Porter vs INKZUP INC

Porter is the first all-in-one software platform designed exclusively for tattoo artists and studios. It combines booking, payments and POS, CRM and marketing, scheduling, and analytics in a single tool — so you can ditch the DMs, spreadsheets, and endless email chains. Clients can book from your Instagram, website, or any digital channel, with customizable intake forms that collect all the details upfront. Collect deposits, accept payments through Porter POS, and auto-split commissions to your artists. Waivers, consent forms, and aftercare messages are built for tattoos — not salons and spas. Built-in email and SMS marketing keeps your clients coming back, automated reminders cut down on no-shows, and reports track revenue, tips, and marketing ROI. Trusted at 1,500+ studios.
