Free Booking App for Nail Salons: Fewer Calls, More Nails
When you're doing nails, both hands are on your client's — you can't touch your phone. A free online booking page lets clients pick their own service and time while you focus on the set in front of you.
Why nail salons need online booking most
Nail work is hands-on from start to finish. A gel set can take over an hour, and every call or text that comes in meanwhile has to wait. By the time you can reply, the client may have booked elsewhere.
Nail menus are also long — gel, French, removal, extensions, manicures, pedicures — each with its own time and price, and clients often call just to ask "how long does it take and how much?"
What your booking page does
- Services and prices, up front. Add each service with its length and price, and clients see it all on your booking page instead of calling to ask.
- Only real open times. Nuvoca matches each service's length to your free time. Taken slots are never offered, so there are no double bookings.
- Clients manage their own bookings. After signing in with their mobile number, clients can reschedule or cancel, and your calendar updates itself.
- Scan to book. Put your QR code at the front desk or by the drying station, and clients can book their next visit before they leave.
The AI assistant: talk instead of type
Your Nuvoca dashboard includes an AI shop assistant. Tap the mic and ask "Any openings Saturday afternoon?" and it checks your calendar. Say "Book Lisa for gel removal and a new gel set next Wednesday at 2" and it drafts the appointment for you to confirm.
It never acts on its own: every new booking, change or cancellation waits for you to tap "Confirm".
Run it in Chinese, clients book in English
In many salons the team works in Chinese while most clients speak English. Nuvoca's dashboard and booking page both work in English and Chinese — you can manage in one language while clients see the booking page in the language their phone uses.

FAQ
Do I have to enter every service on my menu?
We recommend adding the services you do most, each with its length and price. Clients see them on the booking page, so they don't need to call and ask.
Can I use only the free booking, without the phone AI?
Yes. Online booking, the mobile dashboard and the AI assistant are free. The AI voice receptionist for phone calls is a separate paid feature, and you don't need it to use everything else.
Do clients pay a deposit when they book?
Not at the moment. Online bookings don't take a deposit; clients pay at the salon.
