Loyalty and booking apps for local retail and salons
Keepport builds loyalty, booking and shop apps for salons, spas, boutiques and specialty stores. A typical build costs about $4,000, launches in six to eight weeks on iPhone and Android, and is maintained for $299 a month on a care plan. Stamp cards live on the phone, appointments book in two taps, and product drops reach customers by push instead of a discounted social post.

Your own app vs Square Appointments, Vagaro or a loyalty SaaS
Rented software is fine until the fees, the branding and the data lock-in add up. This is what changes when the app is yours.
| Square Appointments, Vagaro or a loyalty SaaS | Keepport app | |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $30–$300 plus loyalty add-ons | $299 Care Plan, everything in one app |
| Branding | Their app or a web link | Your app in the stores |
| Client data | Locked in their system | Yours, exportable |
| Push notifications | Extra or not available | Included |
| Ownership | Subscription | You own the code |
Loyalty and booking subscriptions for a single salon run $30 to $300 a month, and custom loyalty apps from US vendors start around $5,000 for a stamp card and $25,000 for a full program.
