Per-service durations down to the minute
File-and-paint, BIAB, gel removal, full sets — each gets the exact time it needs.
The all-in-one booking platform for nail studios
Nail salon booking software with tech choice, a gallery and card-secured bookings
From a quick file-and-paint to full BIAB sets, every service slots in with the right time and the right technician.
No charge for 7 days. Cancel any time.
Velixa is nail salon booking software that handles every service length down to the minute, lets clients pick their favourite tech, and shows off your latest sets with a built-in website photo gallery. Card-secured bookings cut no-shows and reminders keep the day on time.
Online booking
Let clients book themselves, day or night
Stop running your nail studio from a phone-line. Velixa puts every diary online so clients pick the slot, the staff member and the set they want — without a call back.
- Real-time availability on every device
- Per-staff bookable diaries with breaks and time off
- Hosted booking page plus an embeddable widget
Payments
Card secured before they walk in
Every booking saves a card on file via Stripe — no charge at reservation. After a full BIAB set, charge the stored card with one tap. Money lands in a Stripe account in your name, never ours. If a client cancels late or doesn't show, apply a fee to their saved card under your cancellation policy.
- Card saved on file — no charge until after the appointment
- Late-cancel and no-show fees charged to the stored card
- Payouts to a Stripe account in your name
Repeat revenue
Sell more than just appointments
Most nail studios leave money on the table by only selling time. Velixa adds packages, memberships, gift cards and loyalty stamps — all on the same booking page, all in the same dashboard.
- Pre-paid service packages
- Recurring memberships via Stripe
- Branded gift cards and loyalty stamps

Every booking saves a card on file via Stripe — charge after the appointment or apply a no-show fee with one tap. Payouts go to a Stripe account in your name.
Customer notes and visit history
Last colour, last shape and last design live on the customer card so the next visit picks up where the last one ended.

Automatic email reminder before every appointment. Add pay-as-you-go SMS credits if you want a text nudge too.
Frequently asked questions
Real answers about how Velixa works for nail studios.
Can clients pick a specific nail technician?
Yes — every technician has their own diary and clients pick from a list with live availability when they book.
How do you reduce no-shows?
Every booking saves a card on file via Stripe — no charge at reservation. If a client cancels late or doesn't show, you can apply a no-show or late-cancel fee to their stored card from the payment row in your dashboard.
Can I keep notes on each client?
Yes — every customer card has a notes area where you can keep colour formulas, references and finish preferences for next time.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — every Velixa account starts with a 7-day free trial of every feature. We collect your card at signup so the trial rolls automatically into your subscription, but no payment is taken for 7 days and you can cancel any time before then.
Do you charge per booking?
No. Velixa is a flat monthly subscription — take as many bookings as your diary will hold without paying any per-booking commission.
Will my clients get reminders?
Yes — every account sends an automatic email reminder roughly 24 hours before each appointment, included at no extra cost. SMS reminders are an optional pay-as-you-go add-on: top up credits in your dashboard whenever you want text-message nudges as well.
