I work with clinics on migrations while building AesthetiClinic. When evaluating an alternative, I separate the patient-discovery question from the record and diary work the team needs to do. Both need evidence from your own use and the current supplier terms.

Glowday operates a patient directory and GlowdayPRO clinic software. The PRO page lists diary, booking, reminders, forms, payments and patient records, with subscription tiers based on patient count.

The page labels its tiers per practitioner and separately lists an extra-practitioner account charge. The FAQ below records the figures checked on 11 October 2026. Confirm how the terms apply to your team and ask for current payment fees before comparing.

Stay with Glowday if

  • You need the directory to find you patients. If consumer discovery is a live need and Glowday’s directory brings you enquiries, that channel is worth paying for.
  • You are building a patient base. Early on, being listed where patients search can matter more than owning every part of the booking journey.
  • You value the aesthetics-native, UK focus. Glowday is built for this industry and this market, and that focus is genuine.

What Glowday is

Glowday’s consumer side is a directory: patients browse practitioners, read about treatments, and book through Glowday. For a practitioner who is still filling a diary, appearing in a trusted consumer directory can bring genuine new enquiries, and that is the main reason to be there. The practitioner side then layers booking and records on top.

The trade-off is the same one every directory carries. Your presence is a profile within Glowday’s brand and alongside other practitioners, and the discovery journey belongs to the platform. That is a fair exchange when you want the platform to find you patients. It reads differently once your diary runs mostly on your own returning patients, where paying toward a shared directory earns you less.

Glowday pricing, in plain terms

Glowday’s practitioner offer combines a directory listing with booking and record tools. Rather than quote a figure we cannot confirm, the honest comparison is on the model: a directory-plus-tools subscription where part of what you pay is toward consumer discovery, versus a flat clinic subscription where you pay only for the software and own the discovery yourself.

AesthetiClinic is £25 plus VAT per practitioner per month for the whole platform, monthly rolling, with a 14-day free trial that requires a card. Deposits run through your own Stripe account and there is 0% commission to us, so the only additional charges are Stripe’s standard card fees. There is no directory in the middle: your booking page is your own. The full detail is on the pricing page.

Your brand versus a directory

The distinction is the same one worth weighing against any marketplace or directory. Glowday’s strength is consumer discovery: it can put you in front of patients actively searching. Its cost is that the relationship is mediated by the directory, and your brand shares the stage.

AesthetiClinic gives you a booking page under your own clinic’s brand, on your own domain, with patients booking and paying you directly. It does not send you new patients the way a directory can, and we will say so plainly: if consumer discovery is your main need right now, a directory earns its place. If you already have the patients and want depth in booking, consent and records under your own name, that is what we are built for.

Where a row says “Varies” or asks you to verify, Glowday does not publish the detail in a form we can quote with confidence, so we have flagged it rather than guess.

FAQ

How much is GlowdayPRO?

The official product page checked on 11 October 2026 lists £10, £24 and £39 monthly tiers plus VAT, based on patient count. It labels these per practitioner and separately lists an extra practitioner account at £15 plus VAT monthly. Confirm the total for your team directly, including payment fees.

Is Glowday a directory or clinic software?

It has both a patient directory and the PRO software offer. Assess any discovery benefit through attributable enquiries and attended bookings, then test the operational workflow separately. A listing does not guarantee new patients.

What should I compare besides the subscription price?

Check practitioner accounts, patient limits, messaging, payment processing, consent versions, usable exports and support terms. Ask for the same synthetic appointment-to-review scenario in each demo. Do not treat an unverified capability as absent.

What does AesthetiClinic charge?

The core subscription is £25 plus VAT per practitioner per month. SMS usage is charged separately. Patient payments run through your Stripe account at 0% commission to us, with Stripe card processing fees payable. See current pricing and agree the migration scope through the switching process.

How switching works

Moving from Glowday to your own clinic platform follows the same path as any migration. We import your patients, rebuild your consent forms as versioned templates, set up practitioners, shifts and your branded booking page, then run in parallel until you cut over. The full process is on the switching page, and the 14-day free trial, which requires a card, lets you test the export first. If discovery is what you are really buying from a directory, the JCCP register is another visibility route worth understanding before you decide. If you are weighing the wider market, see our comparisons with Pabau, Fresha and Zenoti, or the best aesthetic clinic software guide.

Before you move

Check what will come with you.

The available export and the records you can verify set the scope of a move.

  • Get the export first.

    Check patients, appointments, signed consent, treatment notes and photographs against the old system. Ask about anything that is missing.

  • Agree what needs rebuilding.

    We run the move with you. What we can import depends on what your current system lets you export.

  • Check before going live.

    Review the imported records, forms, treatments and booking setup before you switch over. Read the published scope of our commitment.
