Accounting and invoicing for barbershops
Haircut, beard care, shave and products: a barbershop lives on regulars and rented chairs. Saldiqo creates rent invoices for barbers, records purchases of products and devices and shows whether chairs, products and appointments pay off.

Many barbershops rent out chairs to self-employed barbers. The rent repeats every month.
Product sales
