FAQs

How much is set up?

Set up and training are free for businesses with 2 or more staff. We set up your account with your prices & timings. We even import your client contact details. Unlike other software systems who charge for training or only offer Help Articles, we offer free 1-2-1 training to get you up and running

How long is the contract?

We don’t do contracts as standard. We believe you will love Slick so much you will never want to leave and if you do need to leave because your salon is closing then we want to be there to support & help. The only time we offer a contract is if you ask for one to lock in a price.

What do I need to run Slick?

Slick will run on any modern iPad or desktop. All you need is WIFI in your salon and an iPad or computer. Our onboarding team will run tests during your setup to ensure Slick runs smoothly in your salon.
