For nail artists
Stop booking from Instagram DMs. Your page takes deposits, fills, gift cards, and the next set - while you are still at the table.
The mess
DMs, screenshots of your grid, and “are you free Saturday?” eat the time you should spend on sets. No-shows still happen because nothing was paid. Fills drift because nobody got a reminder at week two.
With Hacado
Clients pick gel vs acrylic, add art, pay a deposit, and get an SMS the day before. Gift cards sell on the site for birthdays. You keep the relationship - not a marketplace sending them to the next studio.

Gel, acrylic, builder, fills vs full sets, art as add-ons - clients stop guessing in DMs when duration and price are on the page. Duplicate-booking checks can warn someone who already has a fill on the books this cycle.
Revenue between appointments
A branded gift card on your site is how friends buy for birthdays without you handwriting a voucher. Seasonal discounts (holiday sets, slow Tuesdays) can be limited to named services so you are not discounting everything. Packages work if you sell a bundle of fills.
Your book, not a directory
Hacado is not Booksy or Fresha. There is no marketplace commission and no “similar artists nearby.” Instagram, Google, and word of mouth bring people; the site converts them.

Yes. Design the card in Gift Card Studio and sell it on your website with Stripe, Square, or PayPal.
Reminders timed to your fill cycle, plus a waitlist when you are booked out. Clients can also rebook from the confirmation or cabinet.
Yes. The page is yours. You do not share a salon’s booking tool or their brand.
Start on Solo. Studio adds seats, per-person calendars, and “book a person or next available.”
Open your book
Free to start. Solo when you need deposits and a domain. Studio when the team needs seats.
