Accept Stripe Payments as a Tattoo Artist
InkWell uses Stripe Connect so your clients can pay securely by card. Deposits and payments go directly to your own Stripe account — InkWell never holds your money.
Set up once, then collect payments from every booking without lifting a finger.
The problem
Cash and bank transfers are unreliable. Clients forget to send the transfer. Cash deposits get disputed because there's no paper trail. And setting up a card payment system yourself is complicated and expensive.
Even if you use a general payment link service, there's no connection to your booking system. You still have to manually reconcile which client paid for which session.
Payments built into your booking flow
InkWell connects payments directly to bookings. When a deposit is paid, the booking is confirmed. Everything is linked and tracked automatically.
Stripe Connect integration
Connect your Stripe account in minutes. Deposits and payments are processed directly through your account.
PCI compliant
Card details are handled entirely by Stripe. You never touch sensitive payment data.
Clients pay from any device
A secure payment link sent when you approve a booking. Clients pay on their phone, tablet, or desktop.
Automatic reconciliation
Every payment is linked to a specific booking. See exactly who has paid, who hasn't, and what's outstanding.
Flexible deposit amounts
Set fixed deposits or a percentage of the quote. Different amounts for different services.
