Get paid online

Get paid in person, or after the service

  • Retail POS - Make your phone a point of sale, so clients can accept payment for services that have already been booked. 
  • Mobile POS - Use your phone as a point-of-sale (POS).
  • CC on file - Save clients' credit card details and charge for future bookings in a more convenient way.
  • Charge manually with cc details - Accept payments by typing in the customers' credit card details. This works great for accepting bookings over the phone.
  • Pay links - Instantly request payments from contacts by sharing unique pay link URLs that allow them to make secure online payments. Share pay links via email, social media, SMS, and other channels. You can also create and send QR codes as pay links.
  • Invoices - Create and send professional invoices in seconds. Simply email or text your invoice so your clients can make payment.

Limit no shows by charging deposits

  • Charge deposits - If you prefer not to charge your clients the full service fee upfront, you can accept an initial deposit fee at the time of booking, and receive the rest in person or with an automation to complete the payment after the service is provided.

Streamline your day-to-day business management

Manage staff, schedules, appointments, and more from anywhere. Stay organized by blocking holiday hours, tracking attendance, and managing meeting notes.
