kashela

For salon owners

Run the whole salon, from front desk to payroll

Kashela brings booking, check-in, terminal checkout, turns and payroll into one system. Staff get their own app and owners see everything on their phone.

  • Unlimited staff
  • Keep your card terminal
  • Free data import

The headaches Kashela takes off your plate

Each of these used to cost us an hour a day at our own salon.

  • Re-typing amounts into the card machine, books off at close

    Amounts go to the terminal and tips come back to the ticket.

  • Staff arguing over whose turn it is

    A clear turn board shows who is up next.

  • Payroll eats your whole Sunday

    Commission, tips and deductions calculated, staff see their own.

  • Clients book and don't show

    Automatic confirmations and reminders.

  • No idea what's happening when you're away

    Sales, bookings and staff on your phone, any time.

  • Afraid to switch and lose your data

    We import your services, staff and client list for you.

Remote support only when you allow it, with every session logged.

A walk-in queue that is actually fair

One turn board the whole shop can see, updated with every client.

  • Walk-ins who check in on the tablet join the waitlist automatically.
  • See who is serving, who is next and who is on break.
  • Turns are recorded with each ticket so you can review the day.

Payments tied to the ticket

Kashela connects to your card terminal through the payment gateway. The amount goes from the ticket to the terminal, and the result and tip come back to the ticket. No retyping amounts, no end-of-day mismatch.

  • No new hardware. Most popular card terminals connect.
  • Card numbers never touch Kashela. Card data stays in the terminal and the payment processor. Kashela only receives the result.
  • Permissions built in. Refunds and voids need a manager, and every action is logged.

An app for every staff member

Staff handle their own schedule so the owner fields fewer calls.

  • Sign in with phone number and PIN, no email needed.
  • Day and week views: press and drag to move, tap an empty slot to book.
  • Earnings, commission, tips and deductions for each pay period.
  • Instant notifications for new, moved or cancelled bookings.

Everything the front desk needs

The whole business, one system

No more five separate apps for booking, checkout, texting and payroll. Everything works together.

  • Calendar and front desk

    A calendar per staff member with drag-to-reschedule. Book several services with several staff in one go, and set weekly or monthly repeats for regulars.

  • Online booking

    A booking page with your name on it. Clients pick a service, staff member and open time and get confirmed instantly. Installs on their phone like an app.

  • Check-in kiosk

    Clients check in on the tablet with their phone number, earn points and go straight into the waitlist.

  • Waitlist and turns

    See who is up next at a glance. Walk-ins are shared fairly and nobody argues about turns.

  • Checkout and card terminal

    Press pay and the amount appears on the terminal. Clients choose a tip there and the result comes back to the ticket. Card, cash and gift card on one ticket.

  • Commission payroll

    Pay calculated from commission rates, tips and deductions. No more spending Sunday adding up the book.

  • Staff app

    Staff sign in with phone and PIN, see their schedule, book and move appointments, check their pay for the period and get notified about new bookings.

  • Owner app

    Sales, bookings and who is working, any time on your phone. Own several locations? See them all in one place.

  • Reminders

    Automatic confirmations and reminders by text, email and push notification. Fewer no-shows.

  • Loyalty and gift cards

    Points added after every visit, a membership card on the client's phone, and gift cards sold and redeemed at the desk.

  • Reports and closing

    Sales by day and by staff member, plus expenses. Close out the day's card batch in one tap.

  • Permissions and security

    Owners, managers, cashiers and staff each see only their part. Refunds need a manager and important actions are logged.

Owners often ask

My card terminal is from another payment company. Will it work?

In most cases, yes. Send us your payment company and terminal model and we will confirm the same day.

Does Kashela store my clients' card numbers?

No. Card numbers and security codes stay in the card terminal and the payment processor. Kashela only receives the amount, tip, transaction ID and last 4 digits for the receipt.

Can you move my client list from my old software?

Yes. Send your client list (Excel or CSV) and we import it for free before you go live.

What is a Kashela payment partner?

A card processing company that works with Kashela. When your shop processes cards through a partner, the Basic plan is free. We review your current card fees and quote the new rate before you switch, so you can decide.

What if I keep my own payment processor?

You can still use Kashela on the Pro plan at $49 per location per month. The free Basic plan applies only when you process cards through a Kashela partner.

Do I need to buy new equipment?

No. Kashela runs in the browser on the computers, tablets and phones you already have. A check-in tablet is optional.

What if the internet goes down?

Your card terminal keeps taking cards. When you are back online, enter the tickets. Kashela runs on Cloudflare, so the system itself rarely goes down.

Can I try it before signing up?

Yes. Open the live demo at demo.kashela.com, enter your name and industry and you get your own sample business for 48 hours, no card needed.
