TimeTailor is a free WordPress plugin that connects salon websites to a cloud-based booking and management platform covering appointments, payments, POS, staff scheduling, and automated reminders. Its standout feature is a partner program for agencies: salons pay no fixed monthly fee, but online bookings carry a 3.9% transaction fee that is split with the agency partner — 50% under white-label or a tapering 40/30/20% affiliate model. Agencies can manage multiple salon clients from one account, turning one-off builds into recurring revenue streams. Setup involves installing the plugin, connecting a TimeTailor account, importing service menus, and embedding a booking widget via a Gutenberg block. Data lives in the TimeTailor cloud rather than WordPress. Trade-offs include dependency on an external platform and FAQ-style documentation that lacks step-by-step workflow guides.
