Up to 35%
taken by the big marketplaces on a new client’s first booking, then again each time they rebook through the app.
For independent hair, wellness & beauty pros
Smarter software,
stronger business.
Everything you need to run the business, from your diary and clients to staff, payments and reporting. Add online booking whenever you want it. No commission, ever.
The problem
You built the relationship.
They rent it back to you.
Most software for independents is a marketplace in disguise. It charges you to reach your own clients, then keeps the relationship for itself.
Their list
is where your client records sit. Leave the platform and the relationship does not always come with you.
Two thirds
of UK clients want to book outside opening hours. A phone-only diary sends them to whoever is open at 11pm.
Salono vs a marketplace
Two very different deals.
A marketplace makes its money from your bookings. We make ours from a flat subscription, and nothing else. That one difference changes everything.

Why Salono
Not a software company
guessing at your week.
Built from inside the industry
We come from the salon floor. The daily challenges are not research for us, they are background. Salono is the software we wished we had.
Designed against the admin
Every feature exists to take a job off your evening. Less reception, fewer spreadsheets, less chasing. More chair time, more clients, more revenue.
Shaped by independent owners
The roadmap is what owners ask for, in the order they ask for it. Your feedback decides what ships next, not what looks good in a deck.
Built by a hairdresser and an engineer. Meet the founders
Support
Real people who know the floor.
When something needs sorting, you reach a person who understands what your day actually looks like, not a ticket queue and a help centre that never read your question. That is hard to find on other platforms. With us, it is the whole point.
Our support promiseAn industry-focused team
People who have worked the floor, not a call centre reading from a script.
On hand Monday to Saturday
9am to 5pm UK time, with someone who actually answers.
99.9% uptime, in writing
A formal service-level agreement, with service credits if we ever fall short.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Q. Does Salono charge commission on bookings?
A.
No. You pay one flat fee per business, per month, plus a small fee for each extra team member. We never take a percentage of your bookings, and we never sit between you and your money.
Q. Is there a free trial?
A.
Better. Your first month is free, with full access to every feature, so you can see exactly how Salono works for your business. After that, it is one flat fee per business, per month, with one user and SMS reminders included.
Q. Are there any contracts?
A.
No. Rolling monthly subscription. Cancel any time from your account settings. Your data is yours and we keep it safe for thirty days in case you change your mind.
Q. Is Salono a marketplace?
A.
No. Your clients book directly with you, on your domain, with your branding. There are no competitor listings, no "you might also like", no marketplace sitting between you and the people who pay you.
Q. Will my clients see Salono branding?
A.
The booking experience is fully white-label. Your name, your colours, your domain. A small "Powered by Salono" line appears at the bottom of the widget. That is it.
Q. How does switching from another platform work?
A.
We move it for you, free. You grab whatever export your current platform allows, and we extract, clean, map and verify your clients, services and bookings into Salono, then go live on a date that suits. We will walk you through the whole thing.
