The number next to “Here’s what you’ll pay”

Fetched from vagaro.com/pro/pricing on September 22, 2026. The block titled “Here’s what you’ll pay” displayed $30.00 and $23.99/mo. The lower figure is labeled an exclusive rate for the first 6 months. Under that, the staff control runs 1 Just Me, then 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7+. The page also says cancel anytime with no cancellation fees.

That is the pair of dollars the page put on screen for the position we fetched. It is not a printed table of eight prices. A nail salon with five techs should not treat $23.99 as “five people included,” and should not treat it as “times five,” because the page did not say either sentence.

The $10 license, which is a different sentence

A FAQ asks whether staff across locations has a separate cost. The answer: each bookable calendar license you add to a business location costs $10 (US), up to seven licenses. Once you reach seven licenses, you can add more employees at no extra cost. Employee profiles can be shared across locations.

$10 is not a substitute for the $30.00 / $23.99 pair, and the pair is not a substitute for $10. Both were on the page. We quote both. We do not add them into a formula Vagaro did not publish, and we do not guess the slider price at “4” or “6.”

Locations, trial, and the card reader

Their multi-location FAQ says each location has its own cost from the features you add, and that they do not add a separate multi-location fee on top. Another FAQ says a 30-day trial is available so you can test the fit before a subscription. That trial is Vagaro’s. It does not apply to AIVA or to Calendar.

They also advertise a free card reader when you sign up for Vagaro Merchant Services. The asterisk is theirs. We do not turn that into a processing-rate comparison, because this fetch did not include a card-rate table.

Platform lines with no dollar on the page

The same URL describes Flagship Syncing, access levels, payroll and rent collection, webhooks and APIs, integrated payments, Buy Now Pay Later through Affirm up to $30,000, a branded app, and booking through Google, Apple Maps, Instagram, Alexa, and Facebook. Vera, their AI assistant, is described as help for marketing, empty slots, descriptions, and client communication. No price for Vera, payroll, or the branded app appeared in the text we fetched. Those stay unpriced here.

“Get booked through Google” is their phrase. We do not relabel it as Bukkii Google Reserve.

What a flat book costs instead

If the slider is the bill you want to stop, and you still want a booking website plus Google Reserve, Bukkii Calendar is $20/month with unlimited staff and unlimited customers. Get Calendar — $20/mo. Calendar does not include Vagaro payroll, payments, or a branded app, and it does not answer the phone. The decision page, with other names on the short list, is Vagaro alternatives. One answer, without that list, is the short spoke Vagaro alternative. Head-to-head with Booksy is Booksy vs Vagaro.

The phone is still separate. AIVA is $200 one-time. No monthly plan fee. No free trial. Keeping Vagaro for checkout and adding only the phone is keep Vagaro or Booksy and add AI. The pricing hub for other booking tools is nail salon booking software pricing.
