Tanning salons sell sunbed minutes, packages and memberships, while spray tan artists work from salons or visit clients at home, often booking whole groups before weddings, proms and holidays. Customers come back regularly, and many salons sell lotions and aftercare products at the counter. Busy spells mean lots of quick payments and bookings that need holding with a deposit. A payments app that sells minute packages and memberships by link, takes deposits for group spray tans and lets customers pay by tapping a phone can win these salons, and every customer who pays sees your app.
