SalonBiz review

SalonBiz is aimed at multi-stylist salons that care about commission payroll and retail numbers. Pricing starts at $160 a month and depends on team size rather than features: Basic covers 2 to 5 service providers, Essential 6 to 12 and Premium 13 or more, with staff added in blocks of 10 for $55 a month beyond 20 on Premium. Using SalonBiz Payments lowers the subscription by $25 a month on Basic, $35 on Essential and $45 on Premium. The POS takes card-on-file, swipe, chip, Apple Pay and Google Pay from the chair, and SalonBiz surcharging adds a small Visa and Mastercard compliant fee to offset card costs. Reports cover retail sales per ticket, commissions and client retention, and inventory sends reorder reminders. Aveda and Bumble and Bumble salons get direct ordering and Aveda Plus Rewards integration. The downsides are a high entry price, quote-based plan prices and an interface aimed at larger teams.
