Frequently Asked Questions - Online Sales

Everything you need to know about making retail sales through your Online Store.

How can I view my Online Store?  
Click the shopping cart on your dashboard: How do I view my online store?


Do I need a retail license to sell online?
Technically your online sales are made through SalonInteractive, so we collect and report the sales tax. You, therefore, do not need a retail license if you only sell through your Online Store.

What is the commission rate for salons
Salons get a minimum of 25% of each sale without having to stock, ship, or pay for the products. 

Should I pay a commission to my service providers when their clients purchase online?

What happens to my commissions if there is a return?  
Commissions are paid based on completed transactions. And since returns are not complete transactions, unfortunately, commissions are not applicable. Any commissions already paid on returned orders will be recovered from commissions owed to you currently or for future sales.

What is the return policy for salon clients?  
You can find the current return policy here: Return Policy - Online Client Purchases


How do Subscriptions work?  
When your client is signed in and chooses a product, they will see the option to purchase that product the one time or as a subscription in 2-week to 6-month intervals. Your clients can edit their subscription at any time through their profile: What are Product Subscriptions


Can I change the order the brands display?  
Not at this time, as your Online Store displays your brands alphabetically.

Do products on my Online Store ever become out of stock?
It is fairly rare, but some products may be temporarily out of stock. The brand or distributor is usually able to remedy their inventory pretty quickly.
