What's included

Built for every detail of follow-up.

01

Smart Sequences

Multi-step WhatsApp flows that adapt: if a client confirms, follow-ups stop. If they go quiet, escalation kicks in automatically.

02

One-Tap Reschedule

Clients reschedule directly inside WhatsApp with a single reply. No phone calls. No email chains. Slot refilled instantly.

03

AI Personalisation

Every message uses the client's name, appointment details and business context. Never sounds like a generic bot.

04

Cancellation Waitlist

Late cancellations trigger your waitlist automatically — filling gaps before you even notice they're empty.

05

Revenue Dashboard

Real-time view of confirmation rates, no-show trends and recovered revenue — updated live as responses arrive.

06

POPIA-ready

Built for South Africa's POPIA: opt-out handling, consent logging, and retention controls — plus GDPR-friendly patterns if you serve international clients.

Customer results

Real businesses. Real numbers.

★★★★★

"We were losing roughly 6 slots per week to no-shows. After a month with ShowUp that's down to one. The dashboard alone is worth the subscription."

"My clients reply within minutes. I ran email reminders for three years — nobody read them. WhatsApp is a completely different channel."

"Setup was genuinely 4 minutes. I connected my diary and left it running. Haven't had to chase a client for a confirmation since."
