left corner.
-
Select Client Notifications.
-
Choose your preferred reminder type — Email, SMS, or both.
-
Select when reminders should be sent — 24h, 48h, or 72h before the appointment.
-
Save your settings.
All future appointments will follow your new reminder preferences.
Important-
Ensure your credit or debit card is updated in Payments settings - this is required for reminders to send.
-
If a client’s mobile number is wrong or outdated, the SMS cannot be delivered.
→ Quick tip: update numbers while your client is in the chair, during processing time.
💡 Tips
Do a quick “client card refresh” every few months
Like a clarifying shampoo for your database — keeps everything clean and updated.
Turn on auto-renewal
So your reminders never stop mid-week.
