Booking software for UK trades, organised by postcode
From London cleaning companies to Manchester gardeners, ZipScheduler lets customers book by postcode and keeps your van working one area at a time.
How it works here
Your postcodes are the front door.
British service businesses already think in postcodes. A customer knows they are in SW11 or M20 long before they know which day suits them, and the first question any tradesperson asks on the phone is where are you. ZipScheduler makes the postcode the front door of your booking page. Someone enters their postcode, sees only the days and times you genuinely work in their area, and books a slot. You confirm, assign it to whoever covers that patch, and the system handles confirmation emails, tracking links, review requests, and rebooking reminders. Jobs you cannot profitably reach never make it into the diary in the first place.
- Area first
- every postcode you choose
- Local time
- availability in your timezone
- Pounds
- pricing and invoices
Customers enter their postcode before they see a single time slot. Outside your coverage, there is nothing to book.
Made to fit the market
What running a service business in United Kingdom demands
Generic booking tools ignore all of this. ZipScheduler is built around it.
Works with real UK postcodes
Add outward codes like SW11 or full postcodes, from a single borough to hundreds of areas across several counties. Each one carries its own working days, hours, slot lengths, and daily job limits.
Built for congested cities
Crossing London or Birmingham between two jobs can cost more than the jobs are worth once fuel, time, and charges are counted. Grouping bookings by postcode keeps a crew in one area per day rather than driving across town and back.
GMT and BST handled properly
Availability, booking cutoffs, and reminder timings follow UK time including the clock change, so a slot never drifts by an hour in late March or October.
Email that respects UK rules
Review requests, campaigns, and rebooking emails carry a one click unsubscribe and honour opt outs automatically, which is what UK GDPR and PECR expect of marketing to your customers.
Priced for a small firm, not a corporate
The free plan suits a sole trader getting started. PRO costs 24 dollars per month, or 198 dollars per year, and covers 300 postcodes, 100 services, and 10 team members with no per seat charge, plus card payments, deposits and webhooks.
One booking cutoff, calculated correctly wherever the customer is.
Nothing to configure
Set up in United Kingdom without a workaround in sight.
Currency, tax wording, date format and timezone all follow the region you operate in, so your booking page reads the way your customers expect on the very first visit.
Priced in pounds sterling
Services, deposits and invoices all display in pounds sterling, with vat handled the way it is written locally.
Times your customers recognise
Dates and times render as DD/MM/YYYY, 24 hour, and availability is calculated in your own timezone rather than a server clock.
Every postcode supported
Add as many postcodes as you cover, each with its own working days, hours, slot lengths and daily limits.
Set once when you sign up. Every page your customer sees follows it.

No installation, no onboarding call, no card until you decide to upgrade.

Questions from United Kingdom
Does ZipScheduler work with UK postcodes?
Yes. You can add outward codes such as SW11 or BS7, or full postcodes if you want tighter control, and give each area its own schedule. One account can cover several towns or counties.
How much does booking software cost for a UK service business?
There is a free plan with online booking for up to 3 postcodes. PRO is 24 dollars per month, or 198 dollars per year, and includes 300 postcodes, 100 services, 10 team members, email marketing, automated review requests, card payments and deposits, and webhooks. No contract and no per seat fees.
Can I take a deposit before the job?
Yes. Connect your own Stripe account and choose whether customers pay nothing online, the full price, or a percentage as a deposit when they book. The money goes straight to your Stripe account, not through us.
Which UK businesses get the most from this?
Anyone who travels to the customer: domestic and commercial cleaners, window and gutter cleaning rounds, gardeners and landscapers, plumbers and electricians, pest control, mobile valeting, and handyman services.
What happens if someone outside my area tries to book?
They see a polite message instead of a booking form. That is the whole point of ZipScheduler. Your diary only fills with work you can actually reach at a sensible cost.
