Deposits & payments

Get paid before the needle goes in.

Quotes go out with a pay link. Deposits, balances and vouchers land in your own Stripe account. We never hold your money and never take a cut.

Deposits that chase themselves

Send a quote with a deposit link. The client pays by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, or pays in full with Klarna, and the reminders stop the moment they do.

  • Money goes straight to your own Stripe
  • Klarna for paying in full
  • Balance reminders after the session

Questions

Do you take a percentage of my deposits?+

No. Payments go to your own Stripe account. Stripe charges its normal card fee and we add nothing on top.

Do I need a Stripe account?+

You connect one in a few minutes from Settings. If you don't have one yet, you create it as part of connecting.
