Scheduling & Payments • Part 2 of the Tattoo Shop System

Make Booking and Payment Easier

Use your existing Square account—or open a free Square account—to help clients schedule appointments, make payments, and move smoothly into paperless informed consent.

Learn About Square Get the Tattoo Shop System

Scheduling and payment should not slow your studio down.

When booking, payment, and consent are disconnected, your shop may deal with:

Missed calls and scheduling interruptions
Extra check-in steps
Confused clients
Delayed consent forms
Unorganized appointment records
A less professional client experience

What Scheduling & Payments Does

Part 2 of the Tattoo Shop System helps your shop connect client scheduling and payment with the paperless consent process.

You can use it with:

  • An existing Square account
  • A new free Square account
  • Your Square booking link for appointments

Once your Square booking link is added to your Tattoo Shop System, clients can schedule more easily and move into the next step: completing their paperless informed consent form.
