Otta's take

Sam Franklin headshot

Sam Franklin

CEO of Otta

Fresha allows consumers to discover, book and pay for beauty and wellness appointments with local businesses via its centralised marketplace, while beauty and wellness businesses and professionals use its all-in-one platform to manage their entire operations.

The company has taken a different approach compared to rivals in the salon management space. Rather than charging monthly, its software is free to use, and charges when a booking is made through the system. Fresha's platform also offers a range of financial products, making it an appealing option for salon operators. This has allowed the company to swiftly build a network of merchants for its marketplace, and it has over 80,000 partner businesses processing over 30 million appointments a month.

Now that Fresha has solved the chicken-and-egg problem of starting a marketplace, it is using its market position to scale quickly. It now has 100,000 partner venues and is working within 120 countries. Between 2021 and 2023, it enjoyed 190% growth in its global bookings.
