[The offer in full](https://meetscarlet.com/founding/) - Your app: iPhone, Android and web, under your own store accounts ## See how it works in under 2 minutes If your members still call the desk to ask whether a bed is free, this video shows what changes when your salon has its own app: they book a bed before they walk in, see which beds their plan covers, and check in from their phone. Our team sets it all up, from your beds and levels to the App Store. ## What your clients do in the app Your clients download an app with your name on it from the App Store or Google Play, or open it on the web. In it they can: - Book a bed or booth by the time slot - See which bed levels their plan covers before they pick a bed - Check in at the desk with the pass in their app - Buy an unlimited plan or a pack of minutes and see what is left - Pay by card and keep a card on file - See upcoming bookings and cancel or reschedule inside your rules ## Made for how tanning salons work ### Bed levels tied to memberships Tag each bed with its level. A client's plan says which levels it covers, and the app marks beds above their level as not covered before they pick one. ### Unlimited plans and minute packs Two tanning plan types come ready: unlimited tanning and packs of minutes. Clients see their balance in the app, and plans renew or run down on their own. ### Check-in from the client's phone The pass in the app shows a code that refreshes every 30 seconds and works once, so an old screenshot stops working within about a minute. ### A notice before every session Show your own notice before a bed booking, such as skin-type guidance. It comes with sensible wording you can change. ## What we set up for you For a tanning salon we add each bed and booth with its level, set your slot lengths, create your unlimited and minute plans and which levels each one covers, and write the notice clients see before a session. We import your client list from a spreadsheet or CSV export and do the App Store and Google Play submission work in your own developer accounts. Your web app's link is ready during setup, and members can book there as soon as you choose your MeetScarlet plan, so your web app can be live within days. The iPhone and Android apps follow about 4 to 6 weeks after your Apple and Google developer accounts are ready, most of it Apple's enrollment. Members keep the same account when the store apps launch. Want the detail on how the store side works?

The app pays off when clients come back each week. - Salons that want spray-tan artists booked by the hour alongside beds in one view; ask us on a demo how you would set it up.

See it with your own name: [preview a tanning salon's app on the homepage](https://meetscarlet.com/?biz=tanning#top) and type your business name. ## Questions Straight answers. Anything else, ask us on a demo. ### Can members see which beds their plan covers? Yes. The app marks beds above a member's level as not covered before they pick one, so they choose a bed their plan includes. ### Can I sell unlimited tanning and minute packs? Yes. Unlimited tanning plans and packs of minutes are both built in, and clients see what they have left in the app. ### How do clients check in? They show the pass in their app at the desk. Its code refreshes every 30 seconds and works once, so an old screenshot stops working within about a minute. ### Can I show a safety notice before a session? Yes. Clients see your notice, such as skin-type guidance, before they book a bed. ### How much does a branded app for a tanning salon cost? $349 a month, or $499 a month on MeetScarlet Pro, which adds 20 staff logins, push announcements, and text reminders for appointments (coming soon). Setup is $999 on monthly billing and free on yearly billing. ## Keep reading - [Memberships and class packs MeetScarlet is a membership app for studios, gyms and salons: sell memberships, class packs, credits and minute packs in your own branded app. From $349 a month.](https://meetscarlet.com/features/memberships/) - [Best tanning salon software (2026) Six tanning salon software options compared on price, bed booking, timer control and plans, with MeetScarlet as our pick for an app with your salon's name.](https://meetscarlet.com/guides/best-tanning-salon-software/) - [Hair and beauty salons Your salon's own booking app: book by stylist, deposits, intake questions, rebook prompts and salon memberships.
