GPOS

What GPOS is

GPOS is salon management software designed for nail salons, bringing checkout, appointment scheduling, customer records and multi-store controls into one system. At the point of sale, staff can split payments, accept gift cards and apply smart tips; transactions are processed in under 60 seconds. The appointment calendar supports drag-and-drop scheduling, recurring bookings, SMS reminders and staff availability management. Customer profiles hold visit history, loyalty points and preferences, with birthday reminders. For salons with multiple locations, one dashboard provides consolidated reporting and centralized control. Customers can save membership and gift cards to Apple Wallet, where balances and status update automatically. GPOS Payments integrates credit-card processing with the POS and provides next-day funding; its program states it is PCI certified and compliant in all 50 states. The app syncs data to the cloud in real time. GPOS runs on Windows tablets and Android devices. The Android app requires Android 10 or higher, 4GB RAM and 100MB of free storage. Plans include Pro at $50 a month, Ultimate at $120 a month and Custom month-to-month pricing. A 14-day trial and interactive demo are available without a credit card. Support is offered by phone and email Monday to Friday, 9am–6pm EST.

Who it suits

GPOS suits nail salons that want checkout, booking calendars and customer records in one system, including businesses managing multiple locations. It also fits salons that want Apple Wallet gift and membership cards or integrated card processing with next-day funding.

Limits

Pro covers one location and one terminal and does not include SMS reminders. SMS reminders are included in Ultimate and Custom, with usage based on appointment volume.

Getting started

1. Open the GPOS website or use a Windows tablet or Android device.
2. Try the interactive demo; it requires no credit card and resets sample data hourly.
3. Start the 14-day free trial without a credit card.
4. Choose Pro at $50 a month, Ultimate at $120 a month, or ask about Custom pricing.
5. For Android, use a device with Android 10 or higher, 4GB RAM and 100MB free storage.

Verdict

Choose GPOS if your nail salon needs point of sale, appointment scheduling and customer management in one system, or if you need multi-store controls. Pro starts at $50 a month, while SMS reminders are included in Ultimate and Custom. Look elsewhere if you need SMS reminders on the entry plan or a different platform than Windows tablets and Android devices.
