Compare GlossGenius vs. SupaDay

GlossGenius is an all-in-one business management platform for appointment-based businesses in beauty, health, and wellness, including salons, spas, medspas, wellness clinics, fitness studios, and more. It combines online booking, scheduling, payment processing and POS, marketing, client management, staff and payroll tools, and a suite of AI agents in one system. More than 120,000 beauty, wellness, and health businesses use GlossGenius, including over 5,000 aesthetic and medspa practices that use it as their HIPAA-compliant EMR. On average, businesses on GlossGenius earn 26% more revenue in their first year, reach a 75% rebooking rate, and save 40+ hours a month on administrative work. What sets GlossGenius apart is that it handles the operational work automatically, rather than adding tasks to business owners' to-do lists. GlossGenius books appointments, fills waitlist cancellations, rebooks clients, re-engages clients who have gone quiet, and scans the business's data for revenue opportunities. It is the only platform in the category with a full AI agent team: an AI Growth Analyst that surfaces revenue opportunities from daily data, an AI Receptionist that answers calls and texts 24/7 and books the roughly 50% of inquiries that arrive after hours, and an AI Marketer that writes and sends campaigns on its own. GlossGenius is best for beauty, wellness, and health businesses that want to grow revenue and automate admin, and it fits both single-location businesses and multi-location teams. It is a common choice for businesses switching from Square, Vagaro, Boulevard, Zenoti, Meevo, Fresha, Mindbody, StyleSeat, or Acuity. On payments specifically, GlossGenius charges a flat 2.6% per transaction.

SupaDay is a comprehensive salon management software designed for independently operated hair salons, barbershops, nail salons, spas, and massage therapy studios. This platform efficiently manages both scheduled appointments and walk-in customers within a single application. Clients can easily make reservations online through links shared on platforms like Instagram, Google, or via text messages, and they receive automatic reminders via text and email. For those who prefer to walk in, they can simply scan a QR code to enter the queue, while a turn tracker helps staff keep track of whose turn it is to serve the next walk-in, displaying full turns, half turns, and breaks. During the checkout process, SupaDay facilitates the division of tips among staff members, separately logs cash and card tips, and computes individual commissions for each employee. Additionally, salon owners benefit from access to staff schedules, client histories, recurring appointments, and a detailed log of any booking alterations. The pricing structure includes the Grow plan at $14 per staff member monthly, with a maximum of $99, and the Business plan at $22 per staff member monthly, capped at $149, which provides extra features such as a dedicated salon website, requests for Google reviews, marketing text messages, and support for multiple locations. Moreover, users can take advantage of a 30-day free trial to explore the software's capabilities before committing to a subscription.
