Bookjor vs Bookwhen at a glance
Compare what a booking means
Plan limits
Bookwhen counts booking transactions, even when one transaction contains several attendees. Its plans also limit team members and booking pages.
Paid bookings make the difference
Free plans
Bookjor Free supports Stripe payments within its booking limit. Bookwhen Free is for free events; accepting payments needs Lite or above.
Compare subscription limits and payment fees
Pricing model
Bookwhen publishes regional plan prices with monthly and annual billing options. Confirm your billing currency, current local price and applicable tax; Enterprise is quoted separately. Payment processing is additional.
- Regional pricing and plan limits · Checked
- Bookjor plans and limits · Checked
- Bookjor Free includes 25 bookings/month, two staff accounts and one location. Pro is USD 20/month; Deluxe is USD 50/month, with Custom available for larger needs.
- Bookwhen Free allows 50 booking transactions/month, one team member and one booking page, for free events only.
- Lite, Standard and Plus allow 300, 800 and 1,800 monthly transactions respectively; passes, memberships, waitlists and attendance tracking start on Standard.
- Compare local payment fees too. New Bookwhen × Stripe integrations use Bookwhen-set processing rates; legacy Stripe pricing differs. Confirm Hong Kong terms rather than applying UK fees.
Compare the cost of your actual setup
Use the same booking volume, staff, locations and required features for both products. A headline subscription is not a total-cost quote.
First-year cost = 12 × monthly software and required add-ons + one-time setup + payment and usage charges + applicable tax.
Bookwhen
Confirm regional currency, tax and payment integration rates; monthly booking allowances count transactions rather than attendees.
Match the plan to your work
List monthly bookings, calendars, staff and locations first. Check the plan that covers every required workflow; unlimited classes does not necessarily mean unlimited booking transactions.
Price the extras separately
Request payment processing, platform fees, branded apps, messages, onboarding and migration as separate lines. Confirm currency, taxes, regional availability and any minimum term.
Compare the same billing commitment
Keep monthly billing separate from annual-billing equivalents and introductory offers. Ask what renews, what happens when limits are exceeded, and how cancellation and data export work.
Feature comparison
Compare the plan, workflow and regional payment setup you will actually use. A qualification means the details need checking, not that a feature is unavailable. Bookjor Free includes 25 bookings/month, two staff accounts and one location. Reports, the Client App and multiple locations require a paid plan; the Admin App and Stripe payments are included on Free. Stripe processing fees are separate. Bookjor does not support auto-renewing memberships. Credit packages and passes are prepaid purchases.

Plan a bounded migration
Paid-plan assistance covers customer records and package balances in Bookjor’s required CSV format. This is not a promise to transfer your entire account or recreate the old system.

Confirm what you can export
Check your existing provider’s export options, permissions, fees and account-access deadline. Export only records you are entitled to use; marketplace customers may have different marketing permissions.
Agree the mapping before moving
Confirm the required fields, package types, remaining balances and expiry dates with Bookjor. Do not assume booking history, stored cards, recurring payment agreements, waivers or automation rules transfer.
Test, reconcile, then switch
Ask for a small sample check, compare customer counts and balances, and agree a cutover date. Keep an authorized archive and handle future bookings and payment agreements separately before closing the old account.
Common questions about Bookjor vs Bookwhen
FAQ
Is Bookjor a Bookwhen alternative?
It can be, particularly when dedicated private-service and rental workflows matter. Test your actual booking rules, packages and payment process before migrating.
When may Bookwhen fit better?
Bookwhen is worth comparing for flexible ticket types, multi-session courses and group registrations. Standard and above also include passes and recurring memberships.
What should a Hong Kong studio check?
Confirm the subscription currency and regional payment rates. Bookwhen supports displaying HKD ticket prices, but that does not establish the currency of your software bill or which local payment methods are enabled.
Could I migrate from Bookwhen to Bookjor?
Yes. On paid plans, Bookjor can help import customer records and package balances in the required CSV format. You can also ask for help with basic setup when starting free.
