- Comment: See WP:NCORP and the distinction there between corporate depth and corporate trivia. All fundraising is in the trivia section and that is the only source deployed here. We need much more than this to have a viable article, and mostly companies of this scale are unable to reach that. ChrysGalley (talk) 08:49, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

Fresha is a British technology company headquartered in London that develops business-management software and an online booking marketplace for the beauty and wellness industry.[1] The company was founded in 2015 as Shedul by William Zeqiri and Nick Miller.[2]
History
[edit]Zeqiri and Miller developed the idea for Shedul while living in Dubai after identifying difficulties with booking beauty and wellness services online. They subsequently developed a software platform for salons and spas, launching the business in 2015.[2]
The company later expanded its platform with a consumer-facing marketplace, allowing users to discover and book beauty and wellness services.[3] In February 2020, the company rebranded from Shedul to Fresha.[4]
Platform
[edit]Fresha combines business-management software with a consumer marketplace for beauty and wellness services. Its platform includes appointment management, payments and tools for managing business operations, while its marketplace allows consumers to discover and book participating businesses.[1]
