Paper schedule
Works while only one person checks it. Clients don't see the openings, and a cancellation is only reused if someone remembers who asked to be squeezed in.
Online schedule
An online schedule where clients book on their own, with no double booking
You share a link, the client picks a service, professional and time among the slots that actually exist, and the booking goes straight into the schedule, with automatic confirmation and reminders.
- No lock-in
- Cancel anytime
- Unlimited bookings
What it is
What an online schedule is, and how it differs from a regular one
An online schedule is a page where clients see the available times and book on their own, without sending a message or calling. On Horanza, that page is your business's public profile, with its own address like /your-business.
The difference from a regular schedule is that the times shown already respect each service's duration, working hours, breaks, days off and holidays. And the same time with the same professional is never booked by two clients.
-
Your own link
Put it in your Instagram bio, on WhatsApp or wherever your clients already find you.
-
Real availability
Only slots that can actually be served are shown.
-
Automatic notices
Instant confirmation and reminders 24 h and 2 h before, by email and push notification.
How to set it up
Your online schedule ready in four steps
- 1
Add your services
Name, category, duration and price of each service. The duration defines how long each booking takes.
- 2
Set your working hours
Morning and afternoon hours for each weekday, which can be copied to other days, plus days off and holidays.
- 3
Build your profile
Cover, logo, description, address with map, social networks, WhatsApp and a custom address for the link.
- 4
Share the link
From then on, clients book on their own and every booking shows up in the schedule, with an alert in the panel.
You're in control
Booking rules you set
The online schedule follows your business's rules, not the other way around.
- Minimum lead time
- How far ahead a time can still be booked. Avoids getting a booking for five minutes from now.
- Buffer between bookings
- Minutes reserved before and after each appointment, for cleaning, preparation or travel.
- Booking window
- How many days ahead clients can book.
- Slot length
- Times generated from each service's duration or from a fixed interval set by the establishment.
- Bookings per client
- How many future bookings each client can hold and how many on the same day (by default, 2 active and 1 per day). Bookings you make in the panel don't count.
- Client change deadline
- How long before the appointment the client can still confirm, reschedule or cancel on their own.
- Reminders
- Choose which automatic notices are sent: confirmation, 24 h reminder and 2 h reminder.
Beyond the schedule
What happens around each booking
-
WhatsApp and phone requests in the same place
The team records in the panel the bookings that arrive by message or call, searching the client by name or phone, and can send them the confirmation.
-
Someone cancelled? A client from the waitlist takes the slot
When a matching slot opens, the first in line get a link valid for up to 2 hours, and whoever confirms first gets the slot.
-
Clients with a fixed time
Create weekly, biweekly or monthly series. Upcoming dates are generated automatically.
-
Who should have come back
Horanza compares each client with their own visit rhythm and shows who is due, who is at risk and who has gone.
Comparing
Paper, WhatsApp or an online schedule?
Booking over WhatsApp
Clients are already there, but every booking takes a conversation, and the schedule ends up scattered across messages. With Horanza, WhatsApp stays on the profile and in the panel shortcuts.
Horanza online schedule
Clients book on their own among the real openings and get reminders, and every booking already feeds history, tab, commission and reports.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about online scheduling
What is an online schedule?
It's a page where your clients see the available times and book on their own, at any time. On Horanza, it already accounts for each service's duration, working hours, days off and holidays, and sends automatic confirmations and reminders.
How do I create an online schedule for my clients?
Create your account, add services with duration and price, set your working hours and build your business profile. Then just share the link.
Is the Horanza online schedule free?
No. The plans are paid: the Individual plan costs R$ 39.90/month, for those who work alone, and the Custom plan is configured by the number of professionals and establishments. No plan has a lock-in or a booking limit.
Do my clients need to download an app?
No. They book in the browser, on your business profile, signing in with a Google or Facebook account. Turning on notifications is optional.
How does the schedule prevent two clients at the same time?
Times are calculated from each professional's availability and the existing bookings, and the system doesn't let two clients book the same time with the same professional.
Can I choose the address of my link?
Yes. You set a custom address, like /your-business, using letters, numbers and hyphens.
Can I record bookings that come in over WhatsApp or phone?
Yes. The team records the booking in the panel, searching the client by name or phone, and can send them the confirmation.
Does the online schedule send reminders?
Yes. The confirmation goes out as soon as the booking is made, and the reminders 24 h and 2 h before, by email and push notification. You choose which ones are active. Automatic WhatsApp messages are not available yet.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Horanza works in the phone and computer browser and can be installed as an app straight from the browser, without going through an app store.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes, at any time from the panel. Access continues until the end of the period already paid.
