Keep Client History, Notes and Loyalty in One Record

A salon CRM is only useful if it connects to what actually happens at the front desk. SoftBela ties client records directly to bookings and checkout, so history and notes build automatically over time.

Automatic visit history

Every appointment and checkout adds to a client's history without manual data entry.

Staff notes per client

Record preferences, allergies or formulas so any staff member can pick up where the last visit left off.

Loyalty points

Track points earned per visit as a simple built-in loyalty program for repeat clients.

Segments for outreach

Group clients into segments based on visit patterns to plan targeted outreach.

Client records built from real activity

Rather than requiring staff to manually log what happened at each visit, SoftBela's customer records update automatically as appointments are booked and checkouts are completed. This means the visit history shown on a client profile is a direct reflection of bookings and payments already recorded elsewhere in the system, not a separate log that someone has to remember to fill in. Over time this builds an accurate picture of how often a client visits, what services they choose and how much they typically spend.

  • Visit history populated from bookings and checkouts
  • No separate manual logging required
  • Accurate record of frequency and spend per client
  • Same record used across booking and checkout screens

Notes that travel with the client, not the staff member

When client preferences exist only in one stylist's memory or a personal notebook, that information is lost if the staff member is away or leaves the business. SoftBela lets staff attach notes to a client profile, such as a color formula, a preferred pressure during a massage, or an allergy to a certain product. Any staff member serving that client later can see the same notes, which helps maintain consistent service even when a client is seen by someone different from their usual stylist or therapist.

  • Notes attached directly to the client profile
  • Visible to any staff member, not just one person
  • Useful for formulas, preferences and allergies
  • Reduces reliance on staff memory alone

A loyalty program without extra software

SoftBela includes loyalty points as part of the customer record, giving salons a simple way to reward repeat visits without integrating a separate loyalty platform. Points accumulate as clients visit and can be tracked from the same screen where staff view a client's history and notes. This suits salons that want to offer a loyalty incentive but do not want the overhead of managing a third-party program with its own login and reporting separate from the rest of the business.

  • Loyalty points tracked as part of the client profile
  • No separate loyalty platform to manage
  • Visible alongside visit history and notes
  • Included in the standard subscription

Segmenting clients for smarter outreach

Not every client should be treated the same way when it comes to promotions or reminders. Customer segments let a salon group clients based on patterns such as frequency of visits or types of services booked, which can help prioritize where attention goes, for example toward clients who used to visit regularly but have not booked recently. This turns the CRM data collected through everyday bookings and checkouts into something a salon can actively use for retention rather than just a passive record.

  • Clients grouped into segments based on activity
  • Useful for identifying lapsed regular clients
  • Built from existing booking and checkout data
  • No manual list-building required

CRM as part of the whole platform

Customer records, notes, loyalty points and segments are included in SoftBela's single 20 USD monthly subscription, alongside the calendar, booking page, point of sale, staff, inventory and reports. There is no separate CRM license or per-client fee. A 48-hour free trial allows a salon to add real clients, book real appointments and see how the history and notes build up before committing to a paid plan, which can be cancelled at any time.

  • CRM included with every other module
  • No per-client or per-record fee
  • 48-hour free trial to see it with real clients

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to manually enter client visit history?

No. Visit history builds automatically from appointments booked and checkouts completed, so there is no separate log to keep updated by hand.

Can more than one staff member see the notes on a client?

Yes. Notes are attached to the client profile itself, so any staff member with system access can see preferences, formulas or allergy notes left by a previous appointment.

Does SoftBela include a loyalty program?

Yes. Loyalty points are tracked as part of each client profile, giving salons a built-in way to reward repeat visits without a separate loyalty platform.

Is the CRM data private to my business?

Yes. SoftBela runs on Supabase Postgres with row level security, meaning each business's customer records are isolated and not visible to other businesses on the platform.
