No-show Fee: A no-show fee is a charge applied when a client misses an appointment without cancelling in time. It compensates the provider for the lost slot and discourages missed bookings.
Why it matters
No-show fees are often set as a fixed amount or a percentage of the service price, disclosed at booking.
How Calper handles it
With Calper, taking payment (or a deposit) at booking time effectively removes the need to chase a no-show fee afterwards.
