Calendar
See the whole day before it starts.
Every appointment, deposit, and payment sits on one calendar, so the next client never catches you off guard.
The calendar is free on every plan, including Starter.
Compare plansWeek and month
Plan the week. Glance at the month.
Switch between a week view for the day to day and a month view for the long look. The week strip shows how busy each day is and flags the days with bookings waiting on you.
- Week and month views
- Appointment counts on every day
- Days with bookings to confirm are flagged
Checkout
Check a client out in one step.
Mark the visit complete and record how they paid: cash, card, or nothing yet. For card, show a QR code or send a link, and the calendar updates the moment they pay.
- Cash, card, or pay later
- Tips recorded with the payment
- Apply a loyalty reward at checkout
Changes

Reschedule, cancel, or mark a missed appointment. Clients are emailed when you cancel, and if they already paid, you are asked about a refund right there.
- Reschedule in place
- Cancellation emails to clients
- Refund prompt when money was taken

Questions
Before you ask.
Is the calendar free?
Yes. The calendar, checkout, and payment recording are on every plan, including Starter.
Can I book outside my business hours?

Do I have to take payments through Lumidara?
No. You can record cash, complete a visit with no payment, or connect Stripe or Square to take cards.
