Tattoo appointment scheduling software
Bookedin’s tattoo appointment scheduling software helps artists and studios transition from the notebook-and-inbox routine into a structured, automated booking process. Imagine waking up to a full calendar of paid appointments without having to sift through notes to track your bookings or answer late night messages.
Our system gives your clients a clear path to book their next tattoo: They select the service, choose their artist, pay the deposit (if needed), and receive instant confirmation. You and your team can simply pull up the schedule, check the details, and focus on your work.
What’s more, Bookedin lets you customize your booking page look, include your own service descriptions, upload reference images, and adjust deposit amounts.
And when your shop closes at night, your booking page keeps working, so clients can secure a slot whenever they’re ready. Every booked appointment, deposit, and client message is logged in the same system so you always know who’s coming in and what they’re coming in for.

Owner, Lotus Pod Body Art
“It’s simple to customise my booking page for tattoos and piercings. Clients know exactly where to book and how to pay, so I can simply direct them to the page and keep the conversation about art.”
Co‑founder, Ink Embassy
“Online scheduling is a pillar of our business. We couldn’t run our busy shop without it. Every artist can manage their own calendar and our manager doesn’t need to be a phone operator anymore. It’s a no‑brainer.”
John Hintz – Warrior Tattoo Studio
Booking through Bookedin changed how our shop works. The booking page, reminders and deposit
management made us look professional to clients and gave us time to concentrate on tattoos
instead of scheduling.
What is tattoo appointment scheduling software?
A tattoo appointment scheduling software is a digital tool that lets tattoo artists and tattoo shops accept online bookings, manage calendars, collect deposits, and automate client reminders from one platform. It provides a publicly accessible booking page where tattoo clients choose services, select their preferred artist, and pick an available date and time.
Whether you’re a busy shop manager or an artist who books their own clients, managing appointments can be a serious time-vampire. Fortunately, keeping things organized has never been easier with Bookedin’s premium tattoo studio software.
For solo artists, this means never losing bookings in the flood of DMs and remembering exactly who requested what piece. For multi-artist studios, it means keeping everything and everyone organized, even during flash days and peak seasons.
Our software offers a streamlined solution that will help you manage the constant stress of incoming appointment requests and give your clients a five-star experience. Whether your books are closed or you’re open for new projects, Bookedin can help give you your time back.

How our online tattoo booking software works
A well‑designed tattoo booking system guides every client through the same simple sequence: Finding your booking link, choosing the right service and artist, securing their time slot with a deposit, and receiving automated reminders. By following this path, you eliminate the endless back‑and‑forth messages that slow your day and ensure clients know exactly what to do next.
Find your link
Share your Bookedin booking page across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Google, and your website. Clients land on a clean page that lists your services and prices.
Pick service & artist
Clients browse categories (like flash, custom pieces, blackwork or piercings), read descriptions, and choose their preferred artist (if any). Only available time slots appear thanks to live calendar sync that prevent possible schedule conflicts.
Pay the deposit
A deposit holds the time slot and ensures only committed clients get to reserve a slot. Clients pay securely via card or wallet, and the deposit record appears in your calendar. Different services can have different deposit amounts
Get reminders & aftercare
Bookedin automatically sends appointment confirmations and reminders via text and/or email. If clients reschedule or cancels, the calendar updates instantly so everyone stays on the same page without manual follow‑ups.

Visit booking pageA smoother workflow for your tattoo studio
When your studio is busy, even small inefficiencies amplify into lost time and frustrated artists. Bookedin removes those friction points by automating the repetitive tasks that can break your focus. The software synchronizes appointments across devices, collects deposits upfront, and handles reschedules without you lifting a finger.
You don’t have to stop what you’re doing to confirm times, explain prices, or move appointments around because the system handles these routine steps.
So, not only does Bookedin boost your and your team’s productivity but it also gives your clients a more professional impression of your shop.
Consider the operational benefits: automatic reminders reduce no-shows, integrated payments improve cash flow, and the client database keeps track of preferred styles and past work. During conventions or guest spots, you can temporarily adjust availability and manage deposits separately. In busy months, you can open a wait list for coveted time slots and contact those clients instantly when a cancellation occurs. Every tool inside Bookedin is designed to reduce errors and handle admin work for you. Your shop runs smoother, artists are happier, and clients appreciate the clear, consistent process.
