Payments

Get paid the moment they book

Connect your own Stripe account and put a price on any meeting type. Clients pay as they book, and the slot is confirmed only once the payment clears.

Stop chasing invoices and absorbing no-shows

Booking and billing usually live in two different places. You schedule the session, send an invoice afterwards and hope it gets paid. When someone fails to turn up for a slot they never paid for, that is revenue you lose. Collecting payment at the point of booking fixes both: it filters out non-committal enquiries and guarantees the session is paid for before it ever lands on your calendar.

Tymeslot connects your own Stripe account directly. Funds settle straight to your Stripe balance, and we never hold or touch the money. Set the price per meeting type: the full fee for a session, or a smaller booking fee that keeps no-shows away.

Why Tymeslot

Your money, your Stripe account

Payments settle straight into your own Stripe balance, and we never hold your funds. On the managed cloud, payments come with the Pro plan plus a flat 0.5% per payment; self-host and that fee disappears.

Funds settle to you directly

Payments land in your own Stripe balance and pay out to your bank on the schedule you set in Stripe. We never hold the money.

A flat 0.5% on the cloud

On the managed cloud, taking payments is part of the Pro plan. Each payment then carries a 0.5% platform fee on top of Stripe's standard processing fees, and nothing else.

Zero platform fee self-hosted

Run Tymeslot on your own server and there is no platform fee. You pay only Stripe's standard fees.

Free reschedules

Moving a booking never charges the guest twice, so clients can change a paid session without a second thought.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Tymeslot handle payments?
You connect your own Stripe account, then enable payment on any meeting type. Guests pay through Stripe Checkout at the moment they book, and the slot is confirmed once the payment clears. Funds settle straight to your Stripe balance.
Does Tymeslot take a cut of my payments?
On the managed cloud, accepting payments is part of the Pro plan, and Tymeslot adds a flat 0.5% platform fee to each payment on top of Stripe's standard processing fees. Because you connect your own Stripe account, payments settle directly to your balance and we never hold the money. Self-host Tymeslot and the platform fee is zero; you pay only Stripe's fees.
Can I take a deposit instead of the full amount?
Yes: set the meeting type's price to the deposit amount. Each meeting type has one price, charged at booking, so a small amount works well as a deposit for discovery calls and the full fee suits paid sessions. Tymeslot does not collect a remaining balance later; you settle that with the client directly.
Which payment methods and currencies are supported?
Stripe Checkout accepts cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. You can charge in 13 currencies including EUR, USD, GBP, and CHF, set per host.
What happens with refunds and cancellations?
You can issue full or partial refunds directly from the dashboard, and cancel a paid booking with a refund in a single step. Rescheduling an existing paid booking never triggers a second charge.
Does payment work when I self-host?
Yes. On your own instance you act as your own Stripe platform, so you set up Stripe once and then collect payments end to end, with no platform fee. As with everything self-hosted, the data stays on your server.

Building an open-source Calendly alternative in Phoenix LiveView

A booking page looks like a form over a calendar. The hard part is that every calendar system disagrees about which events make you busy, and once my code answered that question in two places, the two answers disagreed too.
