In their own words
inyad
inyad is spa-management software for spas and wellness centers, including operators with multiple locations. It brings appointment booking, room and therapist scheduling, treatments, retail stock, staff, payments, and reporting into one system. Separate calendars help plan room and therapist use, while guests can book online and pay a deposit; gift cards can be sold at the counter or through payment links. Packages and memberships deduct a visit from a balance that staff can see at the desk. The inventory system tracks oils and cosmetics used in services or sold in the spa. Reports cover room occupancy, treatment revenue, and therapist activity and can be viewed on a phone in real time. Appointments, checkout, and payments are described as continuing offline and syncing when internet returns. Booking is available through Android and a browser-based web app. The Morocco price listings include inyad Pay at free while processing payments, with a separately purchased terminal and one-time activation fee, and inyad POS starting at 149 MAD a month.
Salonist
Salonist is cloud-based salon management software covering bookings, point of sale, inventory, staff, marketing and memberships. It works on web and mobile without installation. Clients can book at any time through a website, Instagram or the Salonist app, with automatic reminders and options for recurring or package bookings. Its integrated POS supports card, contactless and Stripe terminal payments, bulk checkout, payment reports and stock updates. The service targets businesses ranging from hair salons, massage centers and spas to barbershops, nail salons, aesthetic skin clinics and pet groomers. Salonist lists more than 40 integrations, including Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, Clover, QuickBooks and Authorize.Net. The free Market Place Listing plan includes 50 appointments per month. Essential costs $59.00 per month, Advance costs $109.00 per month and Expert costs $179.00 per month. Expert includes a custom-branded client app published under the salon's name. A 15% commission applies once to the first visit from a new client discovered through its marketplace; returning-client and direct bookings do not incur that fee.
