The short answer for waxing studios

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for which credit card machine is best for a waxing studio: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.

For most waxing studios we start with the Clover Flex. A Flex goes where the sale happens: its own cellular connection, a long-lasting battery, a printer in the body and a drop-resistant build.

Waxing studios book many short services and sell packages, with a steady rhythm of repeat clients and a clear peak before holidays and vacations.

What a waxing studio needs from a card machine

How the menu rings

Services by area, packages of visits and add-on products. Packages need a remaining-visits count.

How customers pay

Cards and wallets, with tips and prepaid packages.

Who is using it

Estheticians with their own rooms or stations and a front desk that books and checks out.

Where it lives

A Flex for room-side checkout, a Mini at reception and a printer for receipts if clients ask.

The setup we would quote

We stage the system before it ships, install it with you in the room, and rehearse a real service so launch day is not the first time anyone uses it.

Mistakes waxing studios make

Selling packages as manual discounts means no one knows how many visits remain.

Buying hardware before mapping the busiest ten minutes of the day.
Building a separate button for every variation instead of using modifiers.
Never reviewing the first week of reports, so slow buttons stay on the screen.

One more thing owners tell us

Waxing is one of the most rebooking-driven services, because hair growth sets a natural four-to-six-week rhythm. Offering the next slot at the chair, with a package that rewards a committed series, tends to do more for the calendar than any promotion, and the receipt can carry the next appointment date so clients leave with it in hand.

Why work with us

What you get from Merchant Fund Express is a team, not a box: installation at your location, practical training and phone support, plus funding options from the same company if your plans grow.

Common questions

Can I sell packages?

Yes. Packages can be sold as items or gift cards, depending on how you structure them.

Can I take payment in the room?

A Flex lets estheticians close out in the treatment room.

Can I take a deposit when a client books?

Yes. Deposits can be recorded as partial payments and applied at the appointment.

Do you publish prices for this setup?

No. Equipment and processing are quoted to your business, because the right number depends on your volume, card mix and how many stations you need. Call (305) 384-8391 for a personal quote.

How long does it take to get running?

At Merchant Fund Express, once your account is approved the hardware is configured and scheduled for on-site installation. We give you a real date when you call, and we stay with you through the first service.
