Starting price is the cheapest published plan for that business type, USD, from each maker's own pricing page on 11 Nov 2026. Gingr's $100 is its annual-billing rate ($109 billed monthly).

1. 1Export from the old system: clients with contact details, pets with breed, notes and vaccine records, your service menu with prices, and your staff list. On Gingr, these come out of its reports as CSV files - its support can say which reports to run.
2. 2Know what might not move. Saved payment cards are the big one: Groomify says clients re-add a card through Stripe at their first booking, though processor-to-processor card migration is sometimes possible - confirm your exact path with both providers and budget for re-collection. Appointment history depends on the pair: Groomify imports it from Gingr and MoeGo; Scout cannot import appointment data at all.
3. 3Start the new system's free trial and import during the trial. Groomify's importer maps your old columns and flags what it cannot match; Scout's team does the import for you from its template; Time To Pet migrates your records free.
4. 4Spot-check a handful of clients, pets and vaccine records against the old system before trusting the import.
5. 5Set your hours, staff and services, then run both systems side by side for a few days. Groomify says most of its switchers are booking within days - vendor-reported, not a guarantee.
6. 6Move the booking link on your website and your Google Business Profile, and redirect old booking links where you can.
7. 7Tell clients once: the new booking link, and - unless both providers confirm a card transfer for your switch - that they will add their card again at the first booking.
8. 8Cancel the old subscription only after a clean first billing cycle on the new one - and export your financial history before you close it.
