Payments

Connect a payout account on the Payments page. Clients pay your shop directly and payouts go to your bank. You keep your own Stripe account and your own payment relationship.

• Online prepayment when booking
• In person by card, including Tap to Pay on iPhone
• Cash, marked collected at the chair

Turn on 'cash only' if your shop does not take cards; that hides online card payments and deposits. At the chair you charge a card or mark the visit collected for cash.

In the operator app on a supported iPhone, you can take a card by holding it near the top of your phone, no separate reader needed. Choose Tap to Pay on iPhone at checkout and hold the client's card or phone to yours.

Require a deposit to book, either a flat amount or a percent of the service. Online bookings then need a card and collect the deposit up front. It is applied to the bill at the visit, and your shop keeps it on a no-show.

When you settle an appointment you can record a tip alongside the payment, so reporting reflects what each barber actually earned.

The automated Tip Jar texts the client a tip link (Venmo or Cash App) about halfway through their appointment, pre-filled with the barber's handle. Set a barber's method and handle on their profile.
