For salons, barbers and small retail

Small retail and personal services have the opposite problem to a restaurant: fewer transactions, but each one is personal, and the customer is standing in front of you while you handle the money. The awkward parts are the tip and the review, and both can be handled by a screen.

What usually goes wrong

  • 1

    Payment happens on a card reader balanced on the desk, and the tip question has to be asked out loud by the person who just did the work.

  • 2

    Every customer who leaves happy is a review you never get, because asking feels like fishing for a compliment.

  • 3

    Product sales are rung up by hunting through a list, so the retail shelf never quite gets counted properly.

What we install

A typical salon setup runs about $900 installed, with no monthly fee unless you want support.

The screen asks for the tip, not the stylist. It also shows the service and product total before the card is tapped.

Review Stand (NFC + QR)

$199for 3 stands

One stand at the front desk, where the customer is already standing still and looking at their own haircut.

Next to the mirror or the product shelf, for the people photographing the result anyway.

How the day changes

The appointment finishes, the customer walks to the desk, and the service is already on the screen facing them with the retail shampoo added. They see the total, the screen offers the tip, and nobody has to say the word out loud.

While the card is processing they are looking straight at a stand that asks for a review. They tap it, write two lines about the person who just cut their hair, and leave. Over a quarter, that is the difference between forty reviews and four.
