Gingr Pet Business Software FAQ

Do you offer plans for pet-care businesses with multiple services?

Yes! Gingr is customizable and can fit every business's pricing and services. In addition to our core features— a mobile app, online portal, integrated payments, and retail functionality—you can choose the specific plan you need for grooming, boarding, training, daycare, multiple locations, etc.

Can I transfer the data from my current system to Gingr?

Absolutely! We have a free import template you can populate on your own, or we can do the legwork for you for $350. Paid data imports have a four-business-day turnaround time. In general, we can transfer owner and pet information, future reservations, retail, and package credits from most software providers, as long as the data can be exported into an Excel spreadsheet or CSV file. 

If you have minimal data to transfer, it may be more practical to have your customers register through the customer portal. A benefit to this approach is that you can start fresh with updated owner and pet information.

What support does Gingr offer for current customers?

We offer stellar support via phone, email, and live chat, along with a knowledge base, status updates, and more in our Current Customers resource center.

Is Gingr easy for pet parents to use?

Absolutely! We designed our mobile app to be easy and intuitive for anyone with a smartphone. Pet parents can check status reports on their pets, upload vaccination records, book appointments, and more with your business via the app anywhere, any time.

Do I need a separate payment processor to use Gingr?

No. With Gingr Payments, everything is built directly into the platform. Plus, our built-in surcharging feature helps you recover processing fees automatically, putting thousands of dollars back into your business each year.

Can Gingr support my business if I open a second location?

Yes, Gingr is built to scale alongside you. Whether you are a single facility or a growing franchise, you can manage multiple locations from a single login, share pet profiles across facilities, and view high-level reporting for your entire business.
