From their public pricing pages, checked October 27, 2026. "Not listed" means we couldn\'t find it there.
Charging for core features would be like charging extra for napkins at a rib joint. Not gonna happen. Nobody likes surprise charges, just like nobody likes surprise broccoli.
$35/mo, no contracts, no "premium tier" surprise.
Barbercita is one flat price for the whole shop: every barber, every location and your own branded app, with every feature included. No per-barber fees, no per-location fees, no tiers to unlock.
