Your best channel

Your followers aren’t strangers.

People who chose you
They follow you because they’ve been in, or would like to. To them, a free slot is an opportunity.
Where they already spend their time
Not another text, not another email: a story, between two others, in your name.
No ads, no commission
No platform takes a cut, no campaign to pay for. Your account, your prices.

What goes out on your account

Three stories, three moments.

You choose which ones are active. Each one carries your salon’s name, your logo and a photo of the service.

A beauty salon’s story: “A slot has just opened up!”

When an appointment is cancelled in your calendar.

A slot opens up

The slot goes out as a story, with the time and the team member. The client who sees it books from your profile.

La Station Beauté’s story: “3 slots still free”

When there are still free slots in the day.

There are still slots today

Up to three slots on one story, with the times. Exactly what someone deciding on the day is looking for.

A beauty salon’s “Offer of the day” story: relaxing massage down from €70 to €56, with a photo of the treatment

When you set a price of the day on a service.

You launch an offer

Carden announces the offer, once. Remove it and it stops. Unless you set an offer yourself, no promotion goes out.

You stay in control

An account that stays alive, without you thinking about it.

A steady rhythm
Three stories a day by default, never two in a row, and nothing outside your hours.
Your look
Black, blue or pink, with your logo and a photo of the service.
You stay in control
You choose which stories are active. Holidays, a packed day: you hit pause.

Everything people ask us about Story.

Your best slots go days in advance? See Last Minute

Do I have to change my booking system?+

No. Carden connects to your current calendar, with your consent, and only reads it. You keep your tools, your habits and your history.

How soon after a cancellation does the story go out?+

Usually within ten minutes, during your posting hours. For a 3:30 pm slot cancelled at 2 pm, your followers see it well before the time.

How does the client book?+

The story says “Book from our profile”. They tap your salon’s name, then the booking link on your profile — the one you already have. The booking lands in your calendar, as usual.

Will my followers think the salon is empty?+

No. They see a slot that has just opened up: it happens in every salon, even the busiest. The story disappears after 24 hours and your feed stays as it is.

Does it work with my booking software?+

Tell us which software you use — Fresha, Treatwell, Booksy or another. We’ll work out with you how to connect it, and you pay nothing until it’s done.

How much does it cost, and what if I want to stop?+

€9.90 a month, no commitment. No commission on your services.

Your community is there.Give them your free slots.
