The Philippines’ number one lifestyle e-wallet makes booking salon
appointments easy and convenient as it partners with Parlon, the go-to platform
for beauty and wellness services.
Through this partnership, beauty and wellness enthusiasts can
prepay and book their salon and wellness appointments by simply finding Parlon
partners in the “services” category of GLife. Over 20 partner establishments
are currently live in GLife with more salons and beauty clinics expected to
come in the future. Consequently, this also allows the salons to have their
very own app page within GCash—providing more accessible and convenient venues
to sell their services and reach at least 60 million registered GCash users.
“We're thrilled to partner with Parlon to provide easy and
convenient payment solutions for customers from its partner salons. This way,
customers can completely enjoy their me-time, knowing that they've already
booked and paid their salon appointment
beforehand,” said Martha Sazon, President and CEO of GCash.
Global and homegrown salon favorites like Browhaus, Strip,
Emphasis Salon, The Smile Bar, Benibana, Azta Urban Salon, O2 Skin Lab, Lay
Bare, Vine Aesthetics, Marqed Salon, and The Secret Lounge, are just some of
the Parlon partners that are available in GLife.
“The beauty and wellness industry has faced unprecedented
challenges for the past two years. In Parlon, our thrust for 2022 is to help
our partners accept bookings and payments everywhere. We are honored to have
partnered with GCash in playing our part in reviving the economy as we help the
country and this beautiful industry bounce back higher,” said Claire Ongcangco,
Chief Executive Officer of Parlon.
To get started, users who are inside the GCash app just need to go
to the GLife section and find the services category to browse through Parlon’s
partner establishments and their respective deals. Once customers have finished
selecting deals and services to their carts, they may also choose to book a
date for their appointment. Users just need to confirm transactions and the
total will be seamlessly charged to their GCash wallet. All these steps are
guaranteed to be user-friendly and hassle-free, which is what Parlon and GCash
have always been committed to doing.
Aside from having an established presence in GLife, merchants who
partner with Parlon are given more digital channels to connect with their
customers. Under Parlon, they get to have their own profile and URL where they
can showcase their services and pricelist, offer enticing deals, manage
bookings, and access other solutions that are all housed at the Merchant
Partner Hub in Parlon’s easy-to-use ecosystem.
