## Beauty salon POS software in Eldoret

Eldoret, in Uasin Gishu County: Kenya's agricultural breadbasket and athletics capital. Trade concentrates in Nairobi and along the Mombasa corridor, with county towns served by traders who restock weekly from the capital. Mobile money reaches further than banking does, so even rural shops settle by phone. Month-end and school-term dates move retail demand more than any promotion.

- **Currency:** KES
- **How customers pay:** M-Pesa (STK Push & Till/Paybill), cards, and bank transfers
- **M-Pesa:** Integrated: STK Push and Till Number
- **Tax:** KRA eTIMS invoices
- **Connectivity:** Keeps selling offline, syncs when back online

## Built for the way beauty salons actually run

**No-shows you saw coming?** Book appointments in EliteTeQ and send a WhatsApp reminder beforehand, with a deposit for long or premium services.

**Commission and tips argued over?** Each service is recorded against the stylist who did it, and commission and tips are worked out for any period.

**Four services, three stylists, one client?** Every service goes on one bill, each assigned to its stylist, paid in M-Pesa, card or cash.

**Package balances nobody trusts?** Packages and memberships are deducted visit by visit, with the balance on the client’s record.

**New clients who never come back?** Every client is saved with their services and preferences, so you can message them on WhatsApp when it is time to book again.

**Not sure what really earns?** Takings by service, stylist and product, live on your phone, with the salon’s books updating as you sell.

## What EliteTeQ gives back to your beauty salon

**The product is there when the stylist reaches for it** (Stock · warehouses & branches) Retail products and salon supplies counted live in every branch, so you reorder before a shelf or a trolley runs empty.

**Pay only for what arrived** (Purchases · purchase returns) Supplier deliveries are recorded as they arrive, and faulty or wrong products go back off the supplier’s bill.

**One bill for the whole visit** (Sales · sales returns) Services, products and tips go on one bill, and a returned product goes straight back into stock.

**Spills and expired product on record** (Damages) A broken bottle or a product past its date is written off with a reason, so stock and profit stay true.

**Supplies where the bookings are** (Stock transfers) Move conditioner or polish from a quiet branch to a busy one, with both counts right.

**Stylists serve, you see the numbers** (Roles & permissions) Reception books and bills, and only you change prices, approve voids and see every branch.

**Every service has a name and a time** (Multi-user · audit logs) Each stylist has a login, so every bill, discount and void is tied to a person and a time.

**Clients show up, and come back** (WhatsApp) Appointment reminders and rebooking messages on WhatsApp, the app your clients already use.

**Know where every bottle went** (Product movement reports) Received, transferred, sold, returned or written off: the full history of every product.

**Books that keep up with the chairs** (Accounting) Takings, product purchases and expenses post to your accounts as they happen, branch by branch.

**Payday is a report, not an argument** (HRM) Each stylist’s details, commission and tips sit next to the services they did, for any period.

**Your business in your pocket, online or off** (Cloud · offline) Check every branch from your phone, and keep billing with M-Pesa when the network drops. Everything syncs when it returns.
