The Calendly alternative for people who get paid per booking

If you want a Calendly alternative, decide what you need beyond a booking link. CalendarPA keeps a free booking page and adds payment at booking on the free plan, session packages on Pro, AdaPA, an assistant that books from email and chat, and team scheduling on Business. Calendly facts below are dated and sourced.

What changes when you switch

  • Payment at booking on the free plan, through Stripe, Square, PayPal or Stax. Calendly needs Standard for payments.
  • Session packages on Pro, which clients buy upfront and spend one booking at a time.
  • AdaPA on every plan. Calendly’s email assistant is in beta on its Plus plans.
  • Two booking types on the free plan, where Calendly’s has one.

Switching without breaking links

  1. Connect your calendars in CalendarPA.
  2. Run the Calendly import to bring over event types, questions and contacts. They arrive as drafts.
  3. Review and switch on each booking type, then replace your Calendly link wherever you share it.
  4. Leave Calendly running until the bookings already made there have happened.
