”Payment security is important in the salon industry, that is why we have prioritized ensuring that our Card Reader Integration meets the highest standards of encryption and payment data protection”

Salon owners may assure their clients that their payment information is safeguarded at every step of the checkout process.

The process to integrate the Stripe card reader with Salonist:

  • Go to Settings, then select API Keys.
  • Click on Generate Key to create a new key for the desired mode.
  • Copy the API key & secret key from Stripe and paste them into the right fields in Salonist. Then, click Save to apply the changes.

  • Generate a test bill to ensure that the integration is working correctly.

Benefits of the card reader integration include:

  • Security- Stripe card reader integration enhances payment security by encrypting transactions and reducing the risk of fraudulent activities. Thus, this ensures clients’ financial information remains protected.
  • Convenience- Clients may easily pay for services using their credit or debit cards, which terminates the need for cash transactions. This convenience improves customer experience & encourages repeat business.
  • Increase in average booking value- Accepting card payments may encourage clients to spend more on additional beauty services. This leads to an increase in the average booking value for salons. 

With instant payouts, salon owners may now receive funds in just a few minutes through Stripe, instead of waiting for days or months. This helps self-employed providers in managing a consistent cash flow, which provides the essential tools for scaling and expanding their business.
