Built for tattooists, nail techs, counsellors & one-person therapy practices

Keep the slots you'd otherwise lose to no-shows.

Rebound gently prompts your clients to confirm the day before, instantly texts your waitlist the moment a slot opens, and quietly collects deposits from repeat cancellers. Built for one-person practices where every booked hour, and every client relationship, matters.

The cost you're quietly carrying

Every empty hour is income — and time — you can't get back.

A no-show isn't just one missed booking. It's a held slot you couldn't refill, the forty minutes of prep already done, and the small but real wear-and-tear of writing the same chase messages every week. Rough revenue lost per solo, per year:

Solo nail technician
£14k/year
20 clients/week · 10% cancel rate · ~30% of slots can't be refilled in time.
Tattooist
£3-8k/year
200 sessions/year · 5% cancel rate · empty 3-hour blocks that don't refill at all.
Counsellor or therapist
£2.5k/year
25 sessions/week at £60 · 5% cancel rate · plus the cost of unbilled time you spend chasing repeat late-cancellers.
What Rebound does

Three small things that recover most of it.

1

Gentle confirmation

The day before each appointment, Rebound sends a warm one-tap CONFIRM / RESCHEDULE / CANCEL message. The forgetters surface early — while there's still time to refill the slot.

2

Instant waitlist refill

When a cancellation lands, your waitlist is texted within seconds: "Sarah's 2pm just opened — first to reply gets it." First reply wins. You don't lift a finger.

3

Quiet deposit links

Rebound notices the clients who've cancelled late more than twice. Their next booking gets a deposit link, softly. Refundable up to 48 hours before, held if they no-show.

Tomorrow, 24h before — sent automatically
Hi lovely, just a quick one — confirming your full set with me at 2pm tomorrow. Reply YES to confirm, RESCHEDULE if you need to move it, or CANCEL if you can't make it. Looking forward to it x

Confirmed · slot held
How it works

Set it up once. Then forget about it.

Works with whatever booking tool you already use — Fresha, Booksy, Treatwell, Square, Acuity, Cliniko, Power Diary, even bookings that come in via Instagram. No switching, no integrations to wrestle with.

1
Forward your bookings
Forward your booking confirmation emails to your private Rebound address. We pick up the appointment details on your behalf.
2
We send the messages
Confirmations, aftercare, rebook nudges — all written in your voice. You don't write a thing after setup.
3
Slots refill themselves
When a cancellation comes in, your waitlist is texted in seconds. First reply gets the slot. You just see the result in your inbox.
Built for one-person practices

What Rebound does for the people we built it for.

Tattooists
"I lose three full days a year to people not showing up for half-day sessions. By the time they cancel at 9am, my whole day's gone and there's no way to fill it."
Rebound asks for confirmation the day before, and quietly offers a deposit link to clients who've cancelled late more than once. Most of the three-day-loss problem disappears.
Nail technicians
"Cancellations land at 10am for an 11am appointment. There's no time to fill the slot — I'm sat there waiting, watching £45 disappear."
Rebound texts your waitlist within seconds of a cancellation. Roughly half your "unfillable" slots become fillable again.
Counsellors & therapists
"Half my no-shows are clients who genuinely meant to confirm and forgot. The other half are people I should have set a deposit policy for and never got around to."
Forced confirmation surfaces the forgetters at -24h. Pattern detection flags the repeat-cancellers automatically. You get to keep showing up for clients without admin eating your evenings.

Common questions

Things people ask before signing up.

Does it work with my booking system?

Yes — whatever you use. Fresha, Booksy, Treatwell, Square Appointments, Acuity, GoCardless, even bookings you take via Instagram DM. You forward your booking confirmation emails to a unique Rebound address; we read the appointment details and handle the rest. No platform integration needed.

Will my clients notice it's automated?

Not if you've set the voice properly. During setup you give Rebound a few examples of how you normally write to a client (an emoji-heavy nail tech voice reads very differently from a careful therapist's). Messages go out in your voice, signed off as you. The only thing they'll notice is that you're suddenly very on-top-of-it.

What if a client doesn't reply to the confirmation?

Rebound sends a gentle nudge a few hours later: "Last chance to confirm or your slot will be released to the waitlist." If they still don't reply, the slot goes onto your "open" list and your waitlist gets the offer. You decide whether to actually release it or hold for the original client; nothing happens irreversibly without you.

Can I take deposits through it?

On the Pro and Studio tiers, yes. Rebound integrates with Stripe to send deposit links. You set the policy: deposit required for all new clients, or only for clients flagged as repeat cancellers. Deposits are refundable up to 48 hours before and kept if the client no-shows.

What about WhatsApp?

SMS works on day one. WhatsApp delivery is available on Pro and Studio once we verify your business with Meta — it takes about two weeks to get the WhatsApp Business API approval. Most of our customers start with SMS and switch to WhatsApp once they're set up.

Is this appropriate for counsellors and therapists with regulated confidentiality?

Yes, with deliberate boundaries. Rebound only ever sees what's on a booking — client first name, phone, appointment time, and service category. It doesn't touch your clinical notes, session content, or anything from your case-management system (Cliniko, Power Diary, Halaxy, BACPAC, etc). The messaging itself uses neutral, professional language by default for therapy clients, with no references to "session topics" or anything that could be inferred as content. We provide a Data Processing Agreement aligned to BACP, UKCP, and HCPC guidance on request, and we don't transfer data outside the UK.

How private is this? My clients are sensitive.

Client details (name, phone, appointment type) are stored encrypted and never shared with anyone. We don't sell data, don't use it for training, and don't retain message contents beyond the active month. For regulated therapists, a Data Processing Agreement is available on request.
