Salon POS for the USA, in the language of your floor
The US hair-salon trade is full of first-generation owners: Hispanic salons in Texas, California and New York, Vietnamese-owned salons in Houston and Orange County, Korean-owned salons in Los Angeles, Queens and New Jersey. GetSalonPOS prices in USD with sales tax added at checkout and runs the desk in each of those languages.

Is there support in Spanish?
Yes. Demos and onboarding are available in Spanish, and the software interface and receipts can run in Spanish.
Can my Vietnamese or Korean staff use it?
Yes. Each user picks their own interface language.
Running it
How much is it in the USA?
