AT A GLANCE
The hard facts before you switch.
| Fact | Detail |
|---|---|
| Price | Owner Pro costs CA$49/month for a salon with up to 25 active accounts, including the Square Terminal Bridge. |
| Independent AI receptionist | The optional 24/7 AI receptionist starts at CA$99/month with 125 connected minutes included, then CA$0.69 per extra minute. It works without Owner Pro and includes its own calendar. |
| Languages | The owner, technician and booking workspace runs in English, French and Vietnamese. Receptionist calls are answered in English. |
| Integrations | Checkout runs through the Square Terminal Bridge. The receptionist includes a calendar; automatic booking through Google Calendar, Square Appointments or Wix Bookings requires that connection to pass its setup checks. |
| Built in | Glownomics is built in Saskatoon, Canada. |
| Payroll | Glownomics does not run payroll, file taxes or decide worker classification — Square handles card approval, tips, refunds, fees and deposits. |
ONE OPERATING RECORD
Run the whole nail salon day without stitching systems together afterward.
A calendar can hold appointments and a payment terminal can charge a card. Glownomics connects the operating decisions between them: who is waiting, who is eligible, who performed each service, where the tip came from and why the weekly payout has that number.
Explainable technician turns
Separate first-available and requested guests, apply the salon’s saved rotation rules and keep each exception’s reason.
Ticket and Square checkout
Lock the exact services and total, let Square Terminal collect payment and the customer-entered tip, then return confirmed evidence.
Private technician details
Each technician sees only their own allocated services, tips and payout explanation—not another person’s records.
Weekly payout close
Review share rules, tips and adjustments by source ticket, then lock one weekly payout run with preserved history.
Bookkeeping export
Export source-backed bookkeeping records without pretending Glownomics runs payroll, files taxes or replaces professional advice.
BUILT FOR THE NAIL SALON FLOOR
Daily nail salon turn tracking for walk-ins and requested guests.
Turn Flow checks which technicians are Ready and eligible for the service, then applies your saved rotation rules. First-available guests and clients requesting a technician stay in separate lanes; each assignment keeps its reason. Owners can set service turn values, so a polish change and a long full set need not count the same.
EACH TECHNICIAN'S OWN VIEW
What a technician sees on their own phone.
A technician's Today screen shows their place in the turn order, today's estimated earnings and tips—never another technician's numbers or the salon-wide payout run.
Turn position, in real time
The app shows a technician's current place in the rotation—"You are #2. Wait after Kim."—along with a button to pause taking new guests when they step away.

FAQ
What nail salon owners usually ask.
Does Glownomics include online booking for nail salons?
Yes. Owner Pro includes public booking for multiple technicians, service selection, conflict checks, email confirmations and reminders. A salon can keep its current booking system while testing Glownomics.
How does Glownomics handle nail technician turns?
Owner Pro keeps first-available and requested guests in separate lanes, checks technician Ready status and service eligibility, and preserves the saved reason for each assignment or exception.
Can Glownomics work with Square?
Selected salon workspaces can use the guided Square Terminal Bridge. Square remains responsible for card approval, the customer-entered tip, refunds, fees and deposits; Glownomics preserves the surrounding ticket and payout record.
Does Glownomics run payroll?
No. It records salon tickets, saved technician-share rules, tips, adjustments and payout status. It does not move wages, calculate statutory deductions, file taxes or decide worker classification.
What can a nail technician see?
A technician can see their own tickets, allocated tips, stored calculation explanation and payout status. They cannot see another technician’s amounts or the salon-wide payout run.
Can a salon try Glownomics without switching immediately?
Yes. The public demo uses sample data, and selected salons can use a guided Shadow Week to compare Glownomics with the current workflow before choosing a cutover date.
