Questions South Africans actually ask.
Is there a free online booking system in South Africa?
MintCal is free to try for 14 days with no credit card required, so you can build your page and take real bookings before you pay anything. After the trial, MintCal Pro is R170/month, billed in rand via PayFast. There is no free-forever tier, but there is also no setup fee and no booking commission.
What is the best online booking system for a small business in South Africa?
MintCal is built for South African small businesses and solo professionals: a branded online booking and appointment page, local payments in rand (PayFast, Yoco, Peach Payments and Paystack), Google and Outlook calendar sync, automatic email reminders and 0% booking commission. It works for coaches, consultants, creatives, studios and service businesses.
Can clients book appointments and pay online in rand?
Yes. Clients pick a time on your booking page, enter their details and pay in rand at checkout through your connected provider (PayFast, Yoco, Peach Payments or Paystack). It works as a combined online booking and payment system, so you get booked and paid in one step.
Which local payment providers can I connect?
MintCal integrates with PayFast, Yoco, Peach Payments and Paystack. Connect an eligible account in payment settings, then choose which providers to enable for each paid event. Your provider determines supported payment methods, currencies, fees and settlement terms.
Can I use MintCal as a sole proprietor?
MintCal is built for independent professionals as well as businesses. To accept payments, you’ll need an account with a supported provider. Registration documents and bank-account requirements differ between providers, so check their current onboarding requirements before choosing.
How does the South African price work?
When you visit from South Africa, MintCal applies South African pricing automatically: R170/month, billed in rand via PayFast. It includes the same MintCal Pro features as the international plan. No coupon code or application form is needed.
Can overseas clients book and pay?
Yes, clients can book from abroad and see available times in their timezone. Accepting their payment depends on your connected provider’s support for international cards and currencies. Check the provider’s fees and settlement terms; MintCal adds no booking commission.
Can I really make the page look like my brand?
Yes. Choose from 19 fonts, five column layouts and six industry templates. Arrange 13 profile widgets, set colours and backgrounds, and give each event its own FAQs, video and supporting content. Active paid subscribers can remove the “Powered by MintCal” footer from public booking pages.
Can I keep my website, calendars and client records?
Share your MintCal link or embed booking on your website. Connect Google Calendar, Outlook or both for conflict checking. You can also import Calendly or Acuity client and booking CSVs, preview the data and map event types.
Does MintCal take a cut of my paid bookings?
No. MintCal charges 0% booking commission. Your payment provider’s processing and other applicable fees still apply. The R170 monthly MintCal subscription is separate from the payments your clients make for your services.
How does MintCal handle POPIA and my clients’ data?
MintCal’s privacy policy explains its role as an Operator under POPIA and your role as the Responsible Party for client information collected through your booking pages. It covers data handling, hosting, your rights and the Information Officer contact. You can export your account data or delete your account from Settings. Read the privacy policy and POPIA details ↗
