The POS system for hair and beauty businesses

One that doesn't separate the appointment from the till. In a salon, revenue hangs off the calendar: booked appointments, walk-ins in between and retail sales at the counter. OrderRight covers all three in one sale, assigns every service to a member of staff and records it in line with TSE and GoBD. Features from hospitality that you'd never need in a salon stay out of the way. The system is set up at your place, on site, not by self-installation.

Yes, and precisely because of the long treatment times. In a nail salon a full set quickly blocks two hours at the station – the treatment duration is stored in the calendar, the slot is blocked accordingly and never given out twice online. Extra services you book onto the sale in progress during the treatment. At the end, the receipt shows the service and the care products sold with the correct VAT rates. If somebody still drops in spontaneously, you enter the sale straight at the till.

Yes. In a barbershop most people come without an appointment, and a sale rarely takes more than a couple of minutes. That's exactly why you enter the service straight at the till, assign it to the barber who's free and take a contactless payment. Anyone who does book ahead lands in the same calendar. Appointments and walk-ins sit together in the end-of-day close, with no separate count. Tips and card payments run along in the same short sale.

Yes. Through your web shop, customers pick a member of staff, a date and a time from the free slots and get a confirmation – at night and on a Sunday too. The availability you've stored for your team is taken into account, and the appointment appears in the calendar at the till immediately. That takes away the calls that otherwise ring in the middle of a treatment. If somebody cancels, you free the slot up again in the calendar.

Every treatment and every product sold hangs off the person who delivered it. In your reports you see revenue, utilisation and the share from retail per member of staff – up to date the same day, not only after the monthly close. That gives you a solid basis for commission, without sorting receipts or keeping tally lists. It's the end of estimating commission at the end of the month.

Yes. Service and goods land on one receipt with the correct VAT rate for each, and with a barcode scanner you ring up shampoo or cosmetics as fast as a treatment. You sell gift cards and stored-value cards at the till and redeem them later, across locations if you run more than one. Loyalty points are credited automatically on every visit, and you set the multiplier and the redemption threshold yourself. All of it sits in the same sale, so you don't switch programs for it.

If you use an electronic till, yes. The TSE and GoBD requirements apply whatever your industry – in a Kassennachschau, an unannounced cash register inspection, a salon gets checked just like a restaurant. OrderRight meets these rules, logs every sale and hands the data to your tax adviser through the DATEV interface. You don't have to set anything up on top of that. Beyond the Kassennachschau, your data is also ready for a full tax audit.

The switch itself takes a day. We migrate customer data, services with prices and your range from the old system, enter appointments that are already booked into the new calendar and set the till up on site. Training happens right at reception – whether it's a beauty studio with two stations or a bigger salon, the routine is the same. If something doesn't run smoothly in the first few days, you reach support directly.
