Porter is tattoo booking and shop software that includes waivers on its higher tiers. Wavrr is a focused consent layer that works next to Porter or any other booking tool, at a fraction of the price.
Available on iPhone, Android, and in your browser.
It depends on what you need Porter for. If you want one suite for booking, deposits, and shop management, Porter is built for that. If the job you need done is consent forms and signed records, Wavrr does that job on its own and costs less. At the time of writing (October 2026), Porter's pricing page lists Artist Essentials at $35/mo without consent forms, while Artist Pro ($65/mo) and Studio Pro ($250/mo) include automated liability waivers and consent forms. Wavrr's Artist plan is $14.50/mo and works alongside whatever booking tool you already use. Check Porter's site for current plans.
Porter bundles booking and shop tools with waivers on its higher tiers. Wavrr only does consent documentation, so you can add it without changing how clients book.
If your booking tool covers scheduling but not waivers, adding Wavrr is usually cheaper than moving up a booking tier just to get consent forms.
Wavrr does not replace a calendar. Send the consent link with your booking confirmation, or put a QR code at the front desk.
An all-in-one platform keeps booking, deposits, client messages, and waivers in one place. That suits studios that want one vendor and are happy to move their whole booking process into it.
A focused consent layer suits studios that already have a booking routine they like, or that only need to fix paperwork. Wavrr sits next to the booking tool, so artists keep their calendar and clients keep the booking flow they know.
On Porter's published pricing at the time of writing (October 2026), consent forms are listed from the Artist Pro tier upwards. If you only want waivers, compare that tier with Wavrr Artist ($14.50/mo) or Wavrr Studio ($39.50/mo) rather than comparing headline prices.
If you want Porter's booking and shop features as well, the higher tier may be good value. Prices change, so check Porter's pricing page before deciding.
List the jobs you need software for: booking, deposits, payments, consent, ID checks, ink and needle records, and exports for inspections. Then check which tier of each tool covers them, and what the total monthly cost comes to.
For the consent side, test the actual signing flow on a phone, look at the signed PDF, and check how quickly you can find an old record. Wavrr's free plan lets you run three real consent forms through it before paying.
Yes. Wavrr is not a booking tool, so it can run next to Porter or any other booking software. Many studios send the Wavrr consent link with their booking confirmation.
