Barbershop Manager
What it is
Barbershop Manager combines a check-in kiosk, live waiting list, barber and customer apps, checkout, and a shop website for barbershops running walk-in service. Customers can enter a name and phone number at the kiosk, choose a barber or the first available, and receive a text ticket showing their place in line. Website check-ins join the same live list. Individual barber logins support taking customers, setting availability, recording services and tips, and viewing daily totals. The owner dashboard shows service revenue, tips, customer count, and totals for each barber. Customer follow-up includes branded text receipts, next-up alerts, return reminders, win-back messages, review links, and birthday gift cards. Plans include 500 SMS per month; extra credits cost 2¢ per text with a 1,000-text minimum, and the trial includes 100 SMS. The service runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Pricing starts at $15/mo, and a free trial is offered, but there is no free plan. Check-In Station hardware is listed to ship January 2027; shops can use an existing tablet in the meantime.
