Local guide
Running a salon in Glasgow
Hair and beauty businesses in Glasgow work around residents' diaries, student routines and the city's working population. The West End and Dennistoun are among the areas where students living away from home reside. Across Glasgow, finance, commerce, education and media contribute to a varied customer base. For a salon, that can mean regular maintenance appointments alongside treatments booked around lectures, working days or an evening out in the city.
Appointments create payment needs before the visit as well as when a treatment finishes. Pay by Link lets a Glasgow salon send deposit requests by text or email for bookings. Teya Pro supports on-screen tipping and prints receipts, while pocket-sized Teya Lite can be carried to the client and provides digital receipts. Owners can see sales and transactions in the Teya app and portal, where staff can also be set up.
A deposit before the appointment
A student living in the West End phones to arrange a longer salon appointment around their studies. If your booking policy includes a deposit, send a Pay by Link request by text or email. The client can pay remotely, and you can view the transaction in the Teya app or portal.
Finishing at the styling chair
A Dennistoun client has finished a treatment and is ready to pay before gathering their belongings. Bring Teya Pro to them for contactless, chip and PIN or a mobile wallet payment. On-screen tipping lets the client choose whether to add a tip, and the built-in printer provides a paper receipt.
Payments during visiting appointments
A hair or beauty practitioner providing an appointment at a Glasgow client's home wants to accept contactless payment without carrying another device. Tap to Pay works through the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone. It requires no extra hardware, making it an option for payments away from a salon reception.
