Booking system for tattoo studios in Chile
Bookza answers the messages, books the consultation and sends the reminder for the session. You keep the machine in your hand.
In Chile, Santiago studios usually mix resident artists with booths rented to independent tattooers, while outside the capital it is mostly one artist running their own space. Bookings happen in Instagram DMs: the client sends the reference, gets a price and transfers a deposit to hold the date. Guest artists who come through for a season open only a handful of days and fill them first come, first served, so how fast you reply decides who gets in.
- The tattooer renting a booth keeps a separate calendar, and the studio only finds out about the clash when two people turn up at once.
- A guest opens three days of bookings and the list gets built by hand in the inbox, with people going quiet by the time their turn comes.
A five-hour session that vanishes without notice is not a missed slot, it is a whole day of that booth gone.
The back-and-forth in DMs to settle size, placement and references drags on for weeks before anyone can book anything.
The touch-up belongs thirty days out, it never gets written down anywhere and the client never comes back.
Built for your industry
Long blocks with each job's real duration
A one-hour flash and a six-hour back piece are not the same booking. You set duration per service and per artist, and the schedule holds the whole block instead of slipping a piercing into the middle of it.
Reminders protect the expensive session
Bookza sends a WhatsApp before the session. With the deposit already arranged on your side, that message is what gets people through the door: up to 60% fewer no-shows on exactly what is hardest to refill.
Consultations book themselves
The AI agent handles WhatsApp, explains what you need to quote a piece and books the design consultation. You walk into that conversation with the idea written down, not with forty unread messages.
Every artist with their own schedule and booth
Residents and guest artists keep their own days, services and prices. Clients choose who tattoos them and the system never shows hours that artist is not in the studio.
Everything you can book
Bookza works nationwide. These are some of the areas with the highest density of service businesses: Santiago, Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Concepción, Antofagasta.
Your clients pay you the way they always have: bank transfer, debit card, credit card, cash.
“I was losing long sessions to people who never said anything, and the booth sat dead all day. Reminders nearly ended that, and I stopped answering DMs mid-tattoo.”
Frequently asked questions
- Does this work if I rent booths to independent tattooers?
- Yes. Every artist keeps their own schedule, services and prices, and you see it all together in the studio calendar. You know which booth is taken on any given day without asking around, and each artist keeps handling their own deposits their own way.
- Can I book multi-hour sessions, or only short appointments?
- You set the real duration of every service, so a six-hour session blocks six hours of that schedule. You can also keep short services, like a touch-up or a piercing, to fill the gaps that are left over.
- Does Bookza take the tattoo deposit?
- No, Bookza does not process your clients' payments: you keep arranging the deposit the way you already do, by transfer or in the studio. What it does is lock the booking in and send the reminder so the session does not fall through.
- How do I handle the touch-up thirty days later?
- The touch-up is just another service, with its own duration and price, and it sits in the client's history next to the original session. Once it is booked, the automatic reminder makes sure they remember it.
- Does Bookza work with Chilean mobile numbers?
- Yes. The agent replies and sends reminders to any Chilean number (+56 9) over WhatsApp, the channel your clients already message you on.
- How is the subscription paid from Chile?
- The subscription is billed in US dollars and paid by card from the dashboard, with no paperwork and no contract. You start with a 7-day free trial and no card required.
