Salon platform

PointMintz: a real alternative for salons

If you are weighing PointMintz against another platform for your salon, here is the honest version: exactly what the PointMintz salon platform includes today, and what each plan costs. We do not describe a competitor's product for you — check their current plans and features yourself, then line them up against this list.

Transparent pricing

PointMintz uses one honest per-cluster price for salons. SMS is a flat add-on, never a per-message surcharge. These are our own published plan prices — compare them to a competitor's current plans for yourself.

Live pricing is temporarily unavailable. See current PointMintz pricing.

Most tools force a compromise.

PointMintz keeps your brand, booking, and operations in the same system — the same comparison as our homepage, not a claim about any specific product's current features.

Compare for yourself

The fairest comparison is the one you run. Book a free PointMintz trial, put your real services and staff in, and see how the day-to-day feels. Then open a competitor's own pricing and feature pages and decide with your own eyes — no marketing spin from us about their product.
