## What is Okra Desk?

Okra Desk turns your WhatsApp into a front desk. Your clients book appointments, pay a deposit and get reminders — right inside a WhatsApp chat, with no app for them to download and no "reply 1" menus.

Built for businesses that run on appointments — salons, barbers, nail and beauty bars, spas, clinics, therapists, tutors and car detailers.

WHAT IT DOES
• Bookings in WhatsApp — service, time, confirmed, all by tapping
• Deposits that end no-shows — take a deposit, full payment or nothing, via PayFast or Paystack (cards, Instant EFT, Capitec Pay)
• Automatic reminders — 24h and 2h before every appointment
• Reschedule & cancel — clients manage their own bookings; a paid deposit carries over
• Waitlist — fully booked? Clients join a waitlist and get pinged when a slot opens
• Reviews, rebooking & win-backs — grow repeat business automatically
• Referrals & loyalty — clients refer friends and everyone earns a reward
• Tips — clients can add a tip when they pay
• One dashboard — your whole day, revenue and deposits at a glance

YOU'RE IN CONTROL
Set your own services, prices, staff and working hours. Block off lunch or a day off in a tap. Money goes straight to your own payment account — Okra Desk never holds your funds.

Get set up in minutes and start taking bookings on the number your clients already message.
