A salon with 3 professionals and 10 new clients a month, per year
- Team plan: €12.95/mo
- 3 professionals included: €0
- New marketplace clients: €0 commission
- Monthly fee: not published, quote on request
- 25% + VAT of each new client's first appointment: with 10 a month and a €35 average ticket, €87.50/mo
- Online payments: +2% + VAT on every prepaid booking
Over €890 saved per year, counting only Treatwell's commissions against Bellioo's fee (Treatwell's excluding VAT; Bellioo's including it) — and before Treatwell's monthly fee or the 2% on online payments.
Bellioo's prices already include VAT; Treatwell's are shown excluding VAT, exactly as it publishes them. With its VAT added, the gap would be even bigger.
How we did the maths
- Scenario: a salon with 3 professionals and 10 new clients a month arriving from the marketplace, with an average ticket of €35, over 12 months. These are our assumptions: swap in your salon's numbers.
- Bellioo: Team plan, €12.95/month × 12 = €155.40 a year; new clients pay no commission.
- Treatwell: 25% of every new client's first appointment → 25% × €35 × 10 clients = €87.50/month × 12 = €1,050 a year in commissions alone. We leave out its monthly fee, because it isn't published on its website, and the 2% on online payments.
- Bellioo publishes its prices including VAT; Treatwell states its fees and commissions are subject to VAT and we use them without it, so the real gap is bigger.
- Treatwell data is taken from its official partner pricing page (see Sources) and checked again whenever they change; the last review date is shown at the top of the page.
Who is each option for?
Bellioo is for you if…
- You want a flat, published fee (from €9.95 a month) instead of handing over 25% of every new client's first appointment.
- You don't want to sign up for 12 months: with Bellioo you pay month to month and cancel whenever you like.
- Your clients come through your own channels and you want online bookings, reminders and loyalty without commissions.
Bellioo is not for you if…
- You count on the marketplace to bring you new clients (and paying 25% for each one is worth it to you): Bellioo's has just launched and today has very few businesses and users, so the visibility included in your fee is worth little for now; your own channels bring in your clients.
- You need online payments with deposits or prepayment: Bellioo doesn't process appointment payments yet.
- You want WhatsApp reminders within the base fee: in Bellioo they come with Pro (+€8.70/month, 200 messages a month, then €0.05 each) and only reach clients with an account who have switched that channel on.
- You need built-in e-invoicing (VeriFactu or TicketBAI): Bellioo doesn't have it, nor a POS or stock control.
Treatwell is a better fit if…
- You want to win new clients from its marketplace and paying 25% + VAT of each one's first appointment is worth it to you.
- You want to take online prepayments (2% + VAT) and don't mind a minimum 12-month contract.
- You need VeriFactu or TicketBAI e-invoicing inside the same tool (Advanced plan).
