The pricing questions, answered.
How much does tattoo booking software cost with Patron?
Patron is $23.99 per month for a solo tattoo artist, or $43.99 per month plus $12 per artist for a multi-artist shop. Every plan includes a 30-day free trial with no card required, and Patron never takes a percentage of your deposits.
Is there a free trial, and do I need a credit card?
Yes. Every new studio gets a 30-day free trial with no credit card required. You only enter payment details if you choose to keep using Patron after the trial ends.
Does Patron take a cut of my deposits or bookings?
No. Patron takes 0% of your deposits and bookings. Payments settle directly to your own Stripe account, and your clients stay yours — there is no marketplace and no per-booking fee.
What counts as a billable artist on the Shop plan?
You are billed $12 per month only for an active artist whose booking page is open. A receptionist or front-desk-only account, and any chair with booking turned off, is not billed.
What is the cheapest way to use Patron?
The Solo plan at $23.99 per month is the lowest-priced option. Paying annually takes 20% off the plan base, and shops above 10 artists get custom pricing instead of an automatic charge.
Can I switch between Solo and Shop later?
Yes. You can move from Solo to Shop once your studio is approved, and back down to Solo whenever your roster fits a single artist. Your data and booking pages stay intact through the switch.
