Commission calculator: commission per booking or fixed price?
Some booking portals charge a share of every online booking. Work out what that means with your figures per month and per year, and compare it with a fixed monthly price.
Commission or fixed price: what matters
With a commission, you pay a share for every booking. It grows with your success: the more customers book online, the higher the costs. A fixed price stays the same, no matter how many appointments are booked online.
A portal can bring you new customers. The calculator only shows the costs. Whether it pays off for you depends on how many bookings are really new and how many regular customers simply take the convenient route via the portal.
With buchIQ, your customers book directly on your own homepage. There is no commission, neither on new nor on regular customers. Whoever books with you is your customer.

How the calculator works
Bookings per month × revenue per booking × commission in percent, optionally only for the share of bookings by new customers, plus the fixed monthly fee. Times 12 gives the costs per year. Check your contract to see whether the amounts include VAT or not.
