Phorest is salon and spa business management software (scheduling, point of sale, client marketing, online booking, and reporting) used by hair, beauty, and med-spa businesses across the UK, Ireland, mainland Europe, North America, and Australia. Partner-gated access is granted to the Phorest API (also called Phorest Connect by some partners) on request - a REST, basic-authenticated API scoped per business and branch that exposes clients, appointments/bookings, staff, services, products, purchases, vouchers, and reporting data so approved developers can build custom booking flows, e-commerce integrations, call-centre lookups, and reporting tools on top of a salon's Phorest data.
