Why people switch

  1. One login for every app

    Sign in once and move between your booking page, your invoices and your QR codes. One account, one bill, one place to change your details.

  2. Flat prices, not per person

    Every app on Basic is £100 a year. Every app on Super is £20 a month. Your team doesn't change the price.

  3. Nothing taken on your own Stripe

    Connect your own Stripe to Bookin, Entry, Payup or OneSite and we add nothing to the card fee. Bookin and Entry take your own SumUp too.

  4. Yours if you stop paying

    Printed QR8 codes keep working, and your events and invoices aren't deleted. You go back to the free limits.

  5. A small UK company

    Super Basic Limited, two founders in Lincoln. Not VAT registered, so the price you see is the price you pay.

What each app replaces

The tool people most often compare each app with, and its cheapest paid plan. Every Super Basic app is £20 a year on Basic, or all eight for £100.

Each app's name links to its own comparison, and each rival to its own page, with every source. Bitly and Sniply price in US dollars.

Every comparison

One page for each tool our apps are compared with: prices side by side, where we differ and how to move across.

Compared with the big all-in-one tools

A Square alternative for more than payments

Square's free plan covers appointments, an online store and invoices for £0 a month. It earns from card fees: 1.75% in person, 1.4% + 25p online and 2.5% on invoices.

When Square suits better: You take most of your money in person on a Square reader, and want your till, bookings and invoices in one place.

A Zoho One alternative for a business of one or a few

Zoho One is US$37 a person a month in its first year, with a licence for every employee, or US$90 a person a month on flexible pricing. It's billed yearly, before VAT, and includes CRM and accounting.

When Zoho One suits better: You need a CRM, accounting, HR and help desk software from one company, and you have the team to set it up.

A Squarespace alternative for the jobs around your website

Squarespace Core is £17 a month billed yearly, or £24 monthly. It's a full website builder with free invoicing, and bookings through Acuity Scheduling, a separate product.

When Squarespace suits better: Your website is the business, with a blog, members or a large shop. Squarespace is built for that.

An honest fit check

Super Basic suits you if

  • You run something small: a salon, a trade, a club, a shop or a side business
  • You use two or three tools today and pay for each one
  • You want flat prices that don't grow with your team

Look elsewhere if

  • You need accounting, payroll or a CRM
  • You take most payments in person on a card reader
  • You need one big tool built around a single job

Each app has a free plan. One app on Basic is £20 a year, and on Super £10 a month. Every app on Basic is £100 a year, and every app on Super is £20 a month.
Can I use just one app?
Yes. Each app works on its own with a free plan, and you can pay for one app without the others.
Do you charge per person?
