Tattoo booking,
without the mess.
Get out of your DMs. Clients book and pay a deposit straight to you. 14-day trial when you go live. Everything included for $15/mo.
Sound familiar?
Booking shouldn’t feel like a second job.
01
Endless DMs
Chasing deposits, re-sending rates, answering the same five questions every day.
02
No-shows
Clients book a date and ghost. You lose the slot, the income, and the day.
03
Tax panic
April arrives. No idea how much you made, how much to save, or where receipts went.
Built with working artists
Real studios. Real bookings.
Aching Hands Tattoo
“Studio Haven makes flash management easier. Customer forms and aftercare run on their own. I get to focus on tattooing instead of chasing paperwork.”
Bethany · Nanaimo, BC
Live on Studio Haven: flash booking, deposits to her account, and aftercare that sends itself.
- Flash sheet to booked slot without the DM chase
- Stripe or Square deposits paid straight to the artist
- Two-way Google Calendar and Apple Calendar sync
- Automated aftercare + healed photo gallery
- Everything included from CA$15 / US$15 a month
How it works
From flash drop to a booked calendar.
Share one link. You show up and tattoo.
01 · Flash
Upload your flash once
Sheets or single pieces, with sizes, placements, and deposits. Clients see what’s open. No more “is this still open?” DMs.
Your booking link
studiohaven.net/s/demo-studio
02 · Share
Drop one link in your bio
Clients open your page, pick a design, and book themselves. You stop copy-pasting rates and availability into DMs.
03 · Deposits
Deposits land in your account
Connect Stripe or Square. When a client books, the deposit goes straight to you. Studio Haven never holds your money.
$80
You keep 100% of the deposit. Card processing still applies.
04 · Calendar
Calendar and text reminders
Sync Google or Apple Calendar. Clients pick open slots. Text reminders go out before the appointment so fewer no-shows.
05 · Finance
Know what to set aside
Deposits, session value, and tax owed in one ledger for GST, HST, VAT, or sales tax. No more guessing in April.
Live numbers. Export when you file.
Built for tattoo workflows
Fits how you already book.
Flash, customs, projects, and quiet seasons. Same Pro toolkit.
Flash sheets, piece by piece
Each design has its own quantity and booking state. Clients pick what is open; sold-out sheets mark themselves.
Direct, approval, or inquiry first
Deposit and confirm, hold for your OK, or take the inquiry before a deposit. Match how you like to work.
Multi-session sleeves
Linked sessions under one project. Deposit on session 1; later sessions skip it and roll into one project value.
Close books, open a waitlist
One switch. New clients see a waitlist instead of your calendar. Existing bookings stay put.
SMS and email campaigns
Reminders before the appointment, plus one message to many past clients when books open or flash drops.
Tax-ready ledger
Deposits, session value, and tax set-aside for GST, HST, VAT, or sales tax. Export when you file.

Questions
Frequently asked.
Pricing, deposits, and how booking fits your shop.
How much does Studio Haven cost?
+
Studio Haven Pro is CA$15/month in Canada, or US$15/month in the United States and Europe. That covers booking, deposits, calendar sync, CRM, finance tools, text reminders, and email campaigns. Draft setup is free; billing starts when you go live, with a 14-day trial.
Where do my deposits go?
+
Straight into your own Stripe or Square account. Studio Haven never holds your money. You connect Stripe or Square in Settings and payouts arrive on that processor's normal schedule.
What fees come out of my payout?
+
On Pro, clients pay your deposit only. Card processing still applies. Example with Stripe: you set a $50 deposit, the client pays $50, Stripe takes its processing fee, and the rest pays out to you. Square rates differ. Your dashboard shows the breakdown.
Can booking be deposit-first, inquiry-only, or approval required?
+
All three. Pick Direct (flash, slot, deposit, confirmed), Approval Required (paid, then tentative until you accept), or Inquiry First (contact, quote, deposit, confirmed).
Can I close my books when I need a break?
+
Yes. Flip one switch. New clients see a waitlist form instead of your calendar. Existing bookings stay safe and your client records stay yours.
Can I track multi-session sleeves and projects?
+
Yes. Sleeves and large pieces are projects with linked sessions. Session 1 takes the deposit; later sessions skip the deposit, link to the parent project, and roll up to one project value in finance.
Do I need to be tech savvy?
+
No. If you can post a flash sheet on Instagram, you can use Studio Haven. The whole setup takes about ten minutes and a real human answers support emails.
Can I use my own website address for booking?
+
Yes. We connect domains you already own. You keep ownership. That puts SEO and branding on your name, not studiohaven.net. Example: inkbyjane.com points at your Studio Haven booking page, with flash, deposits, contact, and merch on your brand. Email officialstudiohaven@gmail.com and we walk you through setup. Your Studio Haven link keeps working as backup.
