The challenge

The real cost of running a salon on paper and spreadsheets

Without Niimbu

  • You started a salon to create, not to chase payments. Without a system, appointment no-shows cost you. Stylist commissions are calculated manually. Product sales are separate from service revenue.

With Niimbu

  • Niimbu handles appointments, card and transfer payments, product inventory and staff payroll — all from your phone.
Everything included

Questions

Questions salon owners ask

Everything you need to know about running your beauty business on Niimbu.

Is Niimbu the right software for a salon in Nigeria?

Yes. Niimbu handles appointment booking, card and transfer payments, product inventory, staff payroll and client management, all in one account. It works with local banks, supports Naira natively and is built for Nigerian beauty businesses.

How does online appointment booking work?

You set your services, prices, durations and which staff members perform them. Clients get a booking link where they see real-time availability and book directly. Confirmations go out via SMS or WhatsApp and reminders are sent before the appointment.

Can I track which stylist brings in the most revenue?

Yes. Every service, product sale and commission is linked to the staff member who performed it. You see revenue per stylist, per service and per product in your dashboard at any time.

Does Niimbu handle product inventory for beauty shops?

Yes. You track shampoos, treatments, oils and retail items. Stock is updated when a product is used in a service or sold at the counter. Reorder alerts fire when levels fall below the threshold you set.

How do staff commissions work?

You set a commission structure per stylist or per service. When a client pays, the commission is calculated automatically and recorded. Payslips show base salary, commissions and tips, and payment is made from the same Niimbu account.

Can I manage more than one salon branch?

Yes. Each branch has its own calendar, staff and inventory, but everything rolls up into one dashboard. You can compare branches, transfer stock between them and manage staff across locations.

Does it support card payments and bank transfers?

Yes. Niimbu integrates with POS terminals for card payments and supports bank transfers, USSD and payment links. Deposits for online bookings are collected automatically and reconciled.

What does it cost to get started?

Opening an account is free. There is no monthly platform fee. You pay transaction fees only when money moves, client payments, staff payroll and supplier purchases. A quiet month costs nothing.

How long does it take to set up?
