Netherlands
Websites for Dutch clinics, salons and trades
Our longest-running client is a clinic network in the Netherlands. Three hours ahead of you, so we overlap for almost the whole working day. Built to Dutch expectations: iDEAL, the AVG, and a site that reads properly in Dutch.

What changes for a Dutch business
AVG (the Dutch GDPR)
A privacy statement, a cookie banner that only loads analytics after consent, a verwerkersovereenkomst with every tool that handles client data, and forms that collect only what is necessary. All four set up as part of the build.
Dutch first, English second
For a business serving Dutch customers the site is in Dutch, with English as a second language where you want it, and correct hreflang tags so Google shows each version to the right person. You write or approve the Dutch.
Telecommunicatiewet cookies
The Dutch cookie rules are enforced by the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, and 'by continuing you accept' banners do not count. Ours asks properly and stays out of the way.
KvK details in the footer
Your KvK number and, where applicable, BTW number, as Dutch law expects on a business website.

What Dutch businesses ask first
Can the site be in Dutch?
Yes, and for a business serving Dutch customers it should be. We build the site with Dutch as the primary language and English as a second where you want it, with the right hreflang tags so Google shows each version to the right person. You write or approve the Dutch copy; we do not run a page about your business through a translator.
Can clients pay a deposit with iDEAL?
Yes. iDEAL is how Dutch customers expect to pay online, and card-only checkout costs bookings. Deposits and online payments run through Mollie or Stripe with iDEAL enabled, connected to your booking tool.
What do we need for the AVG (GDPR)?
A privacy statement, a cookie banner that only loads analytics after consent, a processing agreement (verwerkersovereenkomst) with any tool that handles client data, and forms that collect only what is necessary. We set all four up as part of the build.
Which booking tools do Dutch salons and clinics use?
Salonized is Dutch and the most common salon tool; Treatwell and Fresha are also widespread. Clinics and practices often use Zorgdomein, Crossuite or their practice software's own online booking. Studios: Momoyoga, Eversports, Mindbody. All embed and can be styled to match.
Pick your kind of business
- DentistsPatients search at night and book in the morning, if they can. A site that lets them book, shows real prices, and looks after itself.
- ClinicsReception is on the phone. The website should be taking the bookings that do not need a person. Built for physio, chiro, podiatry, therapy, med spas and allied health.
- Salons and barbersMost of your clients decide to book when you are closed. Instagram gets them interested; the website has to take the booking.
- Studios and gymsTimetable, book a spot, buy the pass, all on a phone, in under a minute. Built for yoga, pilates, barre, dance, boxing and personal training studios.
- TradesSomeone with a leak searches, taps the first site that loads, and calls or sends photos. If your site is slow or has no form, they tap the next one.
- AutomotiveDrivers want a slot, a price and a reason to trust you. The site has to book the service or test online, quote the repair from a photo, and prove you are the honest garage.
- PetsPet owners are choosing someone to trust with a family member. The site has to show the people and the place, state prices, handle the paperwork, and book the slot.
- Education and lessonsParents and adult learners compare on qualifications, fees and fit. The site has to show all three, book a trial, and enrol the term or course without a phone call.
- Photography, events and creativeCouples and clients book a year out, compare on the work and the price, and check the date first. The site has to show the work fast, state the packages, and take the date enquiry properly.
- Professional and financial servicesClients choose on trust and clarity. The site has to explain what you do in plain words, state fees where you can, show regulation and credentials, and book the first meeting.
- Hospitality and experiencesGuests book on the marketplace because your site cannot take the booking. A site with live availability, direct reservation and honest prices takes it back, without the commission.
- Therapists and coachesClients choose a coach or therapist on fit and specificity. The site has to say exactly who you help and how, state prices, avoid the claims regulators penalise, and book the first session.
- Childcare and familyParents are choosing who looks after their child. The site has to show the setting, prove vetting and inspection, explain fees and funding, and take the enquiry, viewing or enrolment.
- Repair and technical servicesCustomers want to know if you fix their thing, what it costs and how long. The site has to answer all three and book the drop-off or visit.
- Funeral and life eventsPeople arrive at these sites at the hardest moments. The site has to be calm, answer the practical questions plainly, state prices, and make the first call or message easy.
