For barbershops

You keep 100% of every cut
Most booking platforms quietly take a slice of each appointment. We take none. One flat monthly price, and every dollar — services, tips, retail — lands in your own Stripe account rather than ours.
No-shows stop being free
Set a cancellation window and a fee, and a card is kept on file at booking. When someone ghosts a 2pm fade, you charge the fee from your phone in two taps instead of writing off the chair time.
Booth rent and commission, both done properly
On booth rent each barber buys their own seat on their own card, so you are never fronting software for someone who might leave next month. Commission shops pay one flat rate and the whole team is covered.
Taking bookings the same day
Bring your clients and services over from Square or Booksy in a few minutes, set your hours, share your link. No onboarding call, no setup fee, nobody to wait on.
Why barbershops move to Clientara
The difference is not features. It is who the money belongs to, and whether the software understands that a booth-rent shop and a commission shop are not the same business.
| What it costs you | Clientara | Typical platform |
|---|---|---|
| Cut of each appointment | None — 0% | A percentage of every booking |
| Cut of your tips | None | Often included in their cut |
| Where the money lands | Your own Stripe account | Their account, paid out later |
| Booth rent seats | Each barber pays their own | Usually billed to the owner |
| No-show fees | Included, card on file | Frequently a paid add-on |
| Getting started | Same day, import included | Onboarding call, then a wait |
Clientara takes 0%, though Stripe’s standard card processing fee still applies — as it does on every platform. We would rather tell you that than have you find out.
Selling retail over the counter as well? The point of sale is included — cuts and product on one ticket, paid by QR on the client’s own phone.

Questions barbers actually ask
Do you take a percentage of my sales?
No. Clientara is a flat monthly subscription and we never take a cut of a service, a tip, or a retail sale. Card payments go straight into your own Stripe account, so the only fee on a transaction is Stripe's standard processing rate — the same rate you would pay on any platform.
How does this work if my barbers rent their chairs?
Booth rent is built in rather than bolted on. You pay a low base for the shop at $39.99 a month, and each barber pays $15.99 for their own seat on their own card. Everyone gets their own calendar, their own services, and their own payouts.
