Checkout is where small errors become month-end headaches. The Grooming App starts from the services actually performed, applies the tax rate configured for the location, and lets you adjust price, add a discount with a reason, and record the tip.

Pay with one method or several. Cash plus card, a gift card and the remainder on a check: record each tender and watch the balance fall to zero. The Grooming App records what was paid; it works alongside the card terminal you already use.

Checkout & payments

What you can do

Itemized and adjustable

Override a service price for a specific appointment when the coat demands it, and keep the difference visible in reports.

Discounts with a reason

Apply percent or fixed-amount discounts and record why, so nobody has to remember later.

Automatic tax

Tax comes from each location's configured rate, so multi-location businesses stay accurate.

Tip presets

Choose three tip percentages per location, or enter a custom amount.

Split payments

Cash, card, check, gift card and other, in any combination, with Full, Half and Remaining quick-fill.

Voids and refunds

Void a transaction within 24 hours or issue a refund. Every change is recorded with who did it.

Checkout & payments: common questions

Does The Grooming App process card payments?

The Grooming App records card payments and everything else at checkout. Use it alongside your existing card terminal.

Who can void or refund?

Only team members with the matching permission. You can restrict both to managers.
