How it works
From your link to your bank, in one flow.
No front desk, no countertop terminal, no CRM to wrangle. Five quiet acts, from the booking link in your bio to a payout in your account.
Add a service. Connect Stripe. Share the link.
Three short moves and your booking page is live on your goldenhour link. Your own domain can come later on the paid plan, and most artists finish before the kettle's cold.
- 1Add a service. Name it, price it, set the hours you actually work.
- 2Connect Stripe. Deposits, payouts, and at-the-door payments switch on together.
- 3Share your booking link. Drop it in your bio and the calendar starts filling.
They pick a time. The deposit's already in.
Your link does the front-desk work. Clients choose a slot, drop their address, and a deposit holds it — the travel fee for their zone is added automatically, so the price they see is the price you meant.
- Deposit held the moment they book — no-shows stop costing you the drive.
- Travel fee priced in at checkout — no “where are you based?” texts.
Open the app. Your day's already sorted.
Who's next, where they are, what they booked — the Today screen lines up your stops and keeps the day moving leave. Navigate, message, and get paid without ever leaving the visit.
- Next-up routing: your stops in order, address one tap away.
- Navigate or message in a tap — the address is already there.
The right message, the right hour.
Prep tonight, rinse at four, rebook later. Each text goes out on its own, on the timer you set. Clients tap to confirm, so you know they're ready before you pull up.
- Templates tuned to your craft — and your wording, if you'd rather.
- Tap-to-confirm prep; reply STOP anytime — consent handled for you.
Tap their card. The receipt sends itself.
Balance and tip clear at the door with Tap to Pay on iPhone, a pocket-size reader or a scan-to-pay QR code. The receipt goes out on its own, and the payment heads to your bank on Stripe's regular payout schedule. 0% commission; card processing fees only.
- Balance and tip captured at the door: Tap to Pay on iPhone, pocket reader or QR, their choice.
- Payouts land straight in your bank about two days after each sale, nothing skimmed on top.

01 · IVR WHEN PEOPLE CALL
A real studio phone menu that routes calls and texts back automatically.
When a client calls while you are mid-session, your studio number plays a greeting you can customize using your own voice, then lets callers press a key for an instant booking text, membership pricing, voicemail transcription, or call forwarding to your cell with salon caller ID.
- Customize the greeting using your own voice (record or upload audio)
- Press 1 texts your booking link in seconds
- Press 2 rings your cell with salon caller ID, and voicemail picks up if you can't
