Demo · Beacon Barbers, Dayton OH · real screens from the product
One shop, five systems. Open any of them:
The line moves, and everyone can see it.
A real walk-in queue on the shop screen and on your phone, with a wait estimate you can say out loud. Nobody stands at the door guessing.
- Who is waiting, and for which chair. Add a walk-in in two taps, from the front desk or the phone in your apron. Next available, or a barber by name.
- A wait time you can stand behind. The estimate comes off your real service times and who is actually in a chair, not a guess taped to the mirror.
- The wait is a number, not a shrug. The estimate adds up the services ahead of them and divides by the chairs actually running, so the answer at the door is one you can stand behind.
- The queue and the book are one thing. A walk-in and a booked client land in the same day, and neither one gets double-sat.
A shop site with the prices out front.
Designed with you, on your own domain, built so the guy searching for a fade at nine on a Saturday finds you and not the shop two blocks over.
- A designer builds it with you. Your services, your prices, your barbers, your hours. A real multi-page site, not a booking link with your logo on it.
- Your own domain, and search finds it. Clients land on your name. When someone nearby searches for a skin fade or a hot towel shave, pages win, link-in-bios do not.
- Walk-ins welcome, out front. The site says it plainly, next to your public prices, instead of hiding how a barbershop actually works.
- Booking on every page. The Book button is always one tap away, and the request lands in your book with a card on file.
Regulars book ahead. Everyone else walks in.
One book holds both, with a card on file, and it will not double-sit a chair.
- For your client: pick the barber, the service and the time, with a card on file to hold it. No phone tag, no messages left on read.
- For you: every request arrives with their details attached, and the whole shop reads one book with statuses you can trust.
- Deposits when you want them. Hold the chair with a card so a no-show costs them something instead of costing you the slot.
- Their history is right there. Guard numbers, the fade they like, the part, how they take the beard. Nobody has to ask twice.
- Want it fully custom? A designer builds your shop site from $349, one time, on the same system. Larger builds are quoted above that.
A client book that fills a quiet Tuesday.
Cut notes, who is due to rebook, who has gone quiet, and the birthdays worth a text this month.
- Cut notes that actually help. Guard number, fade type, beard length and lineup notes, on the record.
- Due and gone-quiet, flagged. A rebook clock and a filter for clients who have drifted, so there is a list to work instead of a guess.
- Win-backs, from the record. A nudge sent in one tap to a client who has drifted, in their thread, on the record.
- Each barber's book stays theirs. In a booth rent shop, the owner sees rent status, not a renter's clients or takings.
Tips, booth rent, and which chair earns.
Checkout with tips on every ticket, booth rent tracked without the group text, and utilization per chair so you know what the shop is actually doing.
- Tips are first class. Every ticket carries its tip, and the week's tips sit beside the week's take instead of living in a jar.
- Booth rent, tracked. Who has paid, who is due, per barber, without chasing anyone in a group chat.
- Chair hours, barber by barber. Booked hours against open hours for the last seven days, so the quiet chair stops being a feeling and starts being a number. Booked hours come from the appointment book; walk-in chair time is not counted yet.
- Instant payout when you want it. Standard payouts are free; same-day money costs 1.5% and only when you ask.
The shop, in your pocket.
The queue, the book and the money from the phone at your station, between cuts.
- For you: move the queue, answer a client, and take a payment before they are out of the chair.
- For your clients: nothing to download, or the Turbo Link app if they'd rather. Booking and their whole history live in the browser, and the link opens right inside Instagram where they found you.
Take the shop on the road, without opening your book.
A wedding party, a team cut, a pop-up: assign the barbers working it to that one job and nothing else.
Invite them by email before they have even made an account. They accept or decline and say when they are free. On the day they work the same checklist, see what to bring, and talk to the rest of the crew in a thread the client never sees. They sign their own paperwork. If the shop is set up as a team, you record what each one is owed and mark it paid inside the job; a solo barber settles up outside the app.
Seven switches, set per person and per job. A barber you brought in for the morning sees the schedule and nothing else. Your regular chair renter sees the client and the timeline but not what the job billed. Your shop manager sees all of it.

Is my client list really mine?
What about barbers who rent a chair?
Do my clients need an app?
Is there a contract?
What happens if I stop paying?
Who owns the domain?
