For self-employed tattoo artists first: with the Taddoo App or App Pro you have calendar, clients, requests, deposits, consent and bookkeeping in one app, and your account belongs to you, in every studio and on every guest spot. Taddoo Studio comes in when the artists of a studio use Taddoo and want to link their apps in the studio: day board, shared calendar, requests and consent forms in one place.

Taddoo App costs US$14 per month billed yearly (US$168 per year) or US$16 monthly, the first 7 days free, cancel anytime. If you take payments through Taddoo, a small fee per payment applies: on the deposit in the booking link your client covers it as a surcharge by default, on Tap to Pay you do by default, both switchable. Taddoo App Pro costs US$25 per month billed yearly (US$300 per year) or US$35 monthly, has the same features plus texts to clients and no Taddoo fees on payments. Paying yearly is up to 28% cheaper. All numbers and the fees for your country are on the pricing page.

Yes. Taddoo Studio is Taddoo's studio and team management, for US$30 per month billed yearly (or US$40 monthly) for the studio, 7 days free, with no cap on artists: a shared calendar of all artists, a day board with stations and floor plan, residents and guest artists, a front desk that enters walk-ins, appointments and consultations for artists who allow it, requests from the studio page and website routed to the right artist, every consent form signed in the studio in one place with a studio template and QR code, and the studio deal and revenue per artist as far as shared. It is artist first: every artist uses and pays for their own app, joins the studio account, decides what the studio sees and keeps everything when they move on. You create the studio account at taddoo.com/studio, then download the app and log in with it.

Your client holds their card or phone to your iPhone or Android phone, done. No card reader, no extra subscription. Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay and Google Pay are accepted. The payment lands right on the appointment and in your bookkeeping. All it needs is a connected Stripe account.

Only if you want to take payments through Taddoo: the deposit in the booking link and Tap to Pay run through Stripe, connected in a few minutes. Calendar, clients, receipts, consent and reminders work without it. You then note the deposit yourself as before, Taddoo keeps it on the appointment.

Through the booking link the appointment is only confirmed once the deposit is paid; until then the slot is reserved for 15 minutes and released again without payment. If you enter an appointment yourself as reserved and send a deposit link, the link expires after the time you choose (48 hours by default, up to 7 days). If no payment comes in by then, Taddoo cancels the reserved appointment automatically, the slot is free again, and you get a push.

Yes, with App Pro. The appointment reminder then goes to your clients by text as well as by email. Confirmation, reschedule notice, aftercare and your own messages go by email only. Only clients who agree get texts: in the US and Canada anyone can reply STOP, in other countries you withdraw the consent on the client. There are never marketing texts. Every month 100 texts in the US and Canada and 20 to other countries are included. For more, there are SMS packs: 100 texts for 15 CHF, and they never expire. If no texts are left, the reminder goes by email only. What's up, Europe? WhatsApp reminders are coming soon, included in App Pro.

Yes: your Taddoo appointments appear in Google or Apple through a calendar subscription, including private events you enter in Taddoo, and every change. The other way round, Taddoo pulls in up to three private calendars through an iCal address as busy times, so nobody books over your private plans. You book and edit in Taddoo, you see it everywhere.

Yes, usually in a quarter of an hour. Taddoo takes over the next three months from your phone calendar (on iPhone including Google, Outlook and Exchange) and recognises client names in the titles, imports appointments with contacts from Calendly and existing clients from a CSV file. Private calendars keep blocking your time through an iCal address.

Yes. Deposits, gift vouchers and the rest after the session run through Stripe, where your clients pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Klarna, for example in three interest-free instalments. You get the full amount right away and Klarna carries the risk. At checkout you show the payment link as a QR code or send it on WhatsApp. Klarna is available with Stripe accounts in Switzerland, the EU, the UK, the US, Canada and Australia.

Yes, as an add-on. Taddoo stays the app for tattoo artists; if you pierce or set tooth gems on the side, you switch the treatment on under Settings and get its own consent form, its own booking button on your artist page with deposit or prepayment, and its own aftercare notes. Appointments work like tattoo appointments, just with fewer fields. If you only tattoo, none of it shows.

Yes: iPhone, iPad and Android from the stores, on the Mac via the App Store. The app works offline and syncs by itself as soon as you are back online. One account, the same data on every device.
