In their words

From people using BeNotely

Real quotes from real people.

My barbershop never had a website. It always felt like a big, expensive job, so it just never happened. With BeNotely I built one myself and it was genuinely easy. Now I send everyone to the site, and the bookings come through it, even from people who found us online.

Barbershop owner

Before BeNotely, half my day was phone bookings. Now clients book themselves online, everything sits in one calendar and the reminders go out on their own. Day to day, the salon is just easier to manage.

Questions, answered

Getting started, pricing and the fair print, in plain words.

Does BeNotely cover everything Kitomba does?+

It covers what an appointment business runs on day to day: a calendar built for your trade, online bookings, deposits and no-show protection, a customer list with notes and smart segments, email marketing, a full website, and an AI booking assistant. Kitomba has been at this longer and goes deeper in some back-office areas, so the fairest test is to set BeNotely up during your 30 days and see whether it covers how you actually work.

What does BeNotely cost?+

There's a real free plan for one person: online bookings, your website and the AI assistant, no card required. Paid plans start at $29 AUD a month for one person taking bookings and from $69 for a team, GST included. Every new account starts with 30 days of everything switched on.

Can I bring my customers and bookings across?+

Yes. Import your customer list from your old system's export or a spreadsheet, including when each person last visited. You can import your services, past and upcoming bookings, gift cards, packages and products too. Duplicates are skipped, nobody is sent a message, and your customer list exports whenever you want it. See how switching works

Can I try BeNotely before I decide?+

Yes, and without a card. Every new account starts with 30 days of everything switched on, so you can set it up properly, take real bookings and see how it fits your business before paying anything. There are no lock-in contracts and you can cancel any time.

Does BeNotely charge commission on my bookings?+

No. BeNotely charges no commission on your bookings, on any plan. You pay a flat subscription, or nothing at all on the free plan. Online payments cost Stripe's fee of 1.65% + 30c each on Australian cards, with nothing added by BeNotely, and the rest lands in your own account.

Is BeNotely built for Australia?+

Yes. It's built in Melbourne, and it shows in the details: pricing in Australian dollars with GST included, SMS to Australian mobiles, support from people who know the local market, and your money paid into your own Australian bank account.
