Get paid before you start.

Paid sends booking deposits and monthly fee statements over WhatsApp, then marks them paid the moment the money lands. Built for South African salons, tutors, coaches and schools.

Free for up to 20 bookings a month. No card needed. Money goes straight to your own PayFast account.

For appointments

A deposit secures the slot.

Share one link. Clients pick a time, pay a deposit by card, instant EFT or Capitec Pay, and get a WhatsApp confirmation. Unpaid holds free themselves after 30 minutes.

For monthly fees

Statements that chase themselves.

Add your members once. On the 1st, every parent gets a statement with a pay link. Polite reminders follow on day 3 and after the due date, and you only hear about the stragglers.

Three steps, then it runs itself.

  1. Step 1

    Connect your PayFast account

    Paste your merchant ID, key and passphrase. Payments land in your account, not ours. No PayFast yet? Mark EFT and cash payments by hand meanwhile.

  2. Step 2

    Share your link or send statements

    Put your booking page in your Instagram bio and WhatsApp status, or load your roster and let the 1st of the month do the rest.

  3. Step 3

    Watch it turn green

    Every payment is matched automatically, a receipt goes out, and Today shows what came in and who still owes you.

One no-show on an acrylic set costs more than four months of Paid.

Good questions.

Does Paid hold my money?

Never. Payments go from your client straight into your own PayFast account, which pays out to your bank. Paid only sends the link, listens for PayFast's confirmation and keeps the records.

How can my clients pay?

Through PayFast: card, instant EFT, Capitec Pay, SnapScan and more, depending on your PayFast settings. You can also record EFT, cash and card-machine payments yourself, or let parents send proof of an EFT.

Are the WhatsApp messages included?

Yes. Confirmations, statements, reminders and receipts are included in every plan. They go from Paid's verified WhatsApp number in your business's name, only to people who agreed to get them.

Can I send specials and news to my clients?

Yes, with the Campaigns add-on: R 99 a month including 50 campaign WhatsApps every month, and emails are free. Only clients who asked for news get them, at hours the law allows, with a way to stop.

What about POPIA?

Paid records consent for every WhatsApp opt-in and for each child's details, lets you export or remove a person's data on request, and deletes what it no longer needs on a set schedule. Read the privacy notice.

Can I cancel?

Any time, from Settings, with no penalty. You keep your plan until the end of the period you paid for, then move to the Free plan.
