EasySalon review
Low-cost salon payroll calculations with commission, tip, and compensation support.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
EasySalon is cloud-based salon management software built primarily for nail salons, with support for spas and beauty studios. It brings online booking, appointment reminders, checkout, Stripe payment processing, staff scheduling, technician profiles, inventory, loyalty programs, gift cards, and payroll tools into one web-based system. Salon owners, managers, and technicians can use shared operational records to connect checkout activity with staff earnings. Its payroll functions support hourly, commission, and hybrid compensation runs, making it a focused option for small salons that need payroll calculations alongside day-to-day management.
Pricing is structured around two monthly fees. The Salon fee is $15 per salon per month and includes access to the EasySalon platform, with no setup fee, no per-booking fee, and no contract. The Tech fee is $20 per technician per month and is used together with the salon fee. A 14-day free trial is available. The published pricing also states that a card is required to start the trial, alongside a conflicting “No credit card” label near the top of the pricing page. This structure keeps the salon-level entry price low, while technician-based costs should be considered when estimating the monthly total.
EasySalon’s strongest payroll fit is its connection between checkout and compensation workflows. It supports commission splits by technician, service, or percentage, calculates tip-outs from checkout data, and provides payroll reports. Role-based permissions, audit logs, and multi-location reporting add administrative controls for growing operations. Stripe is the listed integration, and access is limited to the web. The product is a good match for small salons prioritizing booking, payments, scheduling, and salon-specific earnings calculations in one system. Businesses that require verified tax filing, contractor payments, or direct deposit should choose a payroll service with those functions clearly included.
