Point of sale

A nail salon POS system that knows who did the work

Every line assigned to the technician who performed it, commission split as the day closes, and a walk-in queue that quotes an honest wait.

Most registers sold to nail salons are retail registers with a service menu bolted on. They record what was sold. They do not record who earned it, which is the number the whole shop runs on — and so the commission split gets rebuilt by hand every week from a stack of tickets and somebody’s memory.

Sonorch POS attributes every line to the technician who performed it, totals commission and tips per person at close of day, and takes walk-ins at the door without anyone leaving the chair. It is the same register that runs restaurant floors — salon mode and restaurant mode are the same software — but this page is about the salon half.

Built for the floor

What a nail salon needs that a general register does not

Two technicians, one ticket

A client has a pedicure with one person and a manicure with another, and it is one payment. Every line is assigned to the technician who performed it, so the split is right without anybody reconstructing the day from memory. This is the thing a general retail register cannot do at all: it knows the sale, not who earned it.

Commission totalled at close, not on a Sunday

Commission and tip splits per person — who earned what, who keeps what — totalled as the day closes. Export as CSV or PDF, or email it to your bookkeeper. The arithmetic that eats a weekend is the arithmetic the register already did.

Walk-ins are the business, not an exception

A tablet at the door takes walk-ins, puts them in the queue in the right order, and quotes an honest wait without anyone leaving the chair. Appointment salons treat the queue as an edge case. For most nail salons it is the floor.

Add-ons on the service line

Length, shape, art, repairs, gel removal — priced as modifiers on the service rather than as separate products that break the commission split. Services, add-ons and retail sit on one ticket.

A menu that leads with your own photography

Clients choose nail work by picture, not by name. The menu leads with your service photos, which is also the fastest way for a new technician to ring up something they have not done before.

The tip goes to the person who earned it

Percentage or custom, chosen by the customer on the device rather than asked out loud. Tips land against the technician instead of a shared jar and a guess at the end of the night.

And the rest of the shop

The parts that are not about nails specifically

Staff sign in as themselves with a PIN, so sales, voids and tips are attributed and permissions match the role rather than the device. The client book is built from completed sales rather than a mailing list — visits, lifetime spend, average ticket and each client’s usual gap between visits, with at-risk, lapsed, VIP and new segments worked out from their own rhythm instead of a fixed rule.

Loyalty points, discount codes and gift cards are redeemed at the register and counted. Reporting covers revenue, utilisation, what actually sells and who sells it, by day, week or month and by staff member. And the register keeps taking orders and cash with no connection at all.

Straight answers

Where this is not the right choice yet

We make this product. So rather than ask you to trust a page written by the seller, here are the three reasons a nail salon might reasonably buy something else. If one of them is a dealbreaker, better you know now.

Card payments run on a Zettle reader

Card present goes through a Zettle reader today. If you are committed to a different processor, ask us where that stands before you switch — we would rather tell you now than after.

It books into the Sonorch calendar

The register, the book and the phone are one system, which is the point of it. If you are staying on a third-party booking platform, that integration is a conversation rather than a checkbox.

We are newer than the names you know

Shorter track record than the incumbents. What we can offer against that is a live line you can call before you buy, rather than a demo we control.

Hear it before you buy it. The phone line is live on 941-430-4049 — call it, ask for an appointment, and watch it check a real calendar. For the register, ask for a walkthrough on your own service menu.
