Free online booking and scheduling for solo and small service businesses

A Calendly alternative built for service jobs

Calendly is great for calls and meetings. If you clean houses, groom dogs or detail cars, your price depends on the job, and that's what 1MinuteBooking is built around.

Free plan, no credit card required

Meetings vs. jobs

A meeting has a length. A service job has a size, extras and an address.

Prices that follow the job

Quantity add-ons (bedrooms, dogs, windows), preset options with their own price and time, and add-ons required only for certain services.

Travel fees and travel time

Locations with an extra price, and drive time that blocks your calendar without being added to the client's appointment.

Quote requests with photos

Jobs you can't price up front come in with your questions answered and up to 5 photos.

Several dogs or cars at once

Turn it on and clients can book up to 3 dogs, people or vehicles in one booking, each with its own services.

Deposits on the free plan

Optional Stripe deposits or full payment, a flat amount or a percentage of the real total.

Starter menus for 80+ trades

Pick your trade and your services, add-ons, prices and quote questions are filled in.

More than a booking link

A service business has to price, track and get paid for each job, not just schedule it. That's what your dashboard is for.

Every client's history

Each client has a profile with their contact details, past bookings and your private notes. Search by name or email, or filter by status, payment, date or client.

Receipts in one click

Every booking has a printable receipt marked PAID, UNPAID or DEPOSIT PAID. Stripe payments email the client a receipt automatically.

Change prices any time

Raise a price and new bookings use it, while past bookings keep the price they were booked at. Discount or add to one booking with an adjustment or a coupon.

A detailed booking page

Your services with descriptions and prices, contact details, address, cancellation policy and an About & contact section. Pro adds your logo, photos, a Google reviews link and your colors.

Phone and walk-in bookings

Enter bookings yourself with New booking, priced from your services or as a custom quote. Rebook repeat clients in one click with Duplicate booking.

Track every job

Mark bookings Pending, Confirmed, Completed or No-show, record how each one was paid and see any balance still owed. Analytics and Excel export come with Pro.

Which one fits

Stay with Calendly if

You mostly book calls and meetings, you need two-way sync with Google or Outlook calendars, or several people share one schedule.

Use 1MinuteBooking if

You work alone, your price depends on the job, you travel to clients, or some jobs need a quote first.

Switching takes minutes: pick your trade, adjust the starter services and prices, set your hours and share your new link. There's nothing to import. Past clients are added as they book, or you can add them yourself.

Questions

Is there a free Calendly alternative for service businesses?

Yes. 1MinuteBooking is free for one person with no time limit, including add-on pricing, travel fees, quote requests with photos and Stripe deposits.

Does 1MinuteBooking sync with Google Calendar?

Not two-way. Each confirmed booking has an Add to Calendar button for Google, Apple, Outlook.com or iCal, but events already in your calendar don't block times on your booking page.

Can clients pay when they book?

Yes, if you connect your own Stripe account: a deposit or the full price, on the free plan. 1MinuteBooking takes 2% of each charge on top of Stripe's fee.

Can I still book consultations and calls?

Yes. Many trades start with a free consultation or discovery call, and services can be marked as video, phone or in person with locations.

Can my team use it?

No. Each account is one person with one calendar and one booking page.

We'll ask which Google account to use next.
