Salon POS software can bring checkout and operational needs into view together. The ranking opens with Fresha, Salonist, and DaySmart Salon. Compare online booking and retail inventory alongside tip management and commission tracking to see which listed capabilities fit your salon’s workflows. Gift cards may also be worth considering for how you handle sales, while multi-location support matters if your business spans more than one site. Free plan availability and the Paid from details give you pricing points to compare with those features. GlossGenius, Mangomint, SQUIRE, and Booksy appear among the next entries, offering additional options to weigh against the same criteria.
