Oma
Find a nail tech.
Book them. Pay safely.
Oma shows you the nail techs near you, what they charge, and what other women thought — then holds your money until the appointment actually happens.
Four steps, and nobody has to trust a stranger.
The hard part of booking a nail tech you have never met is not finding them. It is knowing the money is safe and that they will turn up.
Scan your hands
Oma measures your nail beds from a photo, on your phone, and tells you which shapes actually suit them. The photo never leaves the device.
Find someone near you
See who is close, what they charge, and what other women said. Or let them come to you — the price for that is shown before you book.
Book and pay
You pay into an account for that one appointment. They cannot touch it yet, and neither can we.
Show your code
When your nails are done, they scan the code on your phone. That is what releases the money — and it is the only thing that does.
List yourself
Your name, your area, your own prices and how long each service takes. Shop or no shop — if you travel, Oma shows where you are while you work.
Pass the ID check
One check, so a customer paying a stranger knows who they are paying. Your ID number is never stored — only the fact that it passed.
Take bookings
Requests arrive in the app with the services, the time, and whether they are coming to you or you to them.
Scan, and get paid
Scan their code when you finish. The money moves to your balance, with every deduction set out line by line.
Your money doesn't move until your nails are done.
Paying a stranger up front is the reason most people never book online. Oma's answer is not a promise — it is where the money physically sits.
If they never scan your code, the appointment never completed, and the money goes back to you.
Oma is for the first appointment.
Finding a good nail tech in Nigeria happens by word of mouth, and word of mouth stops at the edge of who you already know. If you move to a new area, or your usual tech stops answering, you are back to guessing from photos and hoping.
Real prices, before you book
Every tech sets their own. You see the number, and what it would cost for them to come to you, before you commit to anything.
Distance you can trust
Oma asks your phone where you are each time you look, so "1.2 km" is from where you are standing, not where you were last week.
Reviews that had to be earned
Only someone who paid for and completed an appointment can leave one. A tech cannot rate themselves and a rival cannot rate them down.
