Payments

Get paid without giving up a cut.

Clients pay by card straight into your own Stripe or Square account. We never hold your money, and we take nothing from it.

Pay page with tip options

Card payments, cash recording, and refunds are free on every plan. Your processor's standard fees apply. Booking deposits are included with Pro and Branded.

At the counter

Collect before they reach the door.

When you check a client out, show a QR code or send a pay link. They pay on their own phone, choose a tip, and your calendar updates on its own.

  • QR code or pay link
  • Clients choose their tip
  • Updates the moment they pay

Later is fine

Nothing slips through.

A visit that is still owed shows up in the client's account as payment due, with the exact amount left after any deposit. If nothing more is owed, mark it settled.

  • Payment due in the client's account
  • The balance after deposits, worked out for you
  • Mark a balance as settled
Client account: payment due

Questions

Before you ask.

Does Lumidara take a percentage?

No. We take no cut on any plan. Stripe or Square charges its standard processing fees to your own account, as it would anywhere else.

Do I need a Stripe or Square account?

Only to take cards. Connect the Square account you already have, or create a free Stripe account during setup. If you only take cash, skip it and record cash payments instead.

Can I use Square or PayPal?

Stripe and Square are both supported, one at a time. PayPal is on the way.
