Running 2+ locations? Idle handles centralised control with per-store autonomy.

Multi-store beauty operations have a different problem than single shops: every store has its own staff, services, and rhythm, but the group needs consolidated reporting, central control, and a consistent client experience.

At a glance

Groups with 2+ locations, regional managers, central marketing teams, or franchise-style operations.

What matters at this stage

Per-store settings, central reporting

Each store has its own staff, services, and pricing if needed. Consolidated reporting at the group level.

Cross-store role-based access

Owners see everything. Managers see their stores. Stylists see only their bookings. All from one Idle account.

Centralised CRM

Clients booked at any store sit in one central CRM, so you can reach them on WhatsApp in one tap. Automated group marketing campaigns are included.

GST consolidation

Multiple stores under one GST registration roll up into a single GST report for filing.

Frequently asked questions

How does Idle handle multi-store reporting?

Each store has its own dashboard. The group view aggregates across stores with filters by store, region, or staff. GST rolls up to the parent entity.

Can I have different services or pricing per store?

Yes. Each store can have its own service catalogue, pricing, and staff. The group-level catalogue is optional but useful if you want consistency.

How does staff access work across stores?

Staff can be assigned to one or multiple stores. Permissions are role-based and respect store boundaries. A manager at one store doesn't see another store's data unless given access.

How long does multi-store onboarding take?

Typically 5-15 business days depending on the number of stores, data complexity, and whether you're migrating from another platform. Discovery call sizes the timeline.
