Clientara vs GlossGenius
The difference is not the feature list. It is who the money belongs to, and whether the software understands how your shop actually works.
| What it costs you | Clientara | GlossGenius |
|---|---|---|
| Cut of each appointment | None — 0% | A percentage of every booking |
| Cut of your tips | None | Often inside their cut |
| Where the money lands | Your own Stripe account | Their account, paid out later |
| Booth rent seats | Each professional pays their own | Usually billed to the owner |
| No-show protection | Included, card on file | Frequently a paid add-on |
| Getting started | Same day — import included | Onboarding call, then a wait |
Clientara takes 0%. Stripe’s standard card fee still applies, as it does on every platform — on Clientara the client-facing price absorbs it, so you collect your full set price. We would rather tell you that than have you find out.
