The price line
Monthly price is $120 per location and $10 per user. The FAQ says anyone with a profile counts. That includes service providers and front desk staff. A booth renter using the account counts as a user.
One location and one user, with the three add-ons left off: $120 + $10 = $130 a month. Five profiles at that same location: $120 + $50 = $170 a month. Both sums use the printed figures. The page does not say whether tax is included, so no tax was added or removed.
The calculator on the page can show a different total once you change the counts. $130 and $170 are only the two counts above.
Included list and add-ons
Forms and Charting is in the included list, next to calendar scheduling, payments, online booking, and a virtual waiting room. The page does not describe a tattoo consent form, a minor workflow, or a health-official archive.
Phone, Marketing, and Payroll are the three add-ons in the FAQ. A separate forms price is not on this page.
In-person cards are 2.45% + 15¢ per successful transaction. Virtual cards are 2.90% + 30¢. Large businesses may qualify for custom rates. The FAQ says Mangomint does not take a fee for appointments booked in the product. You can bring your own card processor. Deposits, cards on file, Express Booking, and self checkout need Mangomint’s processing.
The pricing page says you can create a free trial account. It does not print a number of days. Mangomint’s trial article, opened the same day, says the trial has no time limit and does not require a credit card.
What Tattoo Studio Pro’s help documents
Solo is $29/month or $239/year for 1 team member. Every feature is on every plan. Yearly billing costs less than paying monthly. Other team sizes are on the pricing page. Managers and health officials do not count toward the staff limit.
The subscription includes website hosting. Help says subscribers do not need a separate hosting plan. The paid card, $10 a month or $100 a year, shows as included and is not billed on its own.
Consent forms are on every plan. A signed form is stored on the client and in the Forms Archive. Managers and the Health Official role can open the archive. If the client is under 18, parent or guardian fields appear on the in-studio form. The public online check-in link cannot capture parent or guardian consent.
Appointment messages are a confirmation text and up to 5 reminder texts. Help does not state a per-text price, and it does not call the texts unlimited.
Commission reports what is owed. It does not pay people. Mangomint’s payroll line is the $50 plus $8 add-on. That line is payroll. The Tattoo Studio Pro figure is the report.
Card payments go through the studio’s Stripe account. Stripe’s pricing page, checked the same day, lists 2.7% + 5¢ for domestic in-person cards. The subscription does not add a percent on top.
Client import can bring a client list, and appointments if the export includes them. Old signed-form PDFs do not come over.
FAQ
What does Mangomint cost for one profile?
$120 a month for the location plus $10 a month for that user, with add-ons left off. That is $130. Tattoo Studio Pro’s Solo plan is $29 a month or $239 a year for 1 team member.
Who counts as a Mangomint user?
Anyone with a profile. The FAQ names service providers and front desk staff. Booth renters on the account count too. Five profiles at one location are $170 a month before add-ons, using the printed prices and leaving tax as the page left it.
Is Forms and Charting a $50 add-on?
Not on the page opened November 8, 2026. Forms and Charting is in the included list. The named add-ons are Phone, Marketing, and Payroll. The page does not describe a tattoo consent form.
Does Mangomint charge a booking percent?
The FAQ says no. Card processing is separate: 2.45% + 15¢ in person and 2.90% + 30¢ virtual, per successful transaction. Custom rates may apply for large businesses.
What is the Mangomint trial?
The pricing page offers a free trial and does not print a day count. The trial article opened the same day says there is no time limit and no credit card. Tattoo Studio Pro’s trial is 30 days, asks for a payment method, and does not charge you until it ends.
Does Solo add a hosting bill?
No separate hosting bill. The subscription includes website hosting. The $10 a month or $100 a year card shows as included. Mangomint’s pricing page does not print a website hosting price, so this page does not invent one.
Consent forms are described in the consent form article. Switching steps are on the switch page.
