Common questions
Answers about booking, payments, and getting started with Nextro.
How is Nextro different from Acuity Scheduling?
Acuity Scheduling is a general-purpose scheduling tool used across many types of businesses. Nextro is specifically designed for appointment-based beauty, wellness, and service businesses — with niche-relevant features like portfolio displays, reviews, and deposit collection built in.
Does Nextro give you your own URL?
Yes. Your booking website lives at nextroapp.com/book/yourname — a clean, shareable URL you control. Acuity-powered booking pages use Acuity's own URL structure.
Is Nextro cheaper than Acuity?
Nextro is a flat £29/month. Acuity pricing varies by plan. For UK-based service businesses, Nextro may offer a more focused set of relevant features at a straightforward price.
Can I show my portfolio on a Nextro booking page?
Yes. Upload photos of your work — nails, hair, lashes, tattoos — directly to your booking website. Acuity does not natively include a portfolio feature.
