How to switch from Booksy

Step-by-step guide to export your data and move to Bella Booking. We offer free data migration and 1-on-1 onboarding with every plan.

Estimated time: 1–3 hours (may require waiting for support response)
  1. 1

    Request your client list from Booksy support

    Contact Booksy support at info.us@booksy.com, or use the in-app "?" Help icon > Support > live chat. Request a CSV export of your client list. Self-service export may be available under Customers > Export, but official documentation directs users to contact support.

  2. 2

    Download any available reports

    Check the Reports section in your Booksy dashboard for any downloadable reports (sales, appointments).

  3. 3

    Send your exports to Bella Booking

    Email your exported files to our onboarding team. We will import your clients, validate the data, and help set up your services and team schedules.

  4. 4

    Update your booking links

    Replace your Booksy booking page links on your website, social media, and Google Business Profile with your new Bella Booking link.

A note on appointment history

We generally recommend not importing old appointment history. Importing past appointments can trigger unintended automated messages (reminders, follow-ups) and cause data inconsistencies. Your clients and services are the essential data for a clean start. If you do want some history carried over, we recommend a tight recent range (e.g. the last 3 months) — our migration team will ensure no notifications are sent accidentally.

Good to know

Booksy's self-service data export capabilities are limited. The official help documentation directs users to contact support for a client list CSV. Appointment history and financial data exports are not well documented publicly.

Can't export your data?

No problem — we can work with anything. Screenshots of your service list, a link to your public booking page, a photo of your price board, or even a typed-up list. Send us whatever you have and we will build your account from it.

Need help with the migration?

Our team will handle the data import, set up your services, and walk you through everything — included free with every plan. We accept data in any format — CSV, Excel, screenshots, photos, links, or anything else you can send.

Common questions about switching

Will I lose my client data?

No. Export your client list from Booksy (we provide step-by-step instructions), then our team will import it into Bella Booking for you. Free data migration is included with every plan.

How long does the switch take?

Most salons are up and running within 1-2 hours. We handle the data import and walk you through setup in a 1-on-1 onboarding session.

Do I need to cancel my Booksy subscription first?

We recommend running both systems in parallel for a few days to ensure a smooth transition. Cancel your Booksy subscription once you're confident everything is working.

Is there a contract or lock-in?

No. Bella Booking is month-to-month with no lock-in contracts. You can cancel anytime.
