Take paid bookings with video built in
Updated November 2026
If you send people a scheduling link, then an invoice, then a meeting link, Talkspresso does all three on one page. A client picks an open time on your booking page and pays when they book, by card or with PayPal. Nobody gets a time on your calendar until they have paid. Then they get an email with the video link, and you meet on video in the browser.
Start freeHow booking and payment work together
- Set your hours. Open talkspresso.com/availability. Under Your week, turn each day on and set its hours, check your time zone, then press Save.
- Set your rules on the same page: Free time before each call and Free time after each call, Minimum notice, How far ahead people can book, Days off, and Away for a stretch of dates.
- Connect Google Calendar at talkspresso.com/settings/calendar-sync. Busy times on the calendars you tick are hidden from your page, and new bookings are added to the calendar you pick.
- Set up Talkspresso Payments at talkspresso.com/payments. A priced call can't be booked until you do. On a new page, paid bookings open 24 hours after signup.
- Set a cancellation policy on each paid one-on-one service if you want one. Clients see it at checkout and in their confirmation email.
A service can also ask intake questions. The client answers them when they book, and you see the answers on the booking.
Video is part of the booking
There is no Zoom or Google Meet link to add. Every video booking comes with a video room that you and your client open in the browser. You can share your screen, and you can record a call by starting the recording yourself; recording is on both plans. For one-on-one calls, a service can be in person instead.
What it costs
- Free plan: $0 a month, and Talkspresso takes 10% of each paid booking. Nothing on free calls.
- Pro: $29.95 a month or $299 a year, and 0% of each booking.
- PayPal's processing fee applies on both plans. Google Calendar sync is on both plans.
What your client sees
They open your page, pick a call and a time, and pay to confirm it. They get a receipt and an email with the video link, and reminder emails the day before, an hour before and 15 minutes before. If they cancel before the call starts, they get all their money back unless your late-cancellation policy says otherwise.

Questions people also ask
Does it sync with Google Calendar?
Yes, on both plans. Google Calendar is the only calendar that connects today. Busy times are hidden from your page, and new bookings are added to your calendar.
Can the same time be booked twice?
No. Bookings go on your Google Calendar, so a paid time cannot be booked twice.
What happens if a client cancels?
You get an email and the time opens up again. On a paid one-on-one service the refund follows your late-cancellation policy. With no policy, they get all their money back.
Do my clients need Zoom or an app?
No. They join the call in their web browser from the link in their booking email, with nothing to install.
