The Baela difference
Built provider-first. On purpose.
01
Keep your clients
Your clients and your relationships are yours. You rebook them, you message them, you own your book.
02
Keep your money
15% per service, and 100% of your tips stay yours. Join now and lock 10% for life as a founding provider. The other apps take 40 to 60%. In this economy?
03
Same-day pay options
Cash out the same day for a small fee, or free in a few days. Either way, not next week.
04
Grow off the app too
Your booking link rides on your Google profile and your Instagram bio, turning searches and followers into appointments. TikTok, coming soon. Want your own site? We'll build and host it too, running on your same Baela calendar, so every door leads to the same booked week.
05
Run your whole business
Booking, payments, marketing, and client notes, all in one place. Keep their history and SOAP notes so every client keeps coming back.
06
Everything, in writing
Your agreement, policies, pay history, and tax forms live right in the app. Sign onboarding paperwork from your phone, and pull up any document in a tap. No digging through email, no waiting on support.
Your Craft, Your Brand×BAELA
We've got your back
You're not walking in blind.
You should know who you're walking up to, and have a way out if you ever need one. Both are built in.
01
Clients aren't anonymous
Everyone's ID-verified with a card on file before they can book you. No mystery bookings.
02
Walk away if you need to
Your safety comes before any booking. If something feels wrong, end the session and go, then report it. We review every report.
03
Bad actors get removed
Report inappropriate behavior and we investigate fast. Clients who cross the line lose access, not a free pass to book the next person.
04
Covered when you go mobile
Heading to a client's place? Check in and out of every visit, and keep a one-tap SOS that calls 911 and alerts a trusted contact. A discreet safety net, every time.
How it works
Verified to paid, fast.
- 1
Apply and get verified
License, insurance, ID, and a background check. The Verified badge is what gets clients booking you with confidence.
- 2
Set up your page and link
Your profile, your booking link, and your QR for your bio. Bring what you've got, or build it from scratch.
- 3
Take bookings
Clients book you directly. You set your hours, your rates, your rules.
- 4
Same-day pay options
They pay in the app, and you choose how fast: same day for a small fee, or free in a few days. Keep your cut and 100% of tips.
Verification usually takes just a few days. When you go live depends on demand in your area. We bring providers on in waves, so your market never floods and there are real clients to book when you're in.
Who it's for
For every independent pro.
Massage, hair, lashes, nails, brows, esthetics. Launching, going independent, renting a chair, or growing your book. Baela meets you where you are.
Good questions
The short answers.
Do I really keep my clients?
Yes. Your clients and your relationships are yours. How that's protected is spelled out in your provider agreement, but the short version: we never get between you and your people.
What's the fee?
15% per service, and 0% on tips. Founding providers lock 10% for life, so if you join the waitlist now, that rate stays yours as we grow. The other apps take 40 to 60%.
I rent a chair and already keep most of my money. Is this for me?
Yes. If you rent, your win isn't a smaller cut, it's everything rent doesn't give you. New clients you didn't have to chase, same-day pay, and your booking, payments, and marketing in one place. Keep working how you work. Baela brings the clients and the tools.
How is this different from a booking app I already use?
Most apps hand you software and bring you no clients. Baela brings the demand, plus provider-first economics and same-day pay, on top of the booking tools. You're not paying for another calendar. You're getting booked.
Do I have to leave my salon or switch everything over?
No. Work wherever you already do, salon, suite, your own studio, or mobile. Baela runs alongside how you already work, and your clients and your book stay yours.
How fast do I get paid?
Same day if you want it, for a small instant-pay fee (about 2.5%), or free within 1 to 3 business days. Either way, faster than the week you wait now.
How long until I'm approved?
Verification (ID, background check, and your credentials where they apply) usually takes a few days. Going live can take a little longer, because we bring providers on in waves based on client demand in your area. We'd rather not flood your market, so when we bring you on, there are clients ready to book. Founding providers in each area go first.
Where is Baela available?
We're rolling out city by city, based on where providers and clients sign up. Join the waitlist, tell us your city, and we'll bring you on the moment we're live near you.
When does it launch?
Soon. Join the waitlist and we'll bring you on the moment we go live.
Join the waitlist
Lock 10% for life.
Standard commission is 15%. Join now as a founding provider and you keep 10% forever, grandfathered as we grow. We bring providers on in waves by area, and founders go first.
