Comparison
Rexabook vs Treatwell
An honest side-by-side of Treatwell and Rexabook - features, pricing, where each platform wins, and which one is right for your business.
UK and EU salon and beauty marketplace
The short version
Treatwell is one of the longest-running beauty and salon marketplaces in the UK and EU. Like Booksy and Fresha, it pairs a booking app with a marketplace where new clients can find and book your business - but the marketplace intermediation means a meaningful share of your bookings come through the platform, not directly through you.
Where Treatwell is strong
- Established UK and EU customer base with strong brand recognition
- Particularly strong in the beauty and hair salon verticals
- Built-in gift voucher marketplace for partner salons
Where Treatwell falls short
- Takes a commission on bookings sourced through the marketplace
- No AI service import - manual catalogue setup
- Marketplace dependency - your booking volume is partly subject to Treatwell's SEO and ranking
