A cut above the rest.

Royal Cuts AIQ is the merchant services and online booking platform purpose-built for barbershops — so you can fill your chair, take payment, and get paid.

We help you get found.

SEO and search optimization is built into the service. We tune your site, Google profile, and reviews so local clients searching "barber near me" find your chair first.

We fund the barber directly.

Stop waiting on multi-day payouts and chasing tip splits. Royal Cuts AIQ funds each barber's bank account as appointments are completed — no middle ledger between you and your money.

Lower card fees, period.

Other platforms take a chunk of every cut. Our merchant services are priced for barbershops, so more of every credit card purchase stays in your pocket.

Built for the whole shop — or just you

Roll in as a shop. Or roll in solo.

Bring your entire team on Royal Cuts AIQ, or onboard just the barbers who want in. Either way, every barber owns their schedule and gets paid directly for the work they do.

The whole shop

Run the shop from one dashboard — chairs, staff, services, and reporting in one place. Each barber still keeps their own calendar and payouts.

  • • Shop-wide booking page with every barber listed
  • • Owner view of revenue, retention, and chair utilization
  • • Per-barber payouts straight to their own bank account

Just you

Booth renter or solo barber? Sign up on your own — no shop required. Get a personal booking link, take card payments, and keep what you earn.

  • • Your own booking page and client list
  • • Full control of your schedule, services, and pricing
  • • Funds deposited directly to your bank as you work

Every barber — shop member or solo — gets full access to their schedule and their money for the work they do. No shared pots. No waiting on the owner to cut a check.

Features that pay for themselves

Built for return on investment — not gimmicks

Every feature earns its place by putting money back in the chair: fewer empty slots, faster cash, lower fees, and more repeat clients.

Fewer no-shows

Protects lost chair time

Automatic text reminders and deposits keep booked slots paid. One saved no-show a week covers the subscription.

Instant payouts

Cash in hand, same day

Each barber's share deposits straight to their own bank as appointments close — no Friday reconciliation.

Barber-priced processing

Keep more of every ticket

Card rates built for barbershop volume, with no surprise add-on fees for AI or a landing page.

Rebooking prompts

More repeat visits

Clients get nudged when they're due, so regulars come back on schedule instead of drifting to another shop.

Google review automation

More new clients found you

Happy clients are asked for a Google review after every cut — better ranking in local search.

Hours back every week

Less admin, more cutting

Online booking, payments, and reporting in one place replaces DMs, notes, and five separate apps.
