Why Pay $165/Month When You Can Start from $5/month?
Mangomint's entry-level plan starts at $165/month designed for established salons with 5 or more service providers. If you're a solo stylist, a small team, or a growing salon watching your budget, that price tag may be hard to justify.
MioSalon takes a different approach. You choose the features your salon actually needs and pay only for those starting from just $5/month for billing and appointment management. As your business grows, you add features on your terms. Bundle everything together and save up to 75%.
From Solo Stylists to Growing Chains One Platform for All
Mangomint is explicitly designed for businesses with 5+ service providers. Solo practitioners, booth renters, and small teams are priced out before they even start.
MioSalon is built for salons of every size. Solo practitioners start with just billing and appointments for $5/month. Small teams add marketing, loyalty, or inventory as they grow. Multi-location chains get centralized management and advanced analytics. Whether you're a one-chair barbershop or a 20-location spa chain, MioSalon has a plan that fits.
Your Payments. Your Gateway. Your Rates.
Many premium salon platforms steer you toward their built-in payment processing. This limits your ability to shop for better transaction rates or use a local provider you already trust.
MioSalon integrates with 6+ payment gateways including popular local providers in your region. Choose the gateway with the lowest transaction fees, use hardware you already own, and keep your existing merchant relationships.
Core Features Included Not Sold Separately
With Mangomint, the base price gets you scheduling and basic management. But features like integrated forms, two-way texting (Connect), payroll processing, and marketing credits all come at additional cost. For a growing salon, these add-ons can significantly inflate your monthly bill beyond the already premium base price.
MioSalon's modular approach is different. You choose and pay for only the modules you need and each module includes its full feature set. No surprise add-ons, no nickel-and-diming. What you subscribe to is what you get, fully functional.
A Platform That Works Wherever Your Salon Is
Mangomint is primarily designed for the US market. For salons outside the US, this can mean limited payment processing options, higher messaging costs, and a pricing structure that doesn't account for local buying power.
MioSalon is a truly international platform with country-based pricing tiers, local SMS and WhatsApp rates, 6+ regional payment gateways, and direct accounting integrations no middleware needed. Whether your salon is in Austin, Dubai, Lagos, or Jakarta MioSalon is built to work for you.
