Sound familiar?

These are the challenges hair salons face every day. Blinko solves all of them.

event_busy

40% of color clients skip next appointment

Stylists book them for 6-week touch-ups but they forget. Revenue lost: $150-300 per missed appointment.

loyalty

Clients loyal to stylists, not salons

When your best stylist leaves, so do their clients. Salon loses the relationship.

phone

Reminder phone calls waste time

Calling clients to remind them takes hours and has low success rates.

shopping_cart

Product sales happen at wrong moment

Stylists mention products but clients forget. Sales happen at checkout if at all.

Questions, answered.

The things hair salons ask before they sign up.

expand_more

No signup, no email, no account — just one QR scan. Customers who already have the free Blinko app connect instantly; new ones do a quick one-time free download.

How much does Blinko cost?

expand_more

Blinko has a free plan that stays free forever. Paid plans start at $19/month (Indie) with a 15-day trial — no credit card required.

How long does setup take?

expand_more

Most businesses go live in under 10 minutes — print your QR sticker, configure your first stamp card or welcome offer, and you are running.

Will I lose my customers if I switch from Square or Toast?

expand_more

No. Blinko sits alongside your existing POS — you keep your payment flow and just add the loyalty layer on top.

What kind of businesses use Blinko?

expand_more

Cafes, restaurants, nail salons, barbershops, retail shops, gyms, churches, yoga instructors, food trucks, and any business with repeat customers — including solo professionals without a fixed location.

Can I run a refer-a-friend campaign in Blinko?

expand_more

Yes. Blinko's referral campaigns let your existing customers invite friends with a personalized QR coupon — both the referrer and the new customer earn a reward when the friend makes their first purchase.

Does my customer have to download an app to refer their friend?

expand_more

No. Customers share the referral coupon directly via iMessage, WhatsApp, or any messaging app. The friend who receives it sees the offer instantly in the link preview, and only installs Blinko if they want to claim the reward.

Blinko Copilot

Blinko does the heavy lifting. You keep doing what you do best.

While you keep doing what you do best, Blinko Copilot watches your customers, spots who's drifting away, runs the right campaign at the right time, and explains your numbers in plain English — proposing every move for your one-tap approval.

Spots who's drifting away

Blinko automatically identifies customers who haven't visited in a while — before they forget you exist.

Sends the right nudge at the right time

A perfectly timed offer goes out automatically. No scheduling, no copywriting, no thinking required.

insights

Gets smarter with every visit

Every check-in teaches Blinko more about your customers. Over time it fine-tunes who to reach and when — so results keep improving on their own.

Set it up once. Blinko runs it from there.
