Best Scheduling Software for Grief Coaches: Top 5 for 2026
The best scheduling software for grief coaches does more than fill a calendar. A grieving client books on a hard day, often late at night, sometimes from another time zone, and may need to pause for two weeks after an anniversary. So the deciding question is simple: does the tool let that person buy a package once, book when they are ready, answer a few gentle questions before the first call, get a quiet reminder, and find something waiting for them between sessions? Most booking apps cover the first half of that list and stop.
Our pick is Coachful, because it handles the booking and everything after it in one place: session credits, payment at booking, intake questions, a coaching agreement, reminders, video links and a branded client space with check-ins and habits for the weeks between calls. We make Coachful, so weigh that, and read the other four entries closely. Acuity Scheduling, Calendly, Paperbell and TidyCal each win for a specific kind of grief practice, and we say which.
What do grief coaches actually need from scheduling software?
Grief coaches need a booking system that respects an unpredictable client, keeps money and paperwork out of the session, and gives the client somewhere to land between calls. The calendar itself is the easy part.
Grief work has a rhythm that general business scheduling does not. Here is what that rhythm asks of the software.
- Packages that a client can draw down slowly. Many grief coaches sell a set of sessions (six, eight, twelve) rather than single calls. A bereaved client may book three weeks in a row, then disappear for a month around a birthday or the first holiday without their person. Session credits that stay on the account, rather than a fixed weekly slot, fit that pattern far better.
- Payment taken at booking, not in the session. Asking for a card number after someone has spent fifty minutes talking about their mother's last week is awful for both of you. The money conversation belongs on the booking page or the package checkout.
- Intake questions that are short and kind. Who died, roughly when, what support the client already has, and what they hope coaching will help with. You also want a place to note anything that suggests the client needs a therapist rather than a coach.
- A clear scope line before the first call. Grief coaching is not grief counselling or therapy. A signed coaching agreement that says so, and says what happens if clinical concerns come up, protects the client and you. Our guide to grief and loss coaching boundaries covers the wording.
- Reminders that do not nag. One reminder the day before and one shortly before the call is plenty. Clients in early grief often forget appointments, and that forgetfulness is a normal part of grief, not disinterest.
- Time zones handled for you. Grief coaching is often online and international, especially for clients supporting family abroad or grieving someone who lived far away.
- Something between sessions. A short evening check-in, a reflection prompt, a small daily habit such as a walk. This is where a scheduling-only tool runs out and a coaching platform starts.
One more thing sits underneath all of this. Some clients will show signs of what clinicians call prolonged grief disorder, or will mention thoughts of self-harm. Your tools should make it easy to record that concern and refer on, and your intake should ask in a way that surfaces it early. In the United States, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is the number to have on your intake confirmation page; elsewhere, list your local equivalent.
The 5 best scheduling tools for grief coaches at a glance
Ranked on one line of criteria: one login for the whole client journey from booking to between-session support, how gently each tool handles packages and intake, the total cost of the stack you would need around it, and how much setup effort it takes (including the free white-glove build Coachful offers).
| Tool | Rank | Best for | Starting price (as listed October 2026) | Main gap for grief coaches |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coachful | #1 | Grief coaches selling packages who want booking, agreements, payments and between-session support in one place | Lite: $29/month for up to 5 clients | Not HIPAA-certified, so not for clinical records; no PayPal |
| Acuity Scheduling | #2 | Coaches who want detailed intake forms and packages on a classic booking page | Starter $20/mo ($16/mo billed annually) | No client portal for check-ins, habits or messaging; text reminders start on Standard |
| Calendly | #3 | Coaches who only need a clean booking link and already have other tools | Free plan; Standard $10/mo billed annually | No client records, notes, contracts or invoicing |
| Paperbell | #4 | Solo coaches who want packages, contracts and a simple site at one flat price | $97/mo ($80.83/mo billed annually) | No habit or goal tracking, courses or community; no native mobile app |
| TidyCal | #5 | Coaches on a very tight budget who sell a few paid sessions | Free plan; Pro $12/mo ($8.25/mo billed annually) | 1% platform fee on Stripe payments below Pro; no client records |
How did we choose these five tools?
We started from the grief coaching client journey and scored tools on what vendors document on their own pricing and product pages in October 2026, plus public review ratings. We did not run hands-on tests for this article, and we say so wherever it matters.
The criteria, in order of weight:
- Packages and session credits. Can a client buy several sessions once and book them at their own pace?
- Payment at booking. Does the tool take the card before the call, through the coach's own processor?
- Intake on booking. Can you ask the questions you need before the first session, and does the answer stay with the client's record?
- Reminders. Email at minimum; text or WhatsApp for clients who live on their phones.
- Video links and time zones. Does the call link appear automatically and does the booking page show the client's local time?
- What happens after the booking. Agreements, notes, check-ins, resources, and whether the client has a place to go between calls.
- Total cost. Not just the scheduling plan, but what else you would have to pay for to cover contracts, a client space and email.
We left out tools built for clinical practices, because grief coaches who are not licensed clinicians should not be keeping clinical charts, and tools whose prices we could not confirm from the packet of vendor data we work from. If you want the wider category view, our parent guide to the best scheduling software for coaches compares eight tools without the grief lens, and best coaching software for grief and loss coaches looks past scheduling to the whole stack.
1. Coachful: booking plus the support between sessions
Coachful is a coaching platform where the booking page is the front door rather than the whole house. A grieving client can buy a package, book a first call in their own time zone, answer your intake questions, sign your coaching agreement and then find a branded space with check-ins and small habits waiting for them, all under one login for you and one app for them.
How booking works for a grief practice
Booking pages come with availability rules, buffers between sessions and a minimum-notice setting, so nobody can book a heavy grief session ten minutes from now. Time zones are detected for the client. Calendars sync two ways with Google, Apple/iCloud and Outlook, so a family commitment on your personal calendar blocks the slot. Each session gets either Coachful's built-in video or an auto-created Zoom, Google Meet or Teams link.
Reminders go out by email by default. Once messaging is enabled you can add an SMS reminder 24 hours before and a WhatsApp reminder one hour before, which suits clients who are not checking email much right now. You can ask intake questions on the booking form itself, and the answers land on the client record next to their sessions, payments and your notes.
Paid sessions and session credits both work, which matters for grief. Sell an eight-session package once; the client books each session against their credits when they feel able to, and you can see what is left without a spreadsheet.
Money and paperwork before the first call
Payments run through your own Stripe Connect or Razorpay account: one-time payments, subscriptions, payment plans, coupons and refunds, with Apple Pay and Google Pay at checkout. Coachful takes a 0% platform fee (since August 2026), so you pay only Stripe or Razorpay processing. Payment plans are a kind option for grieving clients who may also be dealing with funeral costs or a sudden drop in household income.
Coaching agreements with e-signature go out before the first call and are stored on the client record. That is the right place for your scope line: what grief coaching is, what it is not, and that you will refer to a licensed mental health professional if clinical concerns come up.
What the client gets between sessions
This is the part a scheduling app cannot do. You can enroll a client in a multi-week program with weekly goals, daily tasks, habits and morning and evening check-ins. For grief that might be a gentle evening check-in ("How was today, one word is fine"), a weekly reflection, or a small habit like a ten-minute walk. Each client's record shows a status of thriving, active, quiet or at risk, which helps you notice a client who has gone silent and decide whether to reach out.
You can also share courses, downloads, videos and worksheets into the client's branded home, and run small group calls or a private community if you offer a grief circle alongside 1:1 work. Our guide to group coaching platforms for grief coaches covers that side. Michelle, the built-in AI assistant, can brief you on a client before a session from their check-ins and notes, which helps when you see several grieving clients in one day and want to walk in remembering what each one shared.
Here is a short walkthrough of the scheduling side:
Why Coachful stands out: a free white-glove service. On every plan, you can go to Create and choose "We'll build it for you · FREE", describe what you need (a booking funnel, a gentle intake form, a six-week grief support program outline, a website) and attach up to 8 reference links and up to 10 files. The Coachful team builds it inside your own account, usually within about 24 hours. Nothing is invented: no fake credentials, testimonials or prices; gaps are left for you to fill. It does not include recording videos, logo design or ad management. One recent build: a menopause and midlife health coach starting from nothing got a five-page site in sage and cream with every button leading to a free 20-minute consultation, which is close to what many new grief coaches need. More in our write-up of the free white-glove service.
Where Coachful falls short
Coachful is not HIPAA-certified and does not sign a BAA, so it is not a place for clinical records or insurance billing. If you are a licensed therapist offering grief counselling, use a clinical system for that work. There is no PayPal, no permanent free plan, and the client app ships under the Coachful listing with your branding rather than under your own App Store account. There are also no routing forms that pick a host from form answers, which matters only if you run a team. Trustpilot shows 4.5 from 21 reviews, a small sample.
Price: flat monthly plans; lower plans cap the number of clients and Pro is unlimited (current plans: Lite: $29/month for up to 5 clients; Solo: $49/month for up to 20 clients; Pro: $99/month with unlimited clients; Studio: $199/month with unlimited clients). Monthly plans cancel in one click, and there is a free trial. Everything in this section is included in your Coachful membership. See the scheduling software page for the full feature list.
In short: what Coachful is, a coaching platform covering booking, payments, agreements, programs, check-ins, courses, community, website and email; who it is for, coaches who deliver ongoing support rather than one-off calls; what it does not do, clinical records, PayPal or a free-forever tier; how to start, a free trial plus the free white-glove build.
2. Acuity Scheduling: the most detailed booking forms
Acuity Scheduling is the strongest pure booking tool on this list for grief coaches who want detailed intake questions and packages on a traditional scheduling page. It is owned by Squarespace.
Why it suits grief work
Acuity documents intake forms, packages and memberships as core features. For a grief coach, that means a client can buy a block of sessions, answer a fuller intake form than most booking tools allow, and book against the package. Payments go through your own Stripe, Square, PayPal or Venmo account, and Acuity lists no fee of its own on top of the processor rates. PayPal and Venmo support helps clients who would rather not enter card details.
Calendar capacity scales by plan: Starter covers 1 calendar, Standard up to 6, Premium up to 36. A solo grief coach will be fine on one calendar. Text reminders start on Standard, so if you want SMS for clients who miss emails, budget for that tier.
Acuity also offers a HIPAA BAA, but only on Premium. Most grief coaches do not need one because they are not keeping health records, but if you are a licensed counsellor who also coaches, that option exists here and not in Coachful.
Pricing as listed in October 2026
- Starter: $20/mo ($16/mo billed annually), 1 calendar
- Standard: $34/mo ($27/mo billed annually), up to 6 calendars, text reminders
- Premium: $69/mo ($55/mo billed annually), up to 36 calendars, HIPAA BAA available
- Enterprise: price not listed
Every plan comes with a 7-day free trial and no card required. Trustpilot shows 3.6 from 687 reviews (seen October 25, 2026). Our Acuity Scheduling pricing breakdown and Acuity Scheduling review go deeper.
Limits
The client experience ends when the booking does. There is no client portal for programs, habits, check-ins or messaging, and no courses, community, website builder or email marketing. A grief coach on Acuity typically adds a contract tool, an email tool and somewhere to share resources, which raises both the cost and the number of logins a grieving client has to manage.
Pick it over Coachful if you only need sophisticated booking and intake forms, you want PayPal or Venmo at checkout, or you are a licensed clinician who needs a BAA on the Premium plan.
3. Calendly: the simplest booking link
Calendly is the right choice when you already have the rest of your practice set up and just want a booking link that clients recognise. It does that one job well and leaves the rest to other tools.
What a grief coach gets from it
Calendly provides booking pages, reminder workflows and paid bookings. You connect your own Stripe or PayPal account and pay their rates; Calendly documents no fee of its own on payments. The free plan gives you one event type and one calendar connection, which is enough for a single "first conversation" call while you are starting out. Our guide on how to start a grief coaching business covers why a free discovery call is often the first thing to set up.
Booking questions are available, but they are booking questions rather than a full intake form. For grief, that is enough to ask "Who are you grieving?" and "Is there anything you would like me to know before we talk?", but not enough for a structured intake you will refer back to.
Pricing as listed in October 2026
- Free: $0, 1 event type, 1 calendar connection, 1:1 scheduling
- Standard: $10/mo per seat billed annually (monthly price not shown on the pricing page), up to 6 calendar connections, unlimited event types
- Teams: $16/mo per seat billed annually
- Teams Plus: $24/mo per seat billed annually
- Enterprise: starts at $15k/yr with a 50-seat minimum
Trustpilot shows 4.1 from 714 reviews (seen October 25, 2026). Pricing is per seat, so a grief practice that adds a second coach pays twice.
Where it stops
Calendly has no client records, notes, programs, habits or check-ins, and no contracts or invoicing. The free plan's single event type means you cannot offer both a discovery call and a paid session without upgrading. For a grief coach, the bigger issue is that after a client books, Calendly has nothing more to offer them. You will need a separate place for agreements, session notes and between-session support.
Pick it over Coachful if you only need a booking link, already run agreements, notes and client support elsewhere, and want the lowest-effort way to let clients book.
4. Paperbell: one flat price for solo coaching admin
Paperbell is an all-in-one admin tool for solo coaches, and of the tools here it is the closest substitute for Coachful. It covers booking, packages, payments, contracts, a client portal and a simple website for one flat price.
The grief coaching fit
Paperbell's model suits a grief coach selling a fixed package: a client lands on a simple page, buys the package, signs the contract and books sessions. The single plan includes unlimited clients, sessions, files, packages and traffic. Paperbell says there are no additional transaction fees, so you pay only your processor (Stripe or PayPal, according to its older profile data). There is a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Because it is one plan, there are no feature tiers to decode, which is a real relief for a new grief coach who does not want to compare calendar counts and SMS credits.
What it costs
- Single plan: $97/mo ($80.83/mo billed annually), unlimited clients, sessions, files and packages
A "Try For Free" button sits on the pricing page; Paperbell's help center (as of July 2026) described a 7-day trial with the public site offline and client messages and SMS turned off during the trial. Trustpilot shows 3.5 from 14 reviews (seen October 25, 2026), a small sample. If you are weighing it carefully, our list of Paperbell alternatives for grief coaches compares twelve options.
Gaps to know about
Paperbell's older profile data lists no courses or LMS, no community and no goal or habit tracking. There is no native mobile app; clients use a mobile browser. For grief work, that means no check-ins or small daily practices between sessions inside the tool, and no place to run a grief support circle. The price is also the same whether you see 3 clients or 40; the cost table below shows how that compares.
Pick it over Coachful if you want a single fixed monthly price with unlimited clients, you need PayPal at checkout, and you are confident you will never want check-ins, habits, courses or a community.
5. TidyCal: paid sessions on a shoestring
TidyCal is a low-cost booking tool (sold through AppSumo) that supports paid bookings and packages. It is the most budget-friendly way on this list to start taking paid grief coaching sessions.
Who it helps most
A grief coach who is just starting, maybe still finishing training and seeing a handful of clients, can run TidyCal's free plan with unlimited booking types and bookings. That covers a free discovery call, a single paid session and a small package. Calendar connections on Free are limited to one readable and one writable calendar, with basic Google, Office 365 and Apple integrations. If you are earlier still, our guide on how to become a grief coach covers training and scope before you need any software.
Plans and fees as listed in October 2026
- Free: $0, unlimited booking types and bookings, 1 readable and 1 writable calendar
- Individual Lifetime: one-time price not verified in our data; 10 readable calendars, no SMS
- Agency Lifetime: one-time price not verified in our data; 10 readable calendars, 10 SMS reminders a month (US and Canada)
- Pro: $12/mo ($8.25/mo billed annually), unlimited calendar connections and unlimited SMS reminders
The important detail: TidyCal charges a 1% platform fee on Stripe payments on Free and Lifetime plans, and 0% on Pro. Stripe's own fees apply on top. TidyCal lists no trial, since the free plan serves that purpose. Trustpilot shows 3.1 from 182 reviews (seen October 25, 2026).
Limits
No client records, notes, programs, habits or check-ins, and no courses, community, website builder or email marketing. SMS reminders are limited or absent below Pro. Like Calendly, TidyCal is a doorway with nothing behind it, so plan where your agreements and client notes will live. Our roundup of the cheapest scheduling software for coaches compares it with other budget picks.
Pick it over Coachful if your budget is close to zero, you see only a few paid clients a month, and you are fine handling agreements, notes and between-session support by email for now.
How do the features compare side by side?
The table below shows what each vendor documents for the features grief coaches use most. "Add-on tool" means you would need separate software for that job.
| Tool | Packages or session credits | Payment at booking | Intake | Text reminders | Agreements with e-signature | Between-session support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coachful | Yes, session credits | Yes (Stripe Connect or Razorpay) | Intake questions on booking, saved to client record | SMS 24 h and WhatsApp 1 h once messaging is enabled | Yes, sent before the first call | Programs, check-ins, habits, courses, community |
| Acuity Scheduling | Yes, packages and memberships | Yes (Stripe, Square, PayPal, Venmo) | Intake forms | From Standard | Add-on tool | None |
| Calendly | Not documented in our data | Yes (Stripe or PayPal) | Booking questions only | Not documented in our data | Add-on tool | None |
| Paperbell | Yes, packages | Yes | Not detailed in our data | Yes (off during trial) | Yes, contracts | Client portal; no habits, check-ins or courses |
| TidyCal | Yes, packages | Yes (Stripe, 1% fee below Pro) | Not detailed in our data | Pro, or 10 a month on Agency Lifetime | Add-on tool | None |
What does each option cost at 5, 15 and 40 clients?
Scheduling-only tools price by calendar or seat, so the client count barely changes their bill. What changes is everything you have to add around them. The figures below are the listed monthly prices for one coach, as of October 2026; processor fees are extra in every row.
| Tool | 5 clients | 15 clients | 40 clients | What you still need to add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coachful | Lite: $29/month for up to 5 clients | Solo: $49/month for up to 20 clients | Pro: $99/month with unlimited clients | Nothing for booking, agreements, payments, check-ins or email |
| Acuity Scheduling | $20/mo Starter (or $34/mo Standard for texts) | $20/mo or $34/mo | $20/mo or $34/mo | Contracts, client space, email marketing |
| Calendly | $0 Free, or $10/mo Standard billed annually | $10/mo billed annually | $10/mo billed annually | Client records, contracts, invoicing, client space, email |
| Paperbell | $97/mo | $97/mo | $97/mo | Habits, check-ins, courses, community |
| TidyCal | $0 plus 1% of Stripe payments | $0 plus 1%, or $12/mo Pro | $12/mo Pro | Client records, contracts, client space, email |
An illustrative example of the add-on effect: a grief coach on a scheduling-only tool who also pays for an e-signature tool and an email newsletter tool is paying three bills and managing three logins, and the client still has nowhere to go between calls. Add up your own current subscriptions before comparing.
How would a grief coach set this up in Coachful, step by step?
Here is a practical setup for a solo grief coach offering a free first conversation and an eight-session package. It takes an afternoon, or you can hand most of it to the white-glove team.
- Connect your calendar and video. Sync Google, Apple/iCloud or Outlook two ways, then choose Coachful's built-in video or auto-created Zoom, Meet or Teams links for each session type.
- Create a free 30-minute "first conversation" session type. Add a buffer after it and a minimum notice of at least a day, so nobody books a raw first conversation an hour from now.
- Write four gentle intake questions on the booking form. For example: who you are grieving and your relationship to them; roughly when they died; what support you have now (friends, family, a therapist, a group); what you hope coaching might help with. Add a closing line pointing to crisis support, such as 988 in the United States.
- Connect Stripe Connect or Razorpay and create the package. Set up an eight-session package that grants session credits. Consider a payment plan option. Price it from your own costs and the hours involved; we do not quote grief coaching rates here.
- Set up your coaching agreement. State that coaching is not therapy, counselling or medical care; that you will refer to a licensed professional if you see signs of clinical depression, prolonged grief disorder or risk of harm; your cancellation and rescheduling terms; and how session credits expire, if they do. Send it for e-signature before the first paid call.
- Turn on reminders. Keep email, and enable SMS (24 hours before) and WhatsApp (1 hour before) once messaging is set up.
- Build a light between-session flow. Start from the coaching flows library: a short welcome flow, plus an evening check-in with one or two optional prompts. Keep it short; grieving clients should not feel graded.
- Add a small resource shelf. Upload a worksheet or reading list to the client's branded home. If you run a grief circle, create a group and schedule the calls.
- Test it as a client. Book the free call yourself from a different email, check the time-zone display, read the reminder emails, and sign the agreement on your phone.
Once a client has booked, the Payments tab keeps an invoice per transaction, so you never need to raise money during a session.
If writing intake questions or agreement wording feels heavy, use the white-glove request to have the booking funnel, intake form and a six-week program outline built for you, then edit the wording so it sounds like you.
Which mistakes do grief coaches make with scheduling software?
Most problems come from treating grief clients like any other appointment. These are the common ones.
- Strict weekly slots with no flexibility. Grief is not linear. Sell credits rather than a recurring standing slot, so a client can step back after an anniversary without losing money or feeling they failed.
- Charging in the session. Take payment at booking or on package purchase. Talking money after an emotional session damages trust.
- Long, clinical intake forms. A twenty-question form full of diagnostic language reads like a hospital admission. Ask four or five open questions and save the rest for the first call.
- No scope line. Without a signed agreement that says coaching is not therapy, clients may expect clinical care. Our explainer on what grief coaching is and when you need more helps you word this.
- Cheerful reminder copy. "Get ready for an amazing session!" lands badly with someone whose partner died last month. Rewrite the default reminder to something plain and warm.
- Ignoring time zones. International clients booking from a page that shows only your local time will miss calls. Use a tool that detects their time zone.
- Collecting clinical records in a coaching tool. Coachful is not HIPAA-certified, and Acuity offers a BAA only on Premium. Keep notes to coaching observations; if you are also a licensed clinician, clinical records belong in a clinical system.
- Five tools for one client. A booking app, a contract tool, an email tool, a payment link and a shared folder means five places a grieving client has to remember. Fewer logins is kinder.
What is our verdict?
For most grief coaches, Coachful is the best scheduling software because grief work does not end at the booking. Session credits suit an uneven pace, payment at booking keeps money out of the session, agreements carry your scope line, and check-ins and habits give the client somewhere to go between calls, all in one login. The free white-glove build removes most of the setup effort.
Choose Acuity Scheduling if you want detailed intake forms and PayPal or Venmo, or need a BAA on Premium as a licensed clinician. Choose Calendly if you only need a booking link and already run everything else elsewhere. Choose Paperbell if you want one flat price for packages, contracts and a simple site and will not need between-session tools. Choose TidyCal if your budget is near zero and you have only a few paid clients.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best scheduling software for grief coaches?
For most grief coaches, Coachful, because it handles session credits, payment at booking, intake questions, agreements and reminders, then gives clients check-ins and habits between sessions. Acuity Scheduling is the strongest booking-only alternative, and Calendly or TidyCal suit coaches who just need a link.
Do grief coaches need HIPAA-compliant scheduling software?
Coaches who are not licensed clinicians and do not keep health records generally do not work under HIPAA, but check with an attorney if you are unsure about your situation. Coachful is not HIPAA-certified and does not sign a BAA. Acuity offers a BAA on its Premium plan, which matters if you are a licensed counsellor who also offers grief counselling.
Should I sell grief coaching as single sessions or packages?
Many grief coaches sell packages because progress takes several conversations, but the package should be flexible. Session credits let a client book at their own pace rather than committing to a fixed weekly slot, which suits the uneven pace of grief.
What intake questions should a grief coach ask at booking?
Keep it to four or five open questions: who the client is grieving, roughly when the loss happened, what support they already have, and what they hope coaching might help with. Include a line pointing to crisis support, and keep deeper questions for the first call.
When should a grief coach refer a client to a therapist?
Refer when you see signs of clinical depression, thoughts of self-harm, substance misuse, trauma symptoms, or grief that is not easing after a long period and is disrupting daily life, which clinicians may assess as prolonged grief disorder. Put this commitment in your coaching agreement so the client knows it in advance.
Can I take payment plans for grief coaching packages?
Yes, in several tools. Coachful supports payment plans, subscriptions and one-time payments through your own Stripe Connect or Razorpay account, with a 0% Coachful platform fee. Check each other vendor's current documentation for its payment plan options.
What is Coachful's free white-glove service?
On every Coachful plan, you can ask the Coachful team to build things inside your account: a website, booking funnel, intake form, program outline, email sequence and more. You describe it, attach up to 8 links and 10 files, and it is usually ready in about 24 hours. Nothing is invented, and it does not cover video recording, logo design or ads.
Is Calendly enough for a grief coaching practice?
It is enough for booking, and the free plan covers one event type. It has no client records, notes, contracts or invoicing, so you would need other tools for agreements and between-session support.
Does Coachful support PayPal?
No. Coachful payments run through Stripe Connect or Razorpay, including Apple Pay and Google Pay. If PayPal is essential for your clients, Acuity Scheduling, Calendly and Paperbell list PayPal support.
Can grieving clients book across time zones?
Coachful detects the client's time zone on its booking pages, so an international client sees the slot in their own local time. Confirm how any other tool displays time zones before you share your link abroad.
