How does it work?
SlickPay split payments allows all self employed staff to be paid directly into their accounts with no fuss. It doesn't matter if it's deposits, charging their card remotely at check out or through the handy SlickPay card reader... we've got you covered!
The Slick smart check out will assess which staff member was checked out and how much their service cost.
At this point, the exact amount the stylist is owed will be sent to their bank.

What is there are 2 stylists and another payment method at checkout?
In the event of another payment method being used at check out, the system will pro-rate the SlickPay card amount by % of service done.
For example,
Total cost of appointment - £100
Colour stylist - £60
Cut stylist - £40
Card paid - £60
Cash paid - £40
Split would be £40 cash into till.
Colour stylist (60%) £36, cut stylist (40%) £24.
To avoid any confusion, we advise checking out the services separately to send the exact amount to the correct stylist.
What about deposits paid to self employed staff?
In this case, the deposit will be pro rated between the 2 stylists.
Eg, a booking is made where..
Service 1 is £50
Service 2 is £30
Deposit for the salon is set to 50% so the stylist for service 1 gets £25 and stylist for service 2 gets £15.
How does this deposit affect check out and reports?
In this example the client books a £100 appointment online which is split across 2 services with 2 different staff.
Highlights £70 with Stylist A
Blowdry £30 with Stylist B
If the salon has a 50% online deposits enabled, the client pays £50 deposit at time of booking.
That deposit will be pro-rated and paid out as follows:
70% (because £70 service out of £100 total) of £50 = £35 is paid out to Stylist A (minus fees)
30% (because £30 service out of £100 total) of £50 = £15 is paid out to Stylist B (minus fees)
Then, at checkout, the bill will look like this:
Highlights £70 Stylist A
Blowdry £30 Stylist B
Total bill £100
Minus deposit redeemed of £50
Total to pay £50
Assuming client pays the £50 via SlickPay (card on file online or via card reader) then this payment will be prorated and paid out as follows.
70% of £50 = £35 is paid out to Stylist A (minus fees)
30% of £50 = £15 is paid out to Stylist B (minus fees)
So, if it all happened on the same day, their payouts would look like the below:
STYLIST A
STYLIST B
