Microsoft Bookings Pricing Guide 2026
How to get Microsoft Bookings and what it costs as part of Microsoft 365
Eligible Microsoft 365 business trials last one month and require a payment card. They convert to paid subscriptions unless recurring billing is turned off before expiry.
Microsoft Bookings's listed plans and prices appear below with their billing terms. Monthly, annual, lifetime and custom-priced offers are different commitments. These are US Microsoft 365 Business prices with Teams, not standalone Bookings fees. Monthly subscriptions cost $8.40 Basic, $16.80 Standard and $26.40 Premium per user; the listed tier prices require yearly payment. Bookings SMS notifications require Teams Premium and supported destinations. Existing eligible subscriptions can include Bookings without an additional scheduling subscription. SchedulingKit pricing.

Our Verdict
Microsoft Bookings is a solid choice if you're already paying for Microsoft 365. But if you're not in the Microsoft ecosystem, you'd be paying for an entire productivity suite just to get scheduling. SchedulingKit offers a free, standalone solution that supports documented calendar providers. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your team size, budget, and which integrations you rely on daily. Testing each platform with a free trial before committing to an annual contract is the most reliable way to evaluate fit.
