Gloa for barbershops

THE DAY

The calendar

Set a duration and price for each service. Scheduled clients, walk-ins, and blocked time appear in one calendar, with a separate column for each barber.

Every service fits

A fade, a beard trim, and a line-up take the space you set for each service.

Every barber visible

View the full shop schedule or one barber’s calendar.

Walk-ins join the day

Add the client at the desk so the calendar reflects who actually took the chair.

Time away stays clear

Block an errand, a day off, or a longer absence for one barber or the whole shop.

No duplicate bookings

Once a client reserves a time, another client cannot confirm it.

Shop hours hold

Regular days off, holidays, and shop closures disappear from the times clients can choose.

THE PLATFORM

What Gloa handles

Gloa sends booking confirmations, advance reminders, and appointment changes by email. Counter sales, payments, and tips remain linked to the appointment.

Reminders before the chair

The client receives a booking confirmation and advance reminders by email in the selected language.

Deposits by service

Ask for a deposit, full payment, or a card on file for the services you choose and show the terms before confirmation.

Client history

Visits, services, amounts, preferred barber, and team-only notes stay together in the client book.

Missed slots handled

Keep or waive the fee the client saw when booking, and ask a past no-show for a deposit next time without labelling him.

Tips reach the barber

Every counter sale shows the tip beside the person who earned it.

Sales reports

Read or export reports by service, barber, or period, with unfinished appointments and payments brought forward.

YOUR BUSINESS

What stays yours

Your client book

Import your existing list. Matching contact details identify existing clients. Later bulk imports may require review before exemption from introduction fees is confirmed.

Your shop rules

The cancellation policy shown at booking stays fixed on that appointment, even if you change the policy later.

Your card payments

Card payments reach the shop’s own account on its chosen schedule, and Gloa holds none of the money.

ANSWERS

Common questions

Can I add a walk-in without losing the booking?

Yes. Add him at the desk and the occupied time becomes part of the same calendar clients book from.

Can each barber run a separate day?

Each barber has a calendar, working name, and client conversations, while roles keep the shop’s books with the people who own them.

Can I protect a busy Saturday slot?

Choose which services require a deposit, full payment, or a card on file, and the client sees the requirement before confirming.

Can a chair renter use Gloa without seeing my books?

Yes. A chair renter or guest barber can work from the shop for a set stay without access to the shop’s books.
