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. Newark salons can use these tools to help reduce avoidable empty slots and make income easier to manage.
