Waqtee runs the whole reservation loop for your salon, clinic, restaurant, studio or practice — your own booking page, a marketplace that brings you new customers, and a dashboard that keeps the day straight.
Free to start · No card needed · Set up in minutes
One booking engine. Everywhere your customers already are.
Every surface below reads and writes the same availability. A phone booking, a walk-in and a tap in the app all compete for the same slot — and the database is what refuses the second one.
The Waqtee marketplace
Customers browsing for a salon in Salmiya or a table tonight find you by category, neighbourhood, distance and rating — and book without ever leaving the page.

Our iPhone app for customers: search in plain English or Arabic, book in three taps, get reminders, and rebook a usual in one. Shared booking links open straight into it.

Everything the day actually needs
Not a feature list assembled after the fact — these are the rules the booking engine enforces on every single reservation.
Nothing gets double-booked
- Enforced in the database
- An exclusion constraint refuses two overlapping bookings on the same stylist, table or room. Not a check the app runs — a rule Postgres will not break, under any load.
- The slot is held while they type
- Picking a time claims it for five minutes, so nobody loses their booking to someone who was faster at typing their phone number.
- Availability that understands your week
- Per-staff schedules, time off, business blackouts, buffers, shared capacity pools and minimum booking notice — one engine resolves all of it.
- Edits can't strand a customer
- Archiving a service, removing a stylist or shortening your hours counts the bookings it would orphan and asks first.
Your day fills itself
- Waitlist that actually calls back
- A cancellation matches the front of the queue, holds the freed slot for fifteen minutes and emails them a claim link. Everyone behind keeps honest first-come wording.
- Free today
- Customers browsing for something tonight see exactly which businesses still have a time left — computed from live availability, never a guess.
- Ratings and reviews
- Customers are asked once, after the visit, with one tap. The average rides every listing and feeds how you rank in discovery.
- Know who stopped coming
- Customers segment themselves — new, returning, frequent, inactive — so the eight-visit regular who hasn't been in six months is one filter away.
The business runs itself
- Reminders on every channel
- Confirmation on booking, a reminder a day before and an hour before — by email and on WhatsApp, in the language the customer booked in.
- Your team, their own day
- Staff sign in to their own schedule, set their own hours and time off, and get a daily digest of the day ahead. Revenue stays owner-only.
- Capacity insights
- One honest number — how much of your bookable time actually sold — plus the peak grid, your quietest open hours and your no-show rate.
- Late cancellations and no-shows
- Set a cancellation window and a no-show limit. Repeat no-shows stop booking online; they can always still call.
Built bilingual, not translated
- English and Arabic, everywhere
- Right-to-left layout has been in the core since the first commit — not a stylesheet added later. Your customers pick; your dashboard is your own choice.
- Chains and branches
- One brand, many locations. Customers see one card and get the nearest branch; you switch between them from one login.
- Found by neighbourhood
- Kuwait's ~90 areas as a real filter, not free text — because 'Salmiya' typed four ways is four neighbourhoods to a search.
- Book Now on your own site
- One script tag drops a booking button on any page you already have — and an ICS file lands in every confirmation.
Coming to the App Store
The Waqtee app
Our iPhone app for customers: search in plain English or Arabic, book in three taps, get reminders, and rebook a usual in one. Shared booking links open straight into it.
- Search the way you'd say it — "nails 6pm" or "مطعم ٧ مساء الجمعة" is parsed, then checked against live availability before it shows a single result.
- Reminders, and news the moment it happens — A day before and an hour before, on the device. A booking you confirm or move reaches them on their next glance at the phone.
- Their usual, in one tap — The app notices a habit — same place, same thing, most Thursdays — and offers the next matching time without a search.
