# ServeCounter booking software

> Booking software for businesses, from €0 a month + 1%. Try everything for 7 days, no card. Then pay 1% per booking, or pick a plan from €12 per location a month. No VAT is added.

Every page below is also served as markdown to a request that sends `Accept: text/markdown`.

AI assistants book at businesses that use ServeCounter through its booking MCP server, https://api.servecounter.com/mcp (streamable HTTP; Server Card: https://api.servecounter.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json; how to use it: https://servecounter.com/.well-known/agent-skills/book-at-a-business/SKILL.md).

## How results are ordered

The booking MCP server's `find_business` lists businesses nearest first when you give coordinates, then by earliest free time on the day you ask about (`freeOn`), then by name A to Z. A city alone only limits the results to that city. A city alone is ordered by first free time, then name (the free time needs `freeOn`; without it, by name). There is no paid placement: no business can pay to be listed higher. Only businesses whose booking page is live and that allow assistants are listed.

## Who it is for

- [ServeCounter · barber](https://servecounter.com/en-001/barber): Your chairs are ready. Customers book online, you see it in your calendar. Take payment on the same iPad.
- [ServeCounter · hairdresser](https://servecounter.com/en-001/hairdresser): Your price list is ready. Cuts, colour and balayage are in your list from the start, with typical prices you change. Customers book online, and you take payment at the Point of sale.
- [ServeCounter · beauty salon](https://servecounter.com/en-001/beauty-salon): Your treatment list is ready. Facials, waxing, brows, manicures and pedicures are in your list from the start, with typical prices you change. Clients book online, and you take payment at the Point of sale.
- [ServeCounter · nail salon](https://servecounter.com/en-001/nail-salon): Your stations are ready. A fill and a full set take different amounts of your afternoon, and each books its own.
- [ServeCounter · make-up artist](https://servecounter.com/en-001/make-up-artist): Set a deposit on a bridal booking and a length for each look. Customers book the times you offer.
- [ServeCounter · brows and lashes](https://servecounter.com/en-001/brow-and-lash): Book the next refill before the customer leaves. The paid screen offers it beside the receipt.
- [ServeCounter · tattoo and piercing](https://servecounter.com/en-001/tattoo): Your sittings are ready. A sleeve takes six hours across three sittings, and the calendar holds all three.
- [ServeCounter · pet grooming](https://servecounter.com/en-001/pet-grooming): Your table is ready. A spaniel and a poodle need different amounts of your morning, so they book different lengths.
- [ServeCounter · music studio](https://servecounter.com/en-001/music-studio): Your studios are ready. Musicians book the hours they want, and a recording hour costs more than a rehearsal hour.
- [ServeCounter · restaurant](https://servecounter.com/en-001/restaurant): Your tables are ready. Reservations, the floor plan and collection. On one point of sale.
- [ServeCounter · takeaway](https://servecounter.com/en-001/takeaway): Your menu is ready. Your own website, on your own address. We take no percentage.

## Product

- [ServeCounter · appointments](https://servecounter.com/en-001/appointments): A chair, a room and a table are one kind of booking. One calendar holds all three, which is why 11 trades run on one system, not on 11 separate ones.
- [ServeCounter · your own website](https://servecounter.com/en-001/website): The site your customers order on is yours. An address of your own, your own prices and your own opening hours, with the order landing on your point of sale.
- [ServeCounter · point of sale](https://servecounter.com/en-001/point-of-sale): Ring up a sale on whatever screen is nearest. The same point of sale in a browser, on a phone and on a tablet, and everything rung up on one is on the others.
- [ServeCounter · customers](https://servecounter.com/en-001/customers): Each customer's visits, payments and notes. Every business keeps its own record of a customer, with whether they agreed to receive messages from you.
- [ServeCounter · messages](https://servecounter.com/en-001/messages): Confirmations and reminders by email or text. Each message has a link to move or cancel the appointment. Texts are charged per text.
- [ServeCounter · staff and shifts (coming)](https://servecounter.com/en-001/staff): Who is on the floor, what they worked, and what you owe them. Staff are never billed for, so what this counts is hours.
- [ServeCounter · payments](https://servecounter.com/en-001/payments): Customers pay into your own Stripe account. Online and in-person payments go through Stripe to your bank. Our fee is its own line.
- [ServeCounter · reporting](https://servecounter.com/en-001/reporting): What you took, what you owe, and the tax on both. The same figures the day was made of, by day, by person and by location.
