Dublin, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Salon Gift Card Software Global Market Report 2025” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The salon gift card software market is poised for accelerated growth, moving from $0.43 billion in 2024 to $0.5 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. The forecast indicates further expansion, reaching $0.88 billion by 2029 with a CAGR of 15.3%. This robust growth is fueled by factors such as increased digital payment adoption, heightened demand for personalized customer experiences, and the rising adoption of loyalty and reward programs. The emergence of more salon and spa establishments, alongside the growing preference for online and mobile gift card purchasing, is driving significant market traction.

Key growth drivers during the forecast period include enhanced software integration with point-of-sale systems, demand for seamless appointment and membership management, and the necessity of automated marketing tools.
