Your trade, your words
Eight trades to choose from. One click, and every screen speaks yours.
On first launch, TOP CALENDAR asks what you take bookings for. That choice doesn't change the engine: it changes the words, on every screen and in every email, and you can change it whenever you like.

The same engine, other trades
A practice, a rental shop, a restaurant.
Three booking pages, three trades, three ways of talking. Behind them, the same engine: it knows what you offer, how many places are left at each time, and what's already taken.

The difference, in one question
“How many places are left on Saturday at 10am?”
A calendar can't answer that: it shows boxes, and you do the counting. A booking engine can — because it knows what you offer, how many, and what's already taken.
A calendar
It shows boxes.
You count what's left by hand.
Two customers can take the last place.
You're the one keeping count.
TOP CALENDAR
It knows what's left.
Places left show at every time slot, for your customers and for you.
The check happens in the database, under a lock: a place is only ever sold once.
The calendar keeps up on its own.
What you get
For your customers, and for you.
The whole day on a single screen.
Today: what needs your attention, the day as it unfolds, and the day in three numbers.
The month at a glance, a day in one click.
In Planning, “+” on a day: a name and a number of places, that's it.
A phone call, booked in seconds.
Who, how many, what, when, typed in one go; places left appear as you type.
Your customers manage their own booking.
No account, no password: a private link in every email to add it to their calendar, change the date or the number, or write to you.
A place is only ever sold once.
The check happens in the database, under a lock — never in the browser. Two customers asking for the last place at the same instant get one booking between them.
In your WordPress
Three screens, and your day is under control.
The two editions
Free for good, or €179 excl. VAT a year.
The Free edition isn't a cut-down demo: it takes your bookings with no time limit. The dividing line fits in one sentence: if you take payment at booking, or keep an inventory, it's the Plus edition.
Free
free€0 forever
- Bookings without online payment, as many as you like: your trade and its words, seasons and exceptions, schedules.
- Customer records and essential emails.
- As many registrants as you have places.
- Bookings of an hour, a day or several nights, and a waiting list when you are full.

- Unlimited inventory (places, equipment or named units), with history, maintenance and taking items out of service for repair.

- The automatic email reminder before each booking.

In all honesty
What TOP CALENDAR doesn't do.
What it does, and does well
- It takes bookings, counts places, and refuses what can't be served.
- It speaks your trade, on every screen and in every email.
- It takes payment at booking, through Stripe or your WooCommerce shop (Plus edition).
What it doesn't do
- It doesn't handle your team's payroll.
- It doesn't do your accounts or manage your merchandise stock.
- It doesn't replace a till.
What if I stop Plus?
Nothing locks, nothing is deleted.
What stops
The Plus edition's features.
Payment at booking, inventory management, reports and the automatic reminder stop being available.
What stays
Your site, your bookings, your customers.
You go back to the Free edition, which stays usable for life. Bookings already taken stay, and so do your customers and your inventory.
Questions
Before you get started.
My trade isn't on the list. Is this for me?
Choose “Other / I will see”: neutral words — booking, place, customer — that you can change whenever you like. The engine is the same for every trade: what can be booked, how many places, what's already taken.
Does changing my trade change my bookings?
No. Choosing a trade only changes the words, on your screens and in your emails. Your bookings, your customers and your schedules stay exactly as they are.
What happens at the end of the 14-day trial?
Nothing locks and nothing is deleted. You go back to the Free edition, which stays usable for life. Bookings already taken stay, your customers stay, your inventory stays — only the Plus edition's features stop being available.
Can I get paid at booking?
Yes, with the Plus edition: your customers pay by card with Stripe, or through your WooCommerce shop. You ask for a deposit or the full amount, and the invoice can go out with the receipt. Without online payment, your places can still be booked and you collect payment on site.
Can I run several inventories at the same time?
Yes, with the Plus edition: as many inventories as you like, each counted by quantity or by named units. A rental business can track its bikes by name, its helmets by quantity and its trailers by name, all in the same calendar.
How do you close a period?
You declare the closure, and the message tells you how many bookings fall within it before you confirm. Closing cancels nothing on its own: you see what it affects, then you decide.
What about GDPR and my customers' data?
Export and erasure go through WordPress's own tools. An erasure request removes whatever identifies the person and keeps the booking in anonymised form: takings have to remain provable.
The Free edition is free
forever.
Install, choose your trade, take a booking: within ten minutes you'll know whether it's for you.
