GlossGenius Review
All-in-one booking, payments and marketing app built for beauty and wellness pros.
Our verdict
GlossGenius is the most polished option for image-conscious beauty pros: flat 2.6% processing, fast payouts and a genuinely nice client booking flow. It costs more than Setmore or Fresha's entry plan and won't send you new clients the way a marketplace does. Best when your book is already mostly full and you want to look premium while keeping processing costs predictable.
Best for Established solo stylists and small salon teams who process a lot of card volume
