Client CRM
Every walk-in becomes a known, returning client
CheckIn is a client CRM that builds itself from your queue: every check-in creates or updates one client record, with visit history, stats, and loyalty status, across all of your locations.
Most salons have no client list, just a busy day they forget
A walk-in rush feels productive, then it is gone. The faces blur together, the paper sign-in sheet goes in a drawer, and by next week you cannot say who came in twice or who you never saw again. The clients were there. The record was not.
The usual fix is worse: a front desk that has to stop and type a new customer profile mid-rush, the same person entered three different ways (one as a phone number, one as a nickname, one misspelled), and a salon-wide list that is really five separate lists that never agree with each other.
CheckIn closes that gap. Because the queue is the front door, the client database is a byproduct of running your day. You do not build a CRM. You run your salon, and the CRM is already there.
How the CRM builds itself
There is no create-a-customer step. Every record starts at check-in and grows on its own.
- 1
A client checks in
A walk-in joins the queue at the kiosk, on their phone, or at the front desk. That single action either matches an existing client or creates a fresh record. Nobody types a separate profile.
- 2
We match before we create
CheckIn normalizes the phone number and email, then checks for the same person before making a new entry, so one client does not become five near-duplicate records.
- 3
The visit is logged
When the visit completes, it is added to that client's history with the service, the staff member, and the date, so the timeline fills in automatically.
- 4
Stats update in the background
Visit counts and engagement roll up on the profile as people return, so you can see your regulars without running a report.
- 5
Loyalty and reputation attach
If the client is enrolled, their loyalty status sits on the same record, and reputation fields are ready for a review workflow when you turn it on.
- 6
It stays one identity everywhere
Across every location you run, the client is one person with one record, while each shop keeps its own activity tracked separately.
What lives on every client record
One profile per person, kept clean and current without manual upkeep.
One identity across all locations
A client is a single record for your whole business, not a fresh stranger at each salon. One person, one profile, no matter which location they walk into.
Per-shop activity, tracked separately
The shared identity does not blur your numbers. Each location keeps its own visit activity for that client, so a regular at one salon is not double-counted at another.
Visit history per client
Every completed visit lands on a timeline: what they had done, who served them, and when, so any team member can pick up the relationship instead of starting cold.
Client stats that build over time
Visit counts and engagement update as people return, so it is obvious at a glance who your regulars are and who has not been back in a while.
Phone and email de-duplication
Numbers and emails are normalized and matched, so the same person does not splinter into five records. One client stays one client.
Loyalty status on the profile
Loyalty enrollment lives right on the client record, so you can see who is in the program and reward repeat visits without a separate system to reconcile.
Reputation fields, review-ready
Birdeye-ready reputation fields sit on each profile to support a review-request workflow. Review display is live today; collection is coming soon.
Zero data entry to start
There is no manual create-a-customer step. The database is created through check-in, so a real CRM exists from day one without anyone typing it in.
Who this is for
High-volume nail salons
When the day is wall-to-wall walk-ins, you cannot stop to build profiles. CheckIn turns every person in line into a known client without slowing the front desk.
Head spas and day spas
A calm, premium client relationship depends on remembering people. Visit history and loyalty status mean a returning guest is recognized, not re-introduced.
Multi-location salons and groups
Run several locations from one account and keep one clean client identity across all of them, with each shop's activity tracked on its own.
Salons of every kind
Hair, beauty, lash and brow, waxing, blow-dry, and massage and wellness. If clients walk in, CheckIn builds the database while you work.
Questions, answered
Do I have to add clients manually?
No. CheckIn has no create-a-customer step. Client records are created automatically the moment someone checks in, so your database builds itself as you run your queue, with zero data entry to start.
Will the same client show up as duplicate records?
No. CheckIn normalizes phone numbers and emails and matches a person to their existing record before creating a new one, so one client stays one record instead of becoming several near-duplicates.
Does one client record work across all my locations?
Yes. A client is one identity for your whole business, shared across every location, while each shop keeps its own visit activity tracked separately so your per-location numbers stay accurate.
What does the CRM remember about each client?
Each profile holds visit history (service, staff member, and date), client stats like visit counts and engagement, loyalty enrollment status, and reputation fields, all kept current automatically as the client returns.
Is the loyalty program connected to the client profile?
Yes. Loyalty enrollment status lives on the client record itself, so you can see who is enrolled and reward repeat visits without reconciling a separate loyalty system.
Can CheckIn collect customer reviews?
Review display is live today, and reputation fields sit on every client profile to support a review-request workflow. In-app review collection is coming soon.
