General
What is Mawaeed?
A booking platform built for Lebanese service businesses: a booking website under your name, a team calendar, automatic WhatsApp reminders, and simple reports. Clients book themselves; you run your day.
Do I need a bank account?
No. Mawaeed works with Whish, OMT, or cash. You collect from your clients however they prefer.
What languages does it support?
Your booking page and the emails your clients receive can be in Arabic, French, or English, and this site speaks all three. The WhatsApp reminder is sent in English.
Do my clients need an app?
No. They book through a web link. You can install Mawaeed as an app on your phone or desktop if you like.
Does it work on a slow connection?
Yes. Mawaeed is built mobile first and works on slow 3G and during power cuts.
Plans & billing
Is there a free plan?
No, but every new business gets 14 free days of the plan it chooses, with no card and no bank account. After that, Pro is $20 a month and Studio $40, paid by Whish, monthly or yearly.
How do I pay for a paid plan?
Via Whish or other supported local methods. Send the payment, we confirm it, and your plan activates.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancelling stops future renewals; your plan stays active until the end of the paid period, then everything keeps working for 5 more days before the account is paused. Your data stays, and you can export it any time.
What happens if I do not pay when my plan ends?
Everything keeps working for 5 more days, so a late payment changes nothing. After that the account is paused: online booking on your page pauses (visitors see your phone and WhatsApp instead), and the dashboard becomes read only. You can still see and export all your data, nothing is deleted, and paying switches everything back on.
Is there a refund policy?
No. Subscription payments, monthly or yearly, are not refundable. You can cancel anytime, and your plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for. See the Refund Policy page for the details.
Bookings & reminders
How do reminders work?
Mawaeed confirms every booking, sends a WhatsApp reminder 24 hours before the visit, and emails your client in their own language: a reminder 2 hours before, plus a follow-up after.
Can I block time off?
Yes. Mark holidays, breaks, or busy blocks in Availability and those times simply stop being offered online.
Can clients cancel or reschedule themselves?
Yes, from the link in their confirmation, within the rules you set. You are notified automatically and the slot reopens.
Can I add bookings I take by phone?
Of course. Add them from the dashboard in seconds; they get the same confirmations and reminders.
Does Mawaeed sync with Google Calendar?
Yes. Every booking, reschedule, and cancellation lands in your Google Calendar automatically.
Your website
Do I get a real website?
Yes: yourname.mawaeed.io with your services, photos, team, reviews, map, and booking built in.
Can I customize it?
Everything: colors, logo, sections, photos, and text, from a visual editor. Three layouts per trade, switchable anytime. No code.
Can I use my own domain?
Not yet, custom domains are on the roadmap. Today your page lives at your-name.mawaeed.io, short and easy to share.
Is it available in Arabic?
This site, your booking page and your clients' emails speak Arabic with full right to left, plus French and English. The WhatsApp reminder is sent in English.
