How it works
Set up in an afternoon. Take bookings the same day.
- 01
Set up your nail services
Add each service you offer, such as gel manicure, BIAB infill, or acrylic removal. Set durations and prices so the system reflects your real table time. Choose how much deposit you want to take on every booking. Cyntree builds a clean public page from this list, ready for clients to use. You can adjust services later without starting again from scratch.
- 02
Share your booking link from where clients already are
Turn on 24/7 online booking and share your link in your Instagram bio, WhatsApp chats, or existing website. Clients pick their service, choose a time that matches your saved availability, and pay any required deposit through supported payments. They receive automated email confirmations instantly, which cuts down on “is my booking confirmed?” messages. You see every new appointment in your app and
- 03
Keep days tidy with reminders and reports
On Pro or Premium, add SMS reminders so clients get nudges at 24 hours and 2 hours before appointments. Use two-way calendar sync so your personal plans do not clash with paid work. After a few weeks, open bookings and revenue reports to see which services bring the most income and which times stay empty. Adjust durations, deposits, or hours based on what you see so your diary stays built around a
Trusted by nail techs who run the table, not a desk
You keep your diary in your head, your phone, and the gaps between sets. Cyntree is for that kind of day. Strong nails, tight timing, constant messages. Booking software for nail technicians has to work while you are mid-set, not assume you sit at a laptop. Every missed WhatsApp or lost Instagram DM is a set you could have done. Every last-minute cancellation cuts into rent, products, and your own pay. Cyntree is built around how you actually work. Short infill gaps, long first-time BIAB, full acrylic sets before school pick-up. 24/7 online booking lets clients pick the right service without asking you “what should I book?” while you are holding a file. Automated email confirmations mean every appointment is written down and sent to the client. Add SMS reminders at 24 hours and 2 hours before the slot so clients remember, turn up, and respect your time.
- Clients messaging all night asking if you have anything tomorrow for BIAB.
- Instagram DMs buried under nail inspo saves so real bookings slip past.
- Last-minute cancellations that leave empty gaps you cannot refill in time.
- New clients unsure what to book, so they never confirm anything.
- Walk-ins asking for full sets when you only have an infill-sized gap.
Run your nail diary from one link and one app
Cyntree gives you a simple booking link that feels like a small website. Clients choose a service, see real availability, and pay a deposit in one flow. You set your hours and rules. The app follows them. Start with 24/7 online booking so clients can book gel, acrylic, or BIAB from your Instagram bio or WhatsApp. Automated email confirmations keep things clear. On Pro or Premium, add SMS reminders so clients get a firm nudge before their infill or removal. Behind the scenes, a built-in client database keeps every visit, note, and allergy in one place. You can see who always rebooks and who vanishes after a first set. Bookings and revenue reports show which services fill your chair and which sit quiet. All of this runs from your phone. In the time it takes to change a hand, you can check tomorrow, confirm a request, or block out your own nail appointment.
- Share one link so clients choose services, times, add-ons, and pay deposits themselves.
- Use 24/7 online booking to cut back-and-forth DMs that steal your evenings.
- Rely on automated email confirmations so every booking is written down for you and the client.
- Turn on SMS reminders so clients get a clear nudge before their appointment starts.
- Check bookings and revenue reports to see which nail services actually pay your rent.
Take a deposit on every booking and cut no-shows
No-shows hurt more at the nail table. One missed infill can wipe a big slice of your week’s profit. Cyntree helps you take a deposit on every booking so clients commit before they sit. You set the deposit per service, from quick tidy-ups to detailed nail art. Deposits run through Stripe or other supported providers, so you are not chasing bank transfers or holding notes in the drawer. You decide your policy for late cancellations and no-shows. When someone cancels inside your terms, you can keep the deposit and protect your paid time. Automated SMS reminders at 24 hours and 2 hours before the appointment keep clients aware. Combined with deposits, that reduces no-shows without constant chasing. Over time, your days have fewer gaps and more predictable income. That makes it easier to plan stock orders, rent, and your own days off.
- Set deposit percentages per service so a full set carries more commitment than a quick tidy.
- Use deposits alongside SMS reminders so clients think twice before skipping.
- Hold deposits via Stripe so payments stay tied to the booking record.
- Apply a clear no-show policy so clients learn your boundaries early.
- Take a deposit on every booking so you get paid on the day, not weeks later.
Accept a booking while you are mid-set
A gel manicure is not the same as a quick file. Your booking flow should match the real work. With Cyntree, 24/7 online booking lets you shape each nail service so clients pick the right option without a single message. You set durations and prices in the app. Longer for new sets, shorter for infills, extra time for detailed nail art. Publish them so clients see a clear menu: gel manicure, gel plus removal, BIAB infill, acrylic removal, nail art add-ons. On Pro or Premium, connect two-way calendar sync so your personal calendar and nail bookings stay aligned. If something is blocked in Google or Apple Calendar, clients cannot book over it. Automated email confirmations and follow-ups keep clients updated if you need to move a slot. The benefit is simple: fewer “what should I book?” chats and fewer double-booked chairs when your friend’s birthday dinner is already in your diary.
- Publish clear nail services so clients book gel, acrylic, or BIAB without guessing.
- Let clients book anytime with 24/7 online booking from Instagram, WhatsApp, or your link in bio.
- Use two-way calendar sync so private plans stop clients booking over them.
- Send automated email confirmations and updates when times or dates change.
- Cut admin questions because your booking page already answers “how long?” and “how much?”

Frequently asked
Quick answers before you sign up
- How fast can I start taking bookings as a nail technician?
- You can usually start taking real bookings the same day. Create your Cyntree account, add your main nail services with durations and prices, then turn on 24/7 online booking. Share the link in your Instagram bio, WhatsApp, or website and clients can book straight away. We suggest starting in test mode first so you can run a few dummy bookings, check the flow, and decide on deposit amounts per service. When it feels right, switch to live and start taking real payments.
- Can I really take a deposit on every booking?
- Yes. Cyntree supports accepting booking deposits through supported payment providers. You can set deposit levels per service so higher value appointments carry a stronger commitment. Deposits are tied to each booking, so when a client cancels late or does not show, you can apply your own policy. Combine deposits with SMS reminders at Pro or Premium level to help reduce no-shows on busy days. Many nail technicians use this to protect evenings and Saturdays, when empty slots hurt most.
- What is included in the Starter level for nail technicians?
- Starter is built to help solo nail technicians start taking bookings without a big system. You get a public booking page, service setup, 24/7 online booking, payments and tips through supported providers, and automated email confirmations and reminders. There is a bookings-per-month limit on Starter, which suits newer or part-time operators. When you are regularly hitting the cap or want extras like SMS reminders, calendar sync, marketing tools, or discount codes, you can move to Pro or Premium.
- How does Cyntree handle my clients’ data and consent?
- Every booking creates or updates a client profile in the built-in client database. You can see visit history, notes, and consent state in one place instead of scattered messages. If you use pre-appointment intake forms at Premium level, client responses and signatures also attach to that record. You stay in control of what you collect and how you use it to prepare for each appointment.
- Can I sync my personal calendar with my nail bookings?
- On Pro and Premium plans you can use two-way calendar sync with supported calendars like Google or Apple Calendar. When you have something blocked in your personal diary, Cyntree treats that time as unavailable so clients cannot book over it. Confirmed bookings appear in your external calendar. This helps keep social plans, other work, and nail appointments from clashing, without you typing everything twice.
- What happens if I stop using Cyntree?
- You can cancel a paid plan at any time because there are no long contracts. Before making changes, we suggest planning around a quieter week so regular clients are not surprised. You can also review your built-in client database so you have the information you need for your own records. If you decide to switch tools later, you can still use Cyntree’s AI-assisted data import when you come back or set up a new workspace.
