Good to know

  • You are the merchant of record. Online money goes through the one gateway of your install and is paid out to salons, so salons cannot connect their own Stripe account.
  • Card terminals are recorded, not integrated. The till notes a card payment taken on a terminal; it does not talk to the terminal.
  • There is no card-on-file no-show fee. Deposits are supported; charging a saved card after a no-show is not.
  • Auto-renew on a real gateway needs developer work. Memberships and salon subscriptions renew by a pay link and a grace period by default; charging a saved card automatically on a real gateway needs buyer work.
  • Stripe refunds have no idempotency key yet. A gateway timeout after a refund was accepted can be retried, so review retried refunds before you take real card payments.
  • The staff app needs a connection. Visits, stages and the till are written on the server as they happen.
  • One currency per install.
  • SMS reminders are only logged. They are written to the log and not sent.
  • "Add to calendar" copies the .ics text. The client app has no share sheet for it.
  • Desk booking is in /business, not the staff app. The staff app has no booking endpoint.
  • The apps were tested on simulators only. They were not run on physical devices, and the Android and iOS builds are debug builds.
  • Payments, SMS and push are simulated by default. The simulated gateway works out of the box. Real gateway drivers were not run against real accounts, and real push was not exercised.
  • Arabic has not been reviewed by a native speaker.
  • Use MySQL or MariaDB on a live site. Tests run on SQLite, where row locks do nothing; the concurrency checks run on MySQL 8.
  • Name: Balayo is a working name checked by a web search only, not a trademark clearance. Check it before you launch under it.
  • No hosted demo. Every salon, client and record in the screenshots is fictional. The photos are free-licence stock photos and are credited in the package.
