Salon booking + POS with M-Pesa for Kenya

Omnix — answered.

Does it stop double-bookings?

Yes. Every booking checks the staff member (and the room/resource, if set) for a clash before it saves. The diary refuses to overlap two appointments for the same stylist.

How do staff commissions work?

Assign a commission rate per service, or a default per staff member. When you check an appointment out, commission accrues automatically to the stylist who did the work. Pay from the commission report at month-end.

Can I sell packages or memberships?

Sell prepaid bundles (e.g. 10 sessions of a service) up front. Sessions are stored against the client and redeem themselves at checkout — the covered service rings at zero and the balance drops by one.

Does it track products used during a service?

Yes — back-bar consumption. Map the professional products a service uses; on checkout they deduct from stock as an inventory adjustment. Retail take-home products sell as normal lines.

Does it handle walk-ins as well as appointments?

Both. Ring a walk-in straight through the till, or book it into the diary first. Either way it becomes a client record with full history for next time.

Is it offline-first?

Yes. The diary, checkout and client history all work with zero internet. M-Pesa, eTIMS and updates sync when the connection returns.
