Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about the trial, pricing, everyday use and your data.
What is Business Boost 360 AI?+
Business Boost 360 AI is a salon CRM that covers billing and invoices, customers, appointments and follow-ups, services, staff, attendance, salary and incentives, inventory, prepaid packages, loyalty and cashback, WhatsApp bill sharing, reports and analytics, welcome rewards, referrals, branches and user permissions.
Who is it for?+
Salon owners and their teams — owners, managers, receptionists and beauticians. It is built for non-technical users who run a salon day to day.
Is there a free trial?+
Yes. Every new salon gets full CRM access free during the trial, and nothing is charged during that period.
How long is the trial?+
30 days. The Dashboard and Subscription page show the days remaining and you get a reminder as the trial nears its end.
What happens after the trial?+
You continue on Business Boost CRM at ₹599 per month. Nothing is deleted if your payment is still pending — the Subscription page shows a clear payment-required state and your salon data stays safe.
How much does it cost?+
₹599 per month, billed monthly after the 30-day free trial.
How many branches are included?+
The current Business Boost CRM plan includes 1 branch.
Can I manage customers?+
Yes. Each customer is identified by mobile number, and the profile holds visit history, bills, packages and wallet (cashback) balance.
Can I create bills?+
Yes. Create a bill from Billing or Reception with services, packages, discount and cashback redemption. Saving generates the invoice number, and wrong bills are voided with a reason rather than deleted.
Can I manage staff?+
Yes. Staff records, attendance, salary profiles and service or category based incentive rules are all included. Staff who leave are archived so past bills and payouts stay intact.
Can I track inventory?+
Yes. Products carry purchase price, selling price, GST and stock levels, with stock-in and stock-out entries and a minimum stock level for low-stock visibility.
Can I manage loyalty and cashback?+
Yes. You set the welcome reward, cashback earning and redemption slabs in Loyalty & Rules. Cashback is credited to the customer wallet when a bill is saved and is calculated on the server.
Can I use WhatsApp?+
Yes. After saving a bill, the WhatsApp button opens WhatsApp with the invoice summary ready to send to the customer. Your Instagram and Google Review links are included when they are enabled in Settings.
Can I manage appointments?+
Yes. Book a customer for a service with a staff member, date and time, and update the status as they arrive or complete. Follow-ups help you bring customers back.
Can I manage referrals?+
Yes. Refer & Earn gives you a referral link and lead tracking. When a referred salon goes live you earn BB Points, and a completed referral cycle unlocks free subscription days.
Can I manage user permissions?+
Yes. Owners and Managers get full access; receptionists and beauticians get only the modules you tick in Users. Financial Dashboard and Reports are separate permissions, and everything is enforced on the server.
Is online payment available?+
No. Online payment is not enabled yet, so nothing is ever charged automatically. The Business Boost team activates your subscription — contact support and we will take it from there.
What is Business Boost AI?+
Business Boost AI is our planned automation layer on top of the CRM: automatic follow-ups, birthday wishes and offers, personalised offers, cross-selling and service recommendations, customer visit and behaviour analysis, re-engagement of inactive customers, automated campaigns and AI-generated insights — always within the limits the salon owner sets. It is not available yet.
When will Business Boost AI be available?+
It is marked Coming Soon and is not purchasable today. The planned price is ₹1,499 per month. Contact support if you would like to be told when it launches.
Can I enter an old bill?+
Yes. The bill date can be backdated when you create the bill, so you can bring earlier billing history into the CRM instead of starting from zero.
Can I assign different staff members to different services on one bill?+
Yes. Each service line on a bill carries its own staff member, so credit and incentives reflect who actually performed the service.
Which payment methods can I record on a bill?+
Cash, UPI and card, along with the payment status of the bill, so pending payments stay visible on the Dashboard.
Can I use my own UPI QR code?+
Yes. Upload your salon's UPI QR in Settings and customers can scan your own QR to pay at the counter.
Can I add my salon logo?+
Yes. Upload your salon logo in Settings and it is used for your salon identity inside the CRM and on your bills, which also carry a small "Powered by Business Boost 360 AI" credit.
How does cashback redemption work — percentage or slabs?+
You choose the redemption method in Loyalty & Rules: either a percentage of the bill or wallet slabs that cap the redeemable amount by the customer's wallet balance. Redemption is enforced on the server within the limits you set.
Can I receive low-stock alerts?+
Yes. Each product has a "Low Stock Alert At" level, and products at or below that level are flagged as low stock, including on the Dashboard.
Can I store supplier contact details?+
Yes. Inventory holds the supplier name and supplier mobile / WhatsApp number alongside the product, so reordering does not mean searching your phone.
Can I mark attendance for a future date?+
No. Attendance can be marked for today and past dates only — future dates are not allowed, so records stay accurate.
Can I use the CRM from my phone?+
Yes. The CRM runs in your phone's browser with mobile navigation, a mobile-friendly Bills list and forms and pop-ups that scroll properly on small screens. No app install is needed.
How do I contact support?+
Use the Support Assistant inside the CRM for instant answers, or reach the team by email or phone from the Contact Support page.
