Switching from Fresha

Stop paying per staff. Stop sharing your new clients.

Fresha charges per staff member and takes commission on every new client you earn through their marketplace. ChicChic does neither.

What Fresha costs you

Beyond the monthly fee — the hidden structural costs.

Per-staff pricing

Every new hire on your team adds to your monthly bill. Fresha scales its cost with your headcount — ChicChic doesn't.

New-client marketplace fee

Fresha charges commission on bookings made via their marketplace. You pay to acquire clients you then pay to keep.

US-built - not UK-optimised

Fresha was built for the US market. Payment flows, pricing display and support hours don't always fit UK salons.
