Start free for 21 days. NZ$109 a month after.
Mahi Time is the New Zealand booking platform built for salons, beauty studios, barbers and service businesses. You get the entire product free for the first 21 days, no credit card, and a single flat fee after that.
Why we don\'t have a free-forever tier
The "free forever" booking apps on the NZ market all monetise somewhere else. Fresha takes 20% on every new marketplace client. Setmore caps you at 4 team members and locks payment processing behind a paid tier. Square Appointments is free but only if you process all your payments through Square at their standard processor rate.
Mahi Time charges one flat NZD fee. No commission. No payment-processing markup. No premium tier locking features behind a paywall. That works because we trust you to evaluate the product properly over a real 21-day trial, then decide.

Frequently asked
Is Mahi Time free forever?
Mahi Time is free for the first 21 days with no credit card. After that the Mahi Time plan is NZ$109 a month for up to 2 team members or resources (chairs, bays, rooms).
Are there any NZ booking systems that are free forever?
Setmore and Booksy offer free tiers but restrict features and aren't NZ-built. For an NZ-based option, Mahi Time's 21-day trial gives you the entire product, then NZ$109/month flat.
What happens at day 21 if I don't subscribe?
Your workspace pauses (clients can't book) but your data is preserved for 90 days. CSV export is always available.
What do I lose by not paying?
Nothing during the trial, you get the full product.
