Barber & Nail Booking Marketplace Development
Budget: £250 – £750 GBP
Project Description:
I am looking for an experienced WordPress developer to build a modern barber and nail booking marketplace.
This will not be a simple business website. The platform will connect customers with barbers and nail professionals who can create profiles, list services, accept bookings, and receive payments.
The business model is:
* Customers book and pay through the website.
* The platform takes a 10% commission from each transaction.
* 90% of the payment goes automatically to the barber/nail professional.
The website must be professional, mobile-friendly, scalable, and built with future growth in mind.
