A nail salon POS system for the way nail salons run.
Walk-ins, turns, two technicians on one client, a tip to split and a color to sell. GetSpaPOS was designed around that ticket.
Built for the salons that make up the trade
Most US nail salons are independent, run by owners who also work a chair, with a team of five to fifteen technicians and a large share of walk-ins. Many owners and technicians speak Vietnamese first; in New York and New Jersey many owners are Korean-American, and Spanish-speaking technicians work across the country.
Industry background: Colorlines, citing Nails Magazine data.
Screens in their languageTiếng Việt, 한국어, Español and more, per person.
Unlimited techniciansFrom the Salon plan at $79 a month.
Walk-ins firstThe turn list is on the home screen, not hidden in a menu.
A nail salon day, step by step.
- 1
Before 10 am: the turn list is set
Technicians clock in, the turn list follows clock-in order, and today's bookings are already on the calendar. The front desk tablet is the whiteboard now.
- 2
Rush hour: walk-ins and bookings together
Walk-ins go to whoever is next and free. Booked clients go to their technician. Polish changes count as half a turn if that is your rule.
- 3
Checkout: two techs, one tip, one gift card
Pedicure and manicure by different technicians, a tip split by service value, part paid with a gift card, the rest by card through your processor.
- 4
Retail at the desk
The client buys the color she loved. Stock drops, the tech gets product commission if you pay it, and the receipt prints in her language.
- 5
Close-out: drawer, tips, commission
Close the register, pay out the day's card tips in cash if that is how you do it, and the week's commission is ready for payroll.
