With SumUp’s central dashboard, you can monitor all your transactions — whether it's a card payment at the counter or an invoice for a private event. Everything is stored in one place, which is a huge advantage when managing payment processing for restaurants.

You have two options to receive payouts: either the free SumUp Business Account or your own bank account. The perk of the Business Account? You’ll always receive your earnings by 7am the next day – even on weekends and bank holidays. No extra cost, no catch. Plus, you'll get a free Mastercard for all your business expenses. If you choose to use your own bank account, your funds will arrive in 1-2 business days.

Your money will appear in your free Business Account the next day at 7am – even on weekends and bank holidays. You can then spend or withdraw your money using your complementary Mastercard. If you prefer, you can opt to receive payouts directly to any other bank account, with funds arriving within 1-2 business days.

A good POS system for beauty salons should help you manage bookings, take payments smoothly and keep track of services and products. SumUp’s POS for beauty salons does all that, with tools designed to simplify your day, whether you’re running a busy salon or working solo.

Yes. SumUp Bookings is free with no monthly fees or contracts. You get a professional booking page with smart scheduling software that handles automated reminders, calendars and online payments, and only pay a 2.5% transaction fee per online payment from a client.
