A day in the life — barber shops in Kalgoorlie-Boulder
A typical barbers business in Kalgoorlie-Boulder opens at 9am with three appointments already on the books — confirmed by SMS the night before. By 10am, the first walk-in scans the kiosk QR code and joins the queue; they see a live wait time of "~12 minutes" and decide to grab a coffee the Eastern Goldfields instead of standing around. Their phone buzzes when they're next.
Lunchtime brings the rebookings — a regular taps a one-tap rebook link from the day-of reminder SMS, picks next Tuesday at 2pm, and is done in under 10 seconds. Mid-afternoon, the owner pulls up the live floor view on their tablet, sees that one staff member is overbooked and another has a 45-minute gap, and shuffles two appointments around to balance the load. End of day: Trimsy emails the night-of report — revenue, services performed, commission owed per stylist — and reconciliation is done before walking out the door.
That entire workflow — bookings, walk-ins, payments, staff, reports — runs on a single fixed monthly subscription. No per-booking commission. No SMS markups. No surprise invoice at the end of the month.
Why barber shops in Kalgoorlie-Boulder choose Trimsy
The two biggest booking platforms most barbers businesses in Goldfields consider are Fresha and Vagaro. Fresha is "free" but charges up to 20% commission on new-client bookings via their marketplace — on a busy week, that's hundreds of dollars walking out of your business. Vagaro stacks a monthly subscription on top of per-transaction processing fees. Trimsy is a flat AUD subscription with zero commission and the choice of your own card processor (Stripe Connect or Square Terminal). On $10,000/month revenue versus Fresha, that's roughly $24,000 a year staying in your business.

Frequently asked
How much does Trimsy cost for barber shops in Kalgoorlie-Boulder?+
Trimsy is a fixed monthly subscription starting at $19.99/mo for the Essential plan and $49.99/mo for Growth (multi-location). There's no per-booking commission, no setup fee, and no lock-in contract. Free 14-day trial, no card required.
Can I migrate from Fresha, Timely, or Booksy to Trimsy in Kalgoorlie-Boulder?+
Yes. Most platforms let you export your client list as a CSV; Trimsy's onboarding wizard imports it in one step (name, email, phone, birthday, notes). We can also help with assisted migration during your trial — usually around 30 minutes on a call.
Does Trimsy work with Square in Australia?+
Yes. Trimsy connects to your Square Terminal for in-person card processing using your existing Square account. You pay Square's standard rate, not a marked-up Trimsy fee. You can also use Stripe Connect for online deposits and card-on-file charges.
Do I need to be in Kalgoorlie-Boulder to use Trimsy?+
No. Trimsy works anywhere in Australia. We've called this page out for Kalgoorlie-Boulder businesses because that's often where customers are searching from, but the same product runs the same way wherever your barbers business is based — Goldfields or beyond.
How long does it take to get Trimsy running for my barbers business?+
Most barber shops are taking real bookings within an hour. The onboarding wizard walks through services, opening hours, staff, your branding (logo + colour), and your booking page. No IT support needed — if you can use a smartphone, you can set up Trimsy.
Do my customers in Kalgoorlie-Boulder need to install an app?+
No. Customers book, pay, join the queue, and check their loyalty points from any browser — phone, tablet, or laptop. They do everything from your branded booking page (e.g. yourbusiness.trimsy.au). Nothing to download.
