What Katingwala Salon Software is

Katingwala Salon Software manages appointments, sales, inventory, staff, and loyalty for hair salons, spas, beauty parlours, and multi-branch chains. Its booking calendar creates slots based on on-duty stylist schedules and tracks bookings through pending, confirmed, in-service, completed, cancelled, and no-show statuses. The POS supports split payments and day-end Z-reports with breakdowns for services, products, discounts, loyalty, and payments. Inventory tools cover branch-level physical stock audits, low-stock alerts, and product expiry tracking. Staff features include role permissions, weekly and monthly targets, and pure commission, fixed salary, or hybrid pay models. Loyalty cards can be activated for free or for a one-time fee, and earned points do not expire. Katingwala uses Meta WhatsApp Cloud API for booking notifications, welcome messages, and owner sales digests; messaging is billed per use and is not included in the base subscription. It runs in a browser on Windows PCs, Macs, iPads, Android tablets, and smartphones, with no special hardware required. The listed Offer Plan costs ₹99 a year, billed per 6 months, and includes 1 branch, unlimited customers, 5 staff, and 1 tenant.
