Common questions
Answers about booking, payments, and getting started with Nextro.
Does Fresha charge commission?
Fresha's pricing has evolved. On some plans, Fresha charges a percentage of each booking made through their marketplace. On paid plans, the structure varies. Nextro is a flat £29/month with no commission on any booking — ever.
What's the difference between a marketplace and an independent booking website?
A marketplace (like Fresha) lists your business alongside other businesses. Customers can discover and compare competitors. An independent booking website (like Nextro) is your own URL — customers who visit only see your business.
Can I move from Fresha to Nextro?
Yes. You can set up your Nextro booking website and begin directing new customers to your new link. You can continue managing existing Fresha bookings until you're fully transitioned.
Is Nextro suitable for nail technicians and lash techs as well as salons?
Yes. Nextro is designed for individual nail technicians, lash technicians, hairdressers, barbers, and beauty businesses — not just salons. It works for solo businesses and small teams.
How much does Nextro cost compared to Fresha?
Nextro is £29/month flat — no commission, no per-booking fees. Compare this to any platform that charges a percentage of bookings to understand the difference on a full working week.
