No-shows cost salons time and revenue. A combination of reminders, clear expectations and easy rescheduling helps without pressuring customers.

Automated reminders are opt-in in PincodeSalonDesk and off by default. Delivery cannot be guaranteed because external providers and recipient networks are involved.

Should I use SMS or WhatsApp reminders?

Use the channel your customers prefer. WhatsApp transactional messages cost 18 paise and SMS 23 paise (GST-inclusive) when sent through SalonDesk message credits.
