Per-barber calendars
Each barber has their own hours and their own availability, so a client books the person they want and your regulars stay yours.
For barber shops
Walk-ins and regulars, without the Saturday queue argument.
Every barber has their own regulars, Saturday is a wall of people, and the till is a drawer of notes nobody counts. Vendzi runs the chair and the counter together.

The daily friction
What actually goes wrong running barber shops
Walk-ins and appointments fight for the same chair
A regular with a 3pm booking and three people waiting is a decision you have to make in front of everyone, every hour.
Regulars want their barber, not any barber
A shared calendar cannot express "I want Amir", so the client books with whoever answers and the relationship is lost.
Variations are not separate services
Skin fade, beard trim, fade plus beard. Listing every combination as its own service makes a booking page nobody can read.
The till and the bookings never agree
Cash in the drawer, a card machine, and a booking app that only knows about appointments — the day’s numbers get rebuilt by hand.
How Vendzi handles it
The same problems, solved on one system
Everything below is in the product today — not a roadmap item.
Service variations instead of service sprawl
A haircut with fade and beard options as variants of one service, so the booking page stays short and the ticket stays precise.
POS built for a counter with a queue
Ring up a walk-in in seconds — services, products, custom items, a discount on the line — take card, cash or a payment link, and email the receipt.
Hold an order and come back to it
Someone steps out for cash mid-ticket. Hold the order, serve the next person, resume it when they are back, with nothing lost.
Order history that closes the day
Every ticket is recorded with its payment method and the staff member who took it, so the drawer count has something to check against.
Deposits for the appointments worth protecting
Configure a deposit on the long or high-demand services and let the short ones stay walk-in friendly.
A day on Vendzi
From first click to second visit
One record follows the client from the ad to the rebooking — nothing is retyped, nothing lives in a DM thread.
Morning
Booked in one click
The client picks a real opening with the practitioner they want. The slot is claimed atomically, so it cannot be sold twice.
Midday
Protected where it counts
A deposit guards the long treatments. The short ones stay frictionless — deposits are set per service.
Before
Reminded, not chased
Automatic reminders go out before the appointment, so the forgotten visit is the exception rather than the pattern.
During
Noted for next time
History, notes and preferences land on one client record, with role-based access deciding who can read what.
After
Rung up and rebooked
Services and retail go on one ticket at the counter, the payment is recorded against the client, and the next visit is booked.

Point of sale
Ring up a walk-in, take payment, email a receipt and close the day — without a second till that never agrees with the books.

Real availability, not a request form
Booking & calendar
Clients see the slots your staff can actually work, and a slot is claimed atomically — two people cannot book the same chair.
- Availability derived from each staff member’s hours and time off
- Per-service duration, so a colour appointment is not a haircut slot
- Deposits at booking for the services you want protected
- No-show tracking against the client record
Every visit, attached to a person

Questions
Questions we get from barber shops
If yours is not here, ask when you sign up — you will get a person.
Can we still take walk-ins?
Yes. POS orders do not need a booking, so a walk-in is rung up at the counter like any other ticket.
Can clients choose their barber?
Yes — availability is per staff member, so a client can book the barber they want or take the next free chair.
Does it work on a phone or tablet at the counter?
Yes. The POS is built to run on a tablet or phone, including a compact cart for small screens.
Same platform
Also built for
Same platform underneath. What changes is which parts carry the weight — and nothing is locked in.
