Yes, up to 250 form submissions and 100 bookings a month. Most solo freelancers never pass that.

Can I use my own domain?

Not yet. Your page lives at calendarform.bobwork.ai/your-name.

Is a free client intake form enough for freelancers in Germany?

For most small freelancers, yes. You get 250 form submissions and 100 bookings free every month; after that, $5 buys 2,000 more submissions or 500 bookings, and packs never expire. Prices on your page can be in EUR.

Does the form follow GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG?

The form collects only the questions you add and shows your consent line. Following GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG is still your job: ask only what you need, say why, and link your privacy notice.

Can I write the form in German?

Yes. Questions, options and the thank-you message are free text, so you can write them in German and English.

Free client intake form for freelancers in Germany

A freelancer in Germany needs a client intake form that asks the right questions, shows prices in EUR, uses +49 phone numbers and fits GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG. CalendarForm gives you that form free for 250 submissions a month, joined to a booking page that shows times in Europe/Berlin (UTC+1, UTC+2 during daylight saving).

What do you need done?

Phone, in the local format (for example +49 151 23456789)

Show the price as text on the booking page, for example "35 € for a project kick-off call, pay by EC card (girocard) and PayPal". CalendarForm does not take payment itself, so customers pay you the way they already do in Germany.

What freelancers usually let customers book

Intro call: a 1-to-1 appointment, 15 min
Project kickoff: a 1-to-1 appointment, 45 min

For freelancers in Germany, CalendarForm gives a freelancer one page with a booking link for calls and a project brief form, so new clients book a time and tell you what they need in one step. Most freelancers stay inside the free tier.

Put the booking link in your email signature.

Use a project brief form before every kickoff.

Set minimum notice so you are never booked same-day by surprise.

Privacy: what GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG means for this form

Nationally, GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG is GDPR plus Germany's Federal Data Protection Act: link your privacy notice from the form and collect only what you need.

CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.

Booking times in Germany

Germany changes its clocks for daylight saving, so a Intro call at 18:00 stays at 18:00 local time all year. CalendarForm skips times that do not exist on the night the clocks go forward.

Customers booking from abroad still see the time in Europe/Berlin, with the zone printed next to it, and their confirmation email repeats it.

Set it up in four steps

Sign up free, pick the closest business type, and rename the starter form to "Client intake form".
Set the time zone to Europe/Berlin and add your opening hours.
Edit the questions above, add the GDPR (DSGVO) and the BDSG consent line, and attach the form to your booking page.
Share your link. Each booking sends an email confirmation with a cancel link, and a reminder 24 hours before.
