Barbs is barbershop management software for Malaysian barbershops, salons and multi-branch operators. It brings digital queue management, QR-code booking, point of sale, customer records, loyalty, analytics, inventory and staff operations into one system. Customers can select a service, barber and time through a QR-code booking page, or join a queue from a web browser without installing an app. It is a strong fit for growing shops that want free entry, integrated payments and room to add operational controls as they expand.

The published plans show a useful progression. Free includes unlimited queues and walk-ins, unlimited POS and receipts, QR-code booking and customer management. Growth costs MYR 79 per month and adds loyalty, analytics and a product catalog; an annual Growth price of RM790 is also listed. Pro costs MYR 149 per month and adds inventory management, suppliers and purchase orders, a cash drawer, a sales dashboard and priority support. Enterprise costs MYR 299 per month and adds multi-branch support, custom branding, dedicated support, custom integrations and an SLA. This makes the free tier suitable for basic operation, while shops with retail stock, deeper reporting or multiple locations need a paid plan.

Barbs also fits businesses that rely on regional payment and messaging tools. Integrations include ToyyibPay, Billplz, DuitNow QR, Touch n Go, GrabPay, WhatsApp and SMS. The platform is available on the web and Android, with staff scheduling, performance tracking and commissions supporting day-to-day management. Shops seeking a dedicated customer mobile app should look elsewhere, since booking is browser-based rather than app-based. Barbs suits operators wanting one system across bookings, queues, payments and shop operations; smaller teams needing only simple appointment scheduling may not need its wider feature set.
