About us

We build custom booking websites that allow you to have full control over your bookings, reduce reliance on third-party platforms, and improve your profit margins.

The problems most
service businesses experience

  • Your day is packed. Phones ring, texts pile up.
  • Your "Bookings" button dumps people into a form that's confusing on mobile.
  • Clients bounce. No-shows creep up.
  • You chase payments. Staff double-books.
  • You're paying for three different tools that still don't talk to each other.

Our Ethos

The solution: a site that sells the appointment for you.

Client reviewing a full calendar of confirmed bookings
Client reviewing a full calendar of confirmed bookings
Simplicity beats persuasion

Your clients aren't reading—they're trying to finish a task on their phone.

Friction is expensive

Every extra field, page, or surprise fee lowers completion rates.

Own your platform

Your Stripe, your data, your domain. No lock-in.

Clarity wins

Plain-English policies near the button reduce cancellations and support.

Outcomes over aesthetics

Beautiful is required; bookings are the goal.

Questions, answered
with clarity.

We’ve gathered the most common questions our clients ask about working with us. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, our team is just a message away.

What exactly does Fonts & Footers build?

We specialize in high-conversion direct-booking websites for service businesses—salons, wellness studios, clinics, trainers, chauffeurs, pet groomers, equipment/vehicle rentals, and more. Our sites focus on one thing: turning visitors into paid, deposit-secured appointments.

How long does it take to launch?

Typical ranges: Solo (single calendar) 10–21 days, Team (multi-staff) 3–6 weeks, Multi-Location/Rental 6–10 weeks. Timelines include discovery, design, build, integrations, and QA. Rush options are available when content and decisions are ready on day one.

How do your plans differ (Solo vs Team vs Multi-Location vs Rental/Fleet vs Custom)?

Solo: one bookable calendar and simple upsells. Team: multiple staff calendars, role-based access, Google/365 sync. Multi-Location: location routing, hours/policies per site. Rental/Fleet: inventory, blackout dates, holds/returns. Custom: bespoke features and integrations.

How do deposits, cancellations, and no-shows work?

Your site enforces your policy. We can collect non-refundable deposits or full prepayment, set cancellation windows, require card-on-file, charge late/no-show fees, and auto-send SMS/email reminders with links to reschedule inside your policy rules.

Which payment processor do you use?

Stripe is our default for cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and subscription/membership billing. We can also integrate PayPal or regional options on request. You keep the merchant account and receive payouts directly.

What’s included in the monthly fee?

Hosting, security updates, core feature updates, uptime monitoring, minor content tweaks, and support. Optional add-ons include growth experiments (A/B tests), SEO/content retainers, advanced dashboards, and custom feature work.
