What the per-team-member model means for a massage salon

On Booksy's published UK pricing, a salon with 6 team members pays £40 plus 5 × £5, which is £65 a month before VAT, and the bill grows with every therapist you add. Rytuo's price stays the same per location whether you have 3 therapists or 12, and the Salon plan already includes the AI assistant, therapist pay, the time clock, stock and the online voucher shop.

Why choose Rytuo for a massage salon

  • Rooms first. Every booking has a room and a therapist; couples massage is one booking with two therapists in one room; buffers between treatments. Rooms and couples.
  • No commission, no Boost. You bring clients through your own booking link, Instagram and Google, and Rytuo takes no share of any booking.
  • Messages answered for you. The Rytuo Assistant replies 24/7 and books into the real calendar.
  • Therapist pay and time clock built in, with an app for therapists in English, Thai, Indonesian or Polish.
