Free for 14 days. No card to start.

A booking menu that works like your price list

  • Services in groups such as Manicures, Pedicures, Gel and Acrylics, each with a price and how long it takes.
  • Prices that vary. Mark a price as a starting price and clients see “$45+” instead of a fixed number.
  • A price and length for each technician, for when one tech is faster or charges more for a full set.
  • Prep and clean-up time before and after a service, so nobody is booked into the minutes you need to reset the station.
  • Paste your menu. Quick add reads a price list the way you already write it (“from $45”, “1 hr 30 min”) and turns it into services you can check and save.

Walk-ins and a busy front desk

  • Add a walk-in straight onto the calendar.
  • See the day or the week across every technician. Each tech can sign in and see their own column; owners see everything.
  • When a time is full, clients can join the waitlist. When someone cancels, waiting clients are emailed a link to book it.
  • Print the day for the front desk.

Fewer empty chairs

  • Every client gets a confirmation email with a private link to reschedule or cancel online, up to the cutoff you set.
  • A reminder email goes out before the appointment, a day ahead by default (you can choose 2 hours to a week).
  • Your late-cancellation and no-show fees are shown before clients book, and they accept your rules to confirm. Fees are collected at the salon; online deposits are coming soon.

Reminders are sent by email. Chairday does not send text messages.

A page for your salon

You also get a page at chairday.app/your-salon with your menu, team, hours, photos and a map, and a Book button on every section. Link it from Instagram and Google, or print a counter sign with a QR code clients scan to book. See a sample page.

Questions

Can clients choose their nail technician?

Yes. Clients pick a technician or choose “Anyone available”. Each technician can have their own price and length for a service.

Do you send text message reminders?

No. Confirmations and reminders are sent by email. You choose how many hours before the appointment the reminder goes out.

Can I take a deposit for acrylic sets?

Not yet; online deposits are coming soon. For now, set a late-cancellation fee and a no-show fee in your booking rules. Clients see them before they book, and you collect them at the salon.

What does it cost?

$10 a month per location, or $100 a year. That includes every technician, every booking and no booking fees. The first 14 days are free and you don’t need a card to start.
