GroomSlot vs Fluffday
Both are built in the UK for dog groomers. GroomSlot is one plan at £24 a month with no fee on your card payments, works for mobile groomers as well as salons, and is available in Ireland.
Why groomers are switching
No fee on your card payments
Deposits and balances go through your own Stripe, SumUp, Square or Lopay account at that provider's rate. GroomSlot adds nothing on top.
Built for mobile groomers too
Service areas, travel fees, travel-aware booking slots and a route planner for the day. Salons get the same diary.

What the two have in common
Both are UK-built for dog groomers rather than general salon software. Both offer online booking, WhatsApp and SMS reminders, deposits with a card on file, a waitlist for cancellations, loyalty rewards, memberships and review requests.
Where Fluffday is different
Fluffday sells three plans. Solo is £39 a month for one groomer, Pro is £119 for up to six, and Growth is £199 with extra salons at £119 each. Team features such as rotas, clocking in and holiday requests are on Pro and up. Card payments go through SumUp only, and Fluffday charges 1% of every card payment on top of SumUp's fee. Its Autopilot, which proposes moving bookings to close gaps, and its styling body map are features GroomSlot does not have.
