Payment Setup
Salonnare works with three payment providers: Stripe, Mollie, and SumUp. You can use one, two, or all three depending on how your salon accepts payments. All of them are optional — if you only take cash, you don't need to connect anything.
Stripe — Online payments and no-show fees
Stripe handles online card payments. It's also required if you want to charge no-show fees (payment links sent by email).
Connecting with Stripe Connect (recommended)
The easiest way to connect is through Stripe Connect. It links your Stripe account directly to Salonnare.
- Go to Settings and find Integrations > Stripe.
- Click Connect with Stripe.
- You'll be taken to Stripe's website to create or link your account. Just follow the steps.
- When you're done, you'll be sent back to Salonnare. You'll see the status change to Connected.
That's all you need to do. Payments are ready to go.
Using your own Stripe keys
If you prefer to connect manually:
- Log in to your Stripe account at stripe.com.
- Find your Secret key in the Developers section.
- In Salonnare, go to Settings > Integrations > Stripe.
- Paste your secret key.
- Also copy and paste your Webhook secret (Stripe uses this to notify Salonnare about completed payments).
- Click Save.
Mollie — iDEAL, credit card, and more
Mollie is popular in the Netherlands and supports payment methods like iDEAL, credit card, Bancontact, and more. It's great for online payments.
Connecting with Mollie Connect (recommended)
- Go to Settings > Integrations > Mollie.
- Click Connect with Mollie.
- Authorize access on the Mollie website.
- You'll be redirected back to Salonnare and the status shows Connected.
Using your own Mollie key
- Log in to your Mollie dashboard.
- Find your Live API key in the Developers section.
- In Salonnare, paste it into Settings > Integrations > Mollie.
- Click Save.
SumUp — In-person card payments
SumUp is for taking card payments in person with a card reader terminal. When you process a card payment at the register, Salonnare automatically connects to your SumUp terminal.
- Log in to your SumUp merchant account.
- Go to your integration settings and generate an API key.
- In Salonnare, go to Settings > Integrations > SumUp.
- Enter:
- API key — From your SumUp account.
- Merchant code — Found in your SumUp profile.
- Reader ID — The serial number on the back of your card terminal.
- Click Save.
Once set up, card payments at the register route to your SumUp terminal automatically. The client taps or inserts their card, and the payment is processed.
Which one should I use?
Here's a simple guide:
| Situation | What you need |
|---|---|
| You only take cash | No payment integration needed |
| You want to accept cards in person | SumUp |
| You want to accept online payments | Stripe or Mollie |
| You want to charge no-show fees | Stripe (required) |
| You serve Dutch clients online | Mollie (for iDEAL) |
| You want all options | Set up all three |
Payment links
Salonnare can send payment links to clients by email — for example, for no-show fees or deposits. When a client clicks the link, they see a secure payment page hosted by Stripe. Once they pay, Salonnare is automatically notified and records the payment.
Payment links expire after 7 days by default.
