What is MorisBook?
MorisBook is a Mauritius marketplace where you find local businesses and book them: salons, barbers, nail care, spas and car care by appointment, and plumbers, electricians, gardeners, painters and other trades by quote request.
Does it cost anything to use MorisBook as a customer?
No. Finding and booking businesses on MorisBook is free for customers. You only pay the business for its service.
How do I find a business?
Use Find a business and search by service or place. Search understands English, French and Kreol words and common short names, for example 'plonbie QB' finds plumbers in Quatre Bornes.
How do I book an appointment?
Open the business, pick a service, pick a free time slot from its live calendar and confirm. You'll get a confirmation by email.
How do I get a price from a plumber, electrician or other trade?
Open the business and request a quote: describe the job and add up to 6 photos. The business replies with a price, and you accept or decline it.
Do I have to accept a quote?
No. A quote request is an invitation. You're free to accept or decline the price the business sends. Accepting a quote is an agreement between you and that business.
How do I pay for a booking?
Usually you pay the business directly, cash or card at the venue. Some businesses also let you pay online when you book. The money always goes to the business, not to MorisBook.
Are prices on MorisBook final?
Prices are set by each business, shown in Mauritian rupees including any applicable taxes. Listed prices are a starting point and the final price can depend on the work; if it differs from what you paid online, the business settles the difference with you directly.
Where can I see my bookings?
Sign in and open My bookings in your account. Your quote requests are listed in your account too.
How do I cancel a booking?
Open My bookings in your account and cancel the upcoming booking. It's free up to the time the business's own cancellation window (if it has one) closes. Please cancel as early as you can.
How do I cancel a quote request?
Cancelling a quote request is always free while it is still open. Cancel it from your account before the business replies, or decline the quote after.
Will I get a refund if I cancel?
If you paid online and cancel inside the business's free cancellation window, or the business cancels on you, you're entitled to a full refund. Outside that window, it's at the business's discretion and its stated terms apply.
How long does a refund take?
The business issues the refund, because it holds the money. We ask businesses to refund within 5 business days of the cancellation. A card refund then usually takes another 5 to 10 business days to appear, depending on your bank.
What is a no-show fee?
Some businesses charge a fee if you miss an appointment without cancelling. If a business has one, the exact amount is shown on the booking page before you confirm. The business can choose to waive it.
What happens if the business cancels my booking?
You're notified by email (and push notification if enabled) straight away, and you owe nothing for that booking. If you paid online you're entitled to a full refund.
Can my account be suspended?
Yes, if it's used to abuse the platform: repeatedly booking and not showing up, fake bookings, spam, or abusive reviews.
Who can leave a review?
Only customers with a completed booking or a completed quote job can review that business. Keep reviews honest and about the service; abusive, fake or unrelated reviews are removed.
Are the businesses on MorisBook checked?
Every listing is reviewed before it goes live. The work itself is an agreement between you and the business, so MorisBook isn't responsible for its quality or completion.
A business treated me unfairly. What can I do?
Contact us at hello@morisbook.mu with the details. Repeated complaints affect a business's standing on the platform.
Do I need an account to book?
An account lets you see, manage and cancel your bookings and quote requests in one place. Sign up with your email, or continue with Google.
I forgot my password. What do I do?
On the Log in page choose Forgot password, enter your email, and follow the link we send you to set a new password.
Can I use MorisBook in French or Kreol?
Yes. Use the language switch (EN, FR, KR) to view the site in English, French or Kreol Morisien.
Can I buy a MorisBook gift card?
Gift cards aren't on sale yet. On the Gift cards page you can ask to be notified the moment they launch.
How do I delete my account?
In your account, choose Delete account. This starts a 30-day countdown, then your MorisBook profile is permanently removed. Your past bookings stay with the businesses but are no longer linked to you.
How old do I need to be to use MorisBook?
You must be 18 or older to create an account, or have the consent of a parent or guardian.

Can I have more than one location?
Yes, Pro supports up to 5 locations.
Can I use customer contact details for marketing?
Only to fulfil that customer's booking or quote. Using them for unsolicited marketing breaches the MorisBook terms and the Data Protection Act 2017.
What licences do I need to list my business?
You must hold whatever licences or permits your trade requires in Mauritius, including any registration required by the Business Registration Act.
What happens if I cancel a customer's booking?
The customer is notified straight away and owes nothing; if they paid online they're entitled to a full refund from you. Repeatedly cancelling confirmed bookings can lead to suspension from the platform.
How do I delete my business account?
Open Settings in your studio dashboard and choose Delete account. This starts a 30-day countdown. If you're the only owner, your business, its services and its listing are removed too. This can't be undone after 30 days.
