For hairdressers, nail techs, lash artists, barbers and beauticians

Your salon business practically runs itself.

Bookings, payments, clients and social posts — all from one app, in your pocket. Your customers get YOUR app on their phone, with your name and your colours on it. Pocket handles the admin in between.

Built to be trusted with your business

  • Payments secured by Stripe — Card details never touch us. Stripe handles them, as they do for millions of businesses.
  • Your client list stays yours — We never market to your customers. They are your clients, not ours.
  • Export your data any time — Clients, bookings and takings. If you leave, you take everything with you.
  • Nothing to install or set up — It works in the browser on the phone already in your pocket.

Your customers get your app.

Not a link to our website with your logo on it. Your clients tap "add to home screen" and your salon sits on their phone next to Instagram — your name, your colours, opening straight on your booking page.

  • Installs from the browser. Nothing to download, no App Store, no approval to wait for.
  • Opens full screen, like any other app. No address bar, no browser tabs.
  • Works on iPhone and Android from the same address.
  • Update it by changing your branding — every client sees it next time they open it.

You get the same thing: the salon side installs on your phone too.

From Instagram to paid appointment.

You do the work. myPocketSalon handles the bits in between.

  1. They find you — Your own salon page, and social posts written for you.
  2. They book you — A diary that knows your real hours and never double-books.
  3. They pay you — Card up front or a deposit, plus a till for cash on the day.
  4. They come back — Reminders before, and a nudge when a regular goes quiet.
  5. They tell their friends — Referrals that reward the client who sent them.

Ask Pocket

Pocket takes care of the boring stuff. Just tell it what you want.

  • “Post my free appointments this weekend”
  • “Who has not booked again this month?”

  • “How much did I earn this month?”
  • “Make a comeback offer for my regulars”

Who has not booked again this month?

Eight clients who normally come back every 4–6 weeks are overdue. Want me to send them a comeback offer?

Who it is for

  • Barbers — Walk-ins and regulars, on a rota that fits a busy chair.
  • Beauticians — Treatment menus, consultations and packages in one place.
  • Mobile therapists — Travel time between clients, built into your availability.

Questions

What does it cost to start?
Nothing. There is no subscription and no setup fee. We take 7.5% of payments taken through myPocketSalon, and nothing at all on tips — you can record a tip worth as much as the service itself and it reaches you whole. If you take no money through it, you pay nothing.
Do I need a website already?
No — your booking page is the website. You get your own address at yourname.mypocketsalon.app as soon as you sign up, and you can point your own domain at it later.
When do I get my money?
Card payments are held for 7 days after the appointment, then paid to your own bank account on whatever schedule you choose. The wait is what protects you if a customer disputes a payment. Need it sooner? Take an instant payout for a small fee.
Is there a limit on tips?
A tip can be as large as the service itself, and every penny of it is yours — we take no fee on tips at all. The limit exists only because tips carry no fee: without it, a £1 service with a £99 "tip" would be a way to take £100 and pay us almost nothing. If a client is unusually generous, ring the work up at what it was really worth and put the tip on top.
Can my clients still just message me?
Of course. You can add appointments yourself in seconds, and walk-ins can be rung up on the spot on the till.
What if I have staff?
Invite them and choose what each person may do — take bookings, manage clients, handle payments, or run the whole salon.
What happens to my clients if I leave?
You export them and go. There is no contract and no notice period. Your client list is yours, and we never contact your customers ourselves.
