Lime Booking is a good choice if you need booking for several employees, pre-payments, or reminders via Viber and WhatsApp. Your own website with a booking add-on costs less over time when you mainly need a good website and simple booking for one calendar. With our offer, the first year costs €535.80 and each year after that €286.80. Lime Booking with their website costs about €436 per year.
Lime Booking prices are taken from their price list and terms and conditions, checked on 7 November 2026. Lime Booking lists prices without VAT, so we added 22% Slovenian VAT. Our prices are final because we are not registered for VAT.
In short
- Lime Booking is a booking app. A website is a separate add-on at €14.90 per month without VAT.
- With your own website you pay for the build once, then a monthly subscription. Appointment booking is an add-on.
- In the first year your own website costs more because of the build. From the second year it costs less.
- We can add SMS notifications on request, at €0.08 per SMS sent.
- If you have several employees with separate schedules or need payment in advance, choose Lime Booking or a similar system.
What Lime Booking costs
Lime Booking has four plans. Annual billing is 15% cheaper.
| Plan | Monthly, without VAT | Monthly, with VAT | Annual billing, with VAT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | €14.90 | €18.18 | €15.46 per month |
| Advanced | €29.90 | €36.48 | €31.01 per month |
| Growth | €49.90 | €60.88 | €51.75 per month |
| Pro | €69.90 | €85.28 | €72.49 per month |
What the plans include:
- Basic: online calendar, online booking, client overview, staff schedules, analytics and email notifications. No SMS.
- Advanced: everything in Basic, plus 150 automatic notifications per month, pre-payments, group appointments and combined services.
- Growth: adds a waiting list, customer discounts, your company name in SMS messages, and rooms and equipment.
- Pro: adds SMS in several languages, services with several providers at once, and Meta Pixel integration.
Extra costs under their terms, without VAT:
- an additional user or location €9.90 per month, an additional resource €7.90 per month;
- each notification above the plan's amount €0.06;
- online payments €0.50 plus 2% of the amount;
- a commission for customers you get through their platform: 30% of the first appointment, at least €6 and at most €100 per new customer. Customers already in your database are not charged.
The contract runs for at least one month, and cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period.
What a website from Lime Booking costs
Lime Booking also sells a simple website for €14.90 per month without VAT, which is €18.18 with VAT. It includes a home page, services and price list, gallery, about page and legal notice.
Anything beyond that is paid separately, for example a contact page for €3 per month, customer reviews for €3, and each customized subpage from €5, all without VAT. Booking works through their form.
What your own website with booking costs
For our managed website, the build is a one-time €249, the monthly subscription from €19.90, and appointment booking another €4 per month. That is €23.90 per month in total.
This includes up to 8 pages in your brand, a contact form, basic setup for Google, hosting, a secure connection, backups and maintenance. The contract runs for one year and then renews.
Appointment booking on our websites works like this:
- the customer picks a free slot in your calendar on your website;
- you set the appointment length, the break between appointments, opening hours, days off, and how soon and how far ahead people can book;
- the customer gets an email confirmation with a cancellation link, and you get a notification about the new booking;
- in the site editor you see all bookings and can add an appointment you agreed on by phone;
- on request we add SMS notifications, for example a booking confirmation and a reminder on the day of the appointment. They are not part of the monthly subscription: each SMS sent costs €0.08, with no monthly fee.
A reminder on the day of the appointment looks like this (in Slovenian for Slovenian customers):
Danes ob 15.00 imate termin pri Studiu Lila, Slovenska cesta 1, Ljubljana. Za odpoved nas poklicite na 041 123 456.
One SMS holds up to 160 characters. A message with Slovenian letters such as č, š and ž holds only 70, so a longer message with them counts as two SMS. We write the texts so that each notification is one SMS. With 100 bookings a month, a confirmation and a reminder add up to 200 SMS, which is €16 a month.
What our add-on does not do: separate calendars for several employees, payment in advance, and reminders via Viber or WhatsApp. If you need these, a dedicated system such as Lime Booking is the better choice.
Yearly costs compared
This comparison is for a business with one calendar that needs a website and online booking. Prices include VAT, with monthly billing at Lime Booking.
| Year 1 | Year 2 | Total over 3 years | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lime Booking Basic + their website | €436.32 | €436.32 | €1,308.96 |
| Lime Booking Advanced + their website | €655.92 | €655.92 | €1,967.76 |
| STRUO website + appointment booking | €535.80 | €286.80 | €1,109.40 |
For Lime Booking these prices exclude website add-ons, extra notifications, payments and commissions. For our website they are all the costs for the scope described. If you add SMS notifications, €0.08 is added for each SMS sent.
If you only need booking without a website, Lime Booking Basic is the cheapest option at €218.16 per year with VAT.
When to choose Lime Booking
- You run a salon or studio with several employees and separate schedules.
- You want reminders via Viber or WhatsApp.
- You want a deposit or payment when people book.
- You want new customers to find you in their app, and the commission for new customers works for you.
- A website is not important to you, a profile with booking is enough.
When to choose your own website with booking
- Your website has to sell, not only take appointments: several pages, your own text, photos and design.
- You want people to find you on Google, with your own domain and text you decide on.
- You have one calendar, for example one therapist, one practice or one room for rent.
- You do not want commissions for new customers, and you only pay for the SMS messages you actually send.
- You are looking at costs over several years, not only the first one.
You can also combine them: your own website with a booking button that opens Lime Booking. That gives you a good website for Google and all booking features, but you pay for both.
Frequently asked questions
Is Lime Booking cheaper than your own website?
In the first year it usually is, because there is no build cost. From the second year your own website with booking is cheaper, as long as you do not need features for several employees or payment in advance.
Do Lime Booking prices include VAT?
No. Lime Booking lists prices without VAT, and 22% VAT is added at payment. Our prices are final because we are not registered for VAT.
Can I add booking to an existing website?
With us, appointment booking is an add-on to a website we build and maintain. On an existing website from another provider, you can add a button or form from a booking system such as Lime Booking.
If you are not sure what you need, book a consultation. We will also tell you when an external booking system is a better choice than our add-on.
