A multi-outlet salon owner reviewing the business on a tablet

Multi-Store: Run every outlet from one login.

Switch between outlets in one tap, each with its own hours, prices, taxes and branding. One account for the whole business, one truth for every location.

At a glance

Idle runs unlimited outlets from one account. Switch between stores in one tap, give each team member access only to their store, and each location keeps its own hours, prices, taxes and branding. You get reporting per store and across the whole business, so every outlet stays its own thing while the company stays one thing.

An owner switching between outlets on a tablet

One login, every outlet.

A store switcher sits at the top of Idle. Tap it and you are in another outlet instantly, with its own settings, staff and branding already in place. No separate logins, no spreadsheets shuttling numbers between locations.

Switch in one tap

Jump between outlets from the same screen, with each store's calendar, prices and team ready the moment you land.

One account, no extra logins

Add a store and it joins the same account. There is nothing new to sign into and nothing to reconcile by hand.

A manager reviewing staff and roles for one outlet

The right people see the right store.

Set per-store roles so each team member only sees the outlet they belong to. Owners see everything across the group, while a site manager sees just their store. The same person can hold different roles in different outlets, and Idle keeps it straight.

Per-store roles

Staff are scoped to their outlet, so they see their own bookings, clients and tools, and nothing from other stores.

Owners see the whole group

Get consolidated reporting across every outlet, plus per-store views for the managers who run each location.

Running outlets from scattered tools is how the numbers go wrong.

A separate login per outlet

Juggling a different account for every store means logging out and back in just to check on another location.

Spreadsheets to compare locations

Copying figures between sheets to line up outlets is slow, and a single typo quietly throws the whole comparison off.

No single view of the business

Without one place to see every store, you cannot tell at a glance which outlet is busy, which is quiet, or where to act.

A checkout counter at one outlet of a salon group

Consistent, not identical.

Roll out a service, a price change or a promotion to the outlets you choose, and keep each store's local hours and branding exactly as they are. Standardise what should be the same across the group, and leave room for what makes each location its own.

Roll out where you want it

Apply a change to one outlet, a few, or all of them, so the group stays aligned without overriding what works locally.

Local hours and branding stay put

Each store keeps its own opening times, look and receipts, so customers always see the outlet they actually visit.

Everything in Multi-Store

One account for the whole business, with each outlet kept its own, and deeper group tooling whenever you want it.

Multi-store FAQ

Can I run multiple salon locations on one Idle account?

Yes. You can run unlimited stores within one business on a single account, each with its own hours, services, taxes, payment methods, and branding. Switch between any of them in one tap.

Are reports consolidated across stores?

Yes. The group analytics dashboard shows revenue, staff utilisation, and service performance across every store. Per-store dashboards remain available for the site managers who only need their own outlet.

Can a staff member work across multiple stores?

Yes. One staff record can be assigned to multiple stores, with different roles per store, for example Manager at Midtown and Stylist at Uptown. Permissions follow the store, not the person, so each team member only sees the outlet they belong to.

Does each store keep its own brand and tax details?

Yes. Every store keeps its own hours, prices, taxes and branding. Customer-facing receipts and booking pages show each store's own brand and tax details, while you still see the whole business in one place.
