“We tried using Acuity, Bookeo, FareHarbor, Toast, and Peek Pro over the past 5 years and while all had great features, each was lacking something important. We got fed up with the limitations and set out to build a booking platform that had the things we loved, while leaving behind the things we didn’t.”
Seven things we made sure ArtistryHost gets right — because we were tired of working around the platforms that didn’t.
If you take online bookings and in-person transactions, ArtistryHost keeps all of your financial activity in one place. Online reservations, in-person sales, and gift card sales all settle through your own Square account — one deposit, one report, one financial view. No reconciling two systems at month-end.
Robust booking-flow analytics, including funnel drop-off analysis, so you can see exactly how well your website traffic converts — and fix the step that's quietly costing you bookings. Built-in connection to Google and Meta Pixel tracking means you can finally tell whether your ad spend actually works.
We got tired of booking platforms charging a percentage of revenue. We saw it adds friction — discouraging customers from completing the booking — and those fees add up. ArtistryHost is a flat-fee model. And if you're OK with a booking fee, ArtistryHost lets you still charge one — and you keep 100% of it.
We got tired of the limitations in the displays offered by Bookeo, Acuity, and FareHarbor — so we built the dashboard you actually want to see. At a glance: who's arriving, who's paid, party sizes, and notes. The view your host stand actually needs on a busy day. And no-show or late-cancellation fees are never charged automatically — they're always a deliberate, one-tap decision you make right from this screen.
Sometimes you host large groups that pay ahead of time. ArtistryHost lets you send invoices and monitor payments right from the booking platform — all while leveraging Square's payments ecosystem. No separate invoicing tool, no chasing payments across apps.
Two campaigns most booking platforms don't have. Guests who start booking but don't finish get a gentle three-touch email sequence — one hour, one day, three days later — inviting them back. And if a late-cancellation or no-show fee card declines, the guest gets a 'book again within 24 hours and we'll waive the fee' email that turns a bad moment into a returned party. Both run under your branding, with copy you can edit, and both are off until you turn them on.
Every confirmation includes a booking-management link where guests can cancel, reschedule, or change their party size on their own — within the policy window you set. The windows are enforced server-side, so nobody can reschedule their way out of a late-cancellation fee. Fewer phone calls for you, more control for your guests.
ArtistryHost is designed by operators, for operators. Every decision traces back to these three goals.
The primary objective: turn more of your website traffic into completed bookings, with a fast, low-friction flow and no surcharge scaring guests off at checkout.
A flat-fee model on your own Square merchant account. The money you earn stays yours — not skimmed a few percent at a time.
The analytics and dashboards that help you run your business more strategically — not just record what already happened.
We run our own venues on ArtistryHost every day, and it’s live for you now. The first ten operators lock the founding rate: 90 days free, then $50/mo locked for life. Once the ten spots are gone, so is the rate. No contract, no percentage of your revenue.
