Local guide
Running a salon in Portsmouth
Hair and beauty appointments in Portsmouth fit around residential life, work and evenings out. Much of the city occupies Portsea Island, and its economy has a longstanding connection with the naval base. Southsea's Kings Theatre hosts amateur musicals and national tours, while Portsea has the Groundlings Theatre. For salons and beauty businesses, that creates scope for regular maintenance appointments alongside clients booking a treatment or styling before a planned occasion.
Payment arrangements need to reflect the appointment, not just the moment a client reaches reception. Pay by Link lets you request a booking deposit by text, email or QR code. Teya Pro supports on-screen tipping and printed receipts at checkout, while pocket-sized Teya Lite suits taking payment beside the chair and provides digital receipts. You can view transactions in the Teya app and portal, where staff can also be set up.
Styling before a theatre evening
A client books a Southsea styling appointment before an evening at the Kings Theatre. If you require a deposit, send a Pay by Link request when arranging the appointment. At the end of the visit, Teya Pro can take the payment at reception and lets the client choose an on-screen tip.
Finishing payment beside the chair
In a Portsea salon, a client is ready to pay while reception is being used for another consultation. Carry Teya Lite to the chair rather than moving the client to the desk. The device is pocket-sized, connects through Wi-Fi and 4G, and provides digital receipts without needing a printer.
Appointments around working commitments
A Portsmouth client fitting treatments around work connected with the naval base books their next appointment by phone. Agree the appointment details separately, then use Pay by Link for any required deposit. The request can go by text or email, with the resulting transaction available to view in the Teya app or portal.

Questions from Portsmouth hair & beauty salons
Can my Southsea salon request a deposit before an appointment?
Yes. Pay by Link lets you send a deposit request by text or email, or use a QR code. That suits a Southsea salon arranging appointments in advance, including styling before a Kings Theatre visit. You can view the transaction in the app or portal.
Can clients tip on the machine at my Portsea beauty business?
Teya Pro supports on-screen tipping, so clients can choose that option when paying for their treatment. It also includes a receipt printer. If your Portsea business prefers payments beside the treatment chair with digital receipts, pocket-sized Teya Lite is another device to consider.
