Why is a Reservation Fee Required?

The reservation fee helps reduce missed appointments and ensures a better booking experience for everyone.

30% Reservation Fee

When an appointment is booked through Trimma, only a reservation fee equivalent to 30% of the total booking value is collected.

Secures Your Slot

This reservation fee helps secure your appointment slot and confirms your commitment to the booking.

Salon Commitment

Once a time slot is reserved, the salon commits its staff, resources, and availability for that appointment.

Opportunity Cost

Reserved slots may prevent the salon from accepting other customers during the same time period, creating an opportunity cost for both the salon and the platform.

Cancellation Policy

Clear processes that keep appointment records accurate and fair for all parties.

Salon-Managed Cancellations

Appointment cancellations can only be processed by the salon owner or salon management.

2

No-Show Handling

If a customer does not attend the scheduled appointment, the salon owner is responsible for marking the appointment as cancelled or recording it as a no-show.

Accurate Records

This process ensures appointment records remain accurate and reflects actual service delivery.

Reservation Fee Purpose

Reservation fees are used to secure booking slots and compensate for the opportunity cost associated with reserved appointment availability.

Important Note

Trimma acts as a booking platform connecting customers and salons. Appointment attendance and service fulfillment are managed directly by the salon.

In many cases, customers and salon owners already have an existing relationship and communicate directly.

If an appointment needs to be rescheduled, the customer and salon owner may arrange a mutually convenient time directly without requiring Trimma's involvement.
