Squire publishes four prices: $30 a month for a single barber, $50 a month for a one-shop team, $150 a month per shop, and $250 a month per shop for multi-location brands. Those are the numbers on getsquire.com/pricing, checked on November 1, 2026, in US dollars. Two things that decide your real bill are not on that page: what card processing costs, and whether the price goes up as you add barbers. This post lays out what is published, what each tier adds, and what to ask on the demo call.
How much does Squire cost per month?
| Plan | Price (USD, checked Nov 1, 2026) | Squire says it is for | What it adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Independent | $30 / month | Individual barbers | Online booking and no-show protection, scheduling, automated email and SMS reminders, Engage (Squire’s AI messaging), the Flex branded app, reporting |
| Pro | $50 / month | Single-location shops | Multiple barber accounts, booking from Google and Instagram, shop management and waitlist, an onboarding specialist, client transfer, promo codes |
| Executive | $150 / month per shop | High-growth shops | Everything in Pro plus unlimited email and SMS marketing, Google Reviews Booster, commission and rent collection |
| Titan | $250 / month per shop | Established multi-location brands | Everything in Executive plus multi-location support, a branded app, loyalty, gift cards, inventory and purchase orders, client chat |
Independent comes with a 14-day free trial you can start yourself. Pro, Executive and Titan send you to a demo request instead, so for anything above the solo tier you are talking to a salesperson before you see a final number.
Two add-ons are priced on the page, both from the Executive tier: branded landing pages at $25 a month and Operator, Squire’s AI phone answering, at $99 a month. Squire also supports Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android, and says no extra hardware is needed for it.
What the pricing page does not say
Four gaps, and they are the four things that move the bill:
Card processing. No rate is published anywhere on the pricing page. Squire takes payments in-app, so there is a processing cost, and for a shop doing $20,000 a month through the system a difference of half a percent is $100 a month. Ask for the exact percentage and the per-transaction amount, in writing.
Per-barber charges. Squire’s own FAQ asks “Does SQUIRE charge extra for each barber I add?” — which tells you it comes up often. The answer sits in a collapsed panel that did not load when we checked the page, so we cannot quote it. Pro is described as including “multiple barber accounts” without a seat price next to it, while Executive and Titan are priced “per shop”. If you run four or six chairs, that is the single biggest unknown in your quote.
Currency and market. The page shows US dollars only. If you are cutting in Dublin, Manchester, Toronto, Sydney or Cape Town, ask what you will actually be billed and in what currency before you plan around $50.
Billing term and contract. There is no monthly-versus-yearly toggle and no contract length on the page. Whether $150 is a rolling monthly price or an annual commitment is a demo-call question.
A three-chair shop, roughly
Say you and two barbers work a shop and you want online booking, reminders, waitlist and a bit of marketing. Pro at $50 a month covers the booking side if the multiple barber accounts are genuinely included; move to Executive for the marketing and rent collection and you are at $150 a month, $1,800 a year before processing. Add Operator so the phone gets answered and it is $249 a month, close to $3,000 a year. None of that includes card fees, because those are not published.
That is not an unreasonable price for a shop turning over six figures. It is a lot for a two-chair shop that mainly needs a booking link and reminders.
What Squire is good at
Squire is built for barbershops only, and it shows. Commission and rent collection matter in a shop where chairs are rented rather than staffed, and most general booking tools do not handle it. Inventory, gift cards and multi-location support on Titan are the tools a brand with four locations actually uses, and the onboarding specialist on Pro is real: someone moves your client list for you. If you are running a growing shop in the US and you want one system for the book, the till and the staff money, Squire is a serious answer.
It suits you less if you are one or two chairs, if you want a published price you can budget against without a sales call, or if you are outside the US and would rather not be quoted in a currency you do not take.
How bbook compares
bbook is a booking app for barbers that you run under your own name. Clients book from your own link with no account to create and no marketplace in between, and there is no commission on bookings or on new clients. The free plan covers one user and 30 appointments a month, so a solo barber can start without a card, and paid plans are priced per user a month, billed yearly or monthly, with current prices shown in your own currency on the pricing page. Card payments run through Stripe, Mollie or SumUp at their own published rates, with nothing added on top by bbook.
Phone answering is the other difference worth naming. Squire sells Operator as a $99 a month add-on from the $150 tier; bbook’s AI receptionist answers missed calls and books the appointment on the Premium plan, priced by minutes. If you are weighing a few shop systems rather than just Squire, the best booking apps for barbers compares them side by side, and Booksy pricing and fees covers the other platform most barbers shortlist.
FAQ
How much does Squire cost per month?
$30 a month for a single barber on Independent, $50 for a single-location shop on Pro, $150 per shop on Executive and $250 per shop on Titan, in US dollars as published on November 1, 2026. Card processing is extra and is not published.
Does Squire charge extra for each barber I add?
Squire’s pricing page raises the question but the answer is not visible on the page, so get it in writing before you sign. Pro lists “multiple barber accounts” with no seat price, and the two top plans are quoted per shop rather than per barber.
Is there a free version of Squire?
No free plan is published. Independent has a 14-day free trial you can start without a demo; the three higher plans go through a demo request. For comparison, bbook has a free plan with one user and 30 appointments a month, with no time limit.
