Deposits are available on every plan, including Free. The client picks a time and pays through your booking flow; funds settle to your connected Stripe account. The booking fee on the deposit is the client's by default, not yours: 9.9% on Free, 4.5% on Plus, and none on Pro.
LVL2 keeps the request, schedule, reminders, and client thread organized so you are not relying on a DM pile. Payment-backed protections return after replacement processing is live.
A client texts LVL2b0t's dedicated number and it takes it from there. Through a natural text conversation, it collects everything you need — placement, size, style, references, availability — and submits the completed request to you automatically. The client never has to open a link or fill out a form. They just text back. It lands in your inbox as a request for you to review.
Yes — 2-way Google Calendar sync is built in. Your LVL2 availability stays in sync with your personal calendar automatically. Clients only see your real open slots — zero double-bookings, zero conflicts.
Yes. LVL2 is built around the tattoo workflow first — you keep one artist account for life. A studio is a group you join or open on top of it, with a roster, a walk-in queue and shared reporting, and your own booking page carries on exactly as it was.
LVL2 runs on Stripe Connect. Deposits collect at booking and land in your connected account. Instant payout is available at 2.5% when you do not want to wait for the standard schedule. Every charge is shown before you pay anything.
Yes. Your client list is yours — we never sell it, share it, or use it for anything other than running your account. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. You can export your full client database at any time.
Claim your handle and take deposit-first bookings today. Free for artists, and it grows with you if you ever open a studio.
