Migrate from SimplyBook.me
to SchedulingKit
SimplyBook.me launched in 2009 and is widely used by clinics, language schools, government services, and multi-location service operators thanks to its catalog of toggleable "custom features" covering memberships, gift cards, intake forms, packages, classes, multi-location, ticketing, and HIPAA-grade settings. Most teams who migrate to SchedulingKit do so because the underlying flexibility comes at a cost: total monthly spend depends on which custom features are turned on, the admin interface is dense, the booking flow can feel dated to clients, and onboarding new staff takes more training than a flat-tier product. SchedulingKit ships the most-used features in every plan with a single flat price, a faster modern booking flow on mobile, and clean Stripe, PayPal, and Square payment integrations.
Migrating from SimplyBook.me to SchedulingKit takes about 45-90 minutes. This step-by-step guide covers data export, account setup, and going live. See how the two compare in our SimplyBook.me alternative breakdown.

Migration Questions
SimplyBook has many custom features. Are they available?
Most core features are built-in to SchedulingKit. Some specialized features may require integrations with dedicated tools.
What happens to memberships and gift cards?
SchedulingKit doesn't include a native membership or gift-card module the way SimplyBook does. Most teams either run those programs through Stripe Subscriptions or a dedicated tool like Square, then keep SchedulingKit focused on bookings.
Can I keep my SimplyBook marketplace listing?
Your Booking.page marketplace listing stays with SimplyBook. You'll lose that discovery channel when you cancel, so most businesses replace it with Google Business Profile booking links and a clear CTA on their website pointing at the new SchedulingKit page.
