Revenue protection for hair salons
Hair salon booking software for Birkenhead — protect your diary from no-shows
Velixa combines card-on-file protection for online bookings with Configured email reminders — so your Birkenhead team can focus on the work rather than routine appointment chasing.
No charge during your free trial. Cancel any time.
Clear booking terms and reliable scheduling tools can help salons manage their diaries. Velixa lets eligible online customers save a card and digitally accept your cancellation terms. Configured email reminders give clients a chance to manage their schedule responsibly, with optional paid SMS reminders available only when enabled and funded. When a no-show does happen, staff can apply the configured policy from the dashboard and collect from a saved card where applicable. Birkenhead salons can use these tools to help reduce avoidable empty slots and make income easier to manage.
