Nextro

Booking software for

Spray tan artists

Event-season spray tans require perfect timing — clients want their tan to peak for the occasion. Nextro handles the booking, the preparation reminders, and the upfront payment so you focus on the application, not the admin.

The problems you're solving

01

Clients book last-minute without preparing correctly

A spray tan requires exfoliation, shaved legs, and no moisturiser on the day. Clients who don't know this arrive unprepared and end up with patchy results — which they blame on the tan, not their prep. Instructions sent through DMs are easy to miss.

02

Event-season demand creates booking chaos

Prom week, the weeks before Christmas, and summer wedding season all see a spike in demand. Managing this through Instagram messages while simultaneously tanning clients is impossible without a real booking system.

03

Mobile tanning adds travel time that clients don't account for

A 30-minute mobile spray tan appointment requires 20 minutes of travel each way. Clients who book informally don't always communicate location details in advance, creating scheduling inefficiency.

04

Bank transfer deposits arrive late or not at all

Asking clients to send a deposit by bank transfer before their appointment is a common but unreliable approach. Transfers are delayed, clients forget, and you end up chasing payment before you've even started.

How Nextro solves it

What you get

Preparation instructions built into the booking page

Add exfoliation, shaving, and moisturiser guidance directly to your spray tan service on your booking page. Clients read it before they confirm — not on the day of the appointment.

Card payment at booking, not at the door

Every client pays upfront via Stripe when they book. Event-day spray tans — especially on the day of a wedding or prom — need confirmed payment in advance. No bank transfer uncertainty.

Mobile and studio bookings in the same system

List mobile home visits and studio spray tans as separate services with different durations. Travel time can be built into the mobile service duration so your schedule reflects the full commitment.

24-hour prep reminder emails

Nextro sends a reminder 24 hours before every appointment. For spray tans, this is the ideal moment for clients to re-read their preparation instructions.

Event-season availability management

Open additional slots during prom week, wedding season, or the run-up to Christmas. Your booking page shows exactly what's available in real time — no overbooking, no missed enquiries.

Rebooking prompts for regular clients

For clients who maintain a regular tanning schedule — monthly self-tan maintenance, for example — Nextro's rebooking nudge keeps them on their cycle.

Questions answered

Common questions

Answers about booking, payments, and getting started with Nextro.

How can spray tan artists make sure clients prepare correctly?

Add preparation instructions to each spray tan service on your Nextro booking page — exfoliation required 24 hours before, shaved legs, no moisturiser. Clients read this during the booking flow. Nextro also sends a reminder email 24 hours before the appointment, which is another opportunity to reinforce the preparation steps.

Do mobile spray tan artists need different booking management than studio-based artists?

Mobile artists should list their mobile service separately from any studio service. The mobile service duration can include travel time, so your schedule accurately reflects your availability. You can also add a note about your travel radius or minimum travel distance.

How should spray tan artists handle the pre-Christmas and prom booking surge?

Nextro shows your live availability in real time. During high-demand periods, simply open more slots in your availability settings. Clients see and book what's available — no manual coordination required.

What is the best way for spray tan artists to take deposits?

Nextro takes the full service price upfront at the time of booking via Stripe. This is more reliable than a partial bank transfer deposit and eliminates the admin of chasing transfers. Clients pay once, by card, when they book.

Can I manage both rapid and overnight spray tan appointments in the same system?

Yes. List each tan type as a separate service — rapid (2-hour development), express (4-hour), overnight — with its own duration and price. Clients choose exactly what they want.
