Retail and backbar: why track both?
Retail makes money at the desk; backbar quietly costs money in every service. Tracking both shows your real margin on a pedicure and tells you when to reorder base coat before a busy weekend, not during it.
Inventory tools a salon actually uses
Barcodes and labels
Scan at checkout. Print your own labels for products that arrive without one.
Lot and expiry
Skincare and lash glue carry a lot number and expiry date.
Suppliers and purchases
Record what you bought, at what cost, from whom.
Transfers between locations
Move ten bottles from the Garden Grove salon to Westminster and both counts update.

Salon ownerWhat is salon retail inventory software?
GetSpaPOSIt tracks the products a salon sells and uses: polish, lotions, cuticle oil, gift sets and the backbar supplies technicians use on clients. GetSpaPOS lowers stock on every sale, warns you before something runs out, and shows which products actually sell.
-
Salon ownerCan I track polish colors separately?
GetSpaPOSYes. A polish line can be one product with variations for each color (and size), so you see stock per color without creating hundreds of separate products.
-
Salon ownerWhat is the difference between retail and backbar?
GetSpaPOSRetail is sold to clients; backbar is used during services. GetSpaPOS can track both, so you know what a pedicure really costs in supplies and when to reorder gel base coat.
-
Salon ownerCan I print barcode labels?
GetSpaPOSYes. Generate barcodes for products that do not have one and print labels on a label printer, then scan at checkout. See the hardware guide for printers that work.
-
Salon ownerDoes it handle expiry dates on skincare?
GetSpaPOSYes. Products can carry lot numbers and expiry dates, and reports show what expires soon so you can sell it first or pull it.
-
Salon ownerCan I move stock between two salons?
GetSpaPOSYes. Stock transfers move products from one location to another and update both counts. Each location keeps its own stock.
-
Salon ownerCan technicians earn commission on retail?
GetSpaPOSYes. Retail can carry its own product commission, separate from service commission, or none at all.
-
Salon ownerDo products show up in my online store?
GetSpaPOSYes. Products with a price and a photo appear on your auto-generated store page, and stock levels keep sold-out items from being ordered. How the store works.
-
Salon ownerCan I record purchases from my supplier?
GetSpaPOSYes. Record purchases from each supplier, with cost and quantity, and stock goes up. Reports then show margin per product.
