When Mangomint is the better choice
- You want published card rates and no contract. Mangomint publishes its rates (2.45% + 15¢ in person, 2.90% + 30¢ virtual) and says there are no contracts, so the full cost is clear up front.
- You book equipment as well as rooms. Mangomint assigns equipment to services. Timeo books rooms by type but does not schedule equipment.
- You want a phone system in the same app. Mangomint sells a phone add on per line. Timeo has no phone system.
When Timeo is the better fit
- Teams with a big front desk. Ten users on Mangomint is USD 220 a month per location. Timeo Team is USD 49 with unlimited staff logins.
- Commission without payroll add ons. On Team, Timeo works out commission per service and product at checkout.
- Clients who live on WhatsApp. Reminders and confirmations come from your own business number, where clients already chat with you.
Moving from Mangomint to Timeo
Mangomint says you can take all your data with you when you leave. Ask its support for your client list and active memberships and packages as spreadsheets.
- Create your package and membership names under Catalog > Membership plans first.
- Save the client list as CSV with Name and Email or Phone.
- To bring live memberships and session packs across, add Plan, Expiry date, Total sessions and Sessions used columns: one row per member per package. Create the same plan names under Catalog > Membership plans first and the imported packages link to them.
- In Timeo, open Customers and choose Import customers. Choose CSV file (or paste the sheet), then Preview import. Timeo matches the columns, flags rows it cannot read, and matches people you already have by email, then phone. Nothing is saved until you confirm the plan.
- Add treatments under Booking setup > Services with their room type, and your rooms under Rooms.
Upcoming appointments, forms and saved cards do not import. Clients with auto renew memberships re-enter a card on their next payment. If you would rather not do it yourself, our team can run the import and set up services as part of hands-on setup, which is quoted separately.
