What this guide covers
The concrete checks worth running before you tell clients you've switched to Bloomber.
Before you start
- Complete your basic setup first. See Prepare Stripe, services, and team data before go-live.
Migration risks
- Announcing a switch before verifying everything works can mean clients hit broken bookings, missing services, or payment failures right when you're trying to make a good first impression.
Migration timeline
Run these checks in the days right before you go live — ideally with a real test booking, not just a visual review.
Steps
Phase 1: Prepare
Have a list of everything you set up — services, team, payments, booking policies — ready to check off one by one.
Phase 2: Migrate
Not applicable — this guide is the verification step itself.
Phase 3: Verify
- Services — every active service shows the correct name, duration, and price.
- Team — every team member has accepted their invite and completed their own profile and availability.
- Payments — Stripe shows fully connected, not pending.
- Booking policies — your cancellation window, deposit requirements, and no-show policy are configured as intended.
- Booking link — your storefront is published and a real test booking completes end to end.
- If you migrated from Booksy — spot-check a sample of imported clients and services for accuracy.
Phase 4: Stabilize
Once everything above checks out, move to Stabilize after migration: first 30 days.
What success looks like
- A real test booking completes without issues, from service selection through payment.
- Your team, services, and policies all reflect what you actually intended.
Common problems
- A test booking fails — Check services, availability, and Stripe connection individually to isolate which step is broken, rather than guessing.
- A team member's profile isn't ready — Confirm they've accepted their invite and completed setup. See Getting started.
- Imported client data looks off — See Switch from Booksy to Bloomber (Business Owner) — only name, email, and phone transfer; anything else needs manual correction.
