Revify vs Keep The Fees · tattoo shop software and dual pricing, side by side

If you are weighing Revify vs Keep The Fees, you are comparing two companies that both work with tattoo shops and both use dual pricing. Keep The Fees is tattoo studio software with online booking, digital waivers, two-way messaging, a walk-in shop queue, commission splits, payroll, inventory and reporting, with dual pricing on every plan. Revify pairs Revify Payments, which also uses dual pricing, with InkedIn Tools, the booking app built by tattooers.

This page lays out what each one offers, what the plans cost and who each one tends to fit. We checked Keep The Fees' public website on October 1, 2026. Pricing and features change, so confirm the details on each provider's site before you decide.

Same pricing model, different extras

Both companies set up dual pricing the same basic way. Your shop posts a cash price and a card price, both show on every receipt, and the client chooses how to pay. So the real differences are in what comes with it: what the software costs, which features are included, and whether your shop earns anything back on card sales.

Who builds each one

Keep The Fees says its co-founder, Adam Facenda, is a second-generation tattoo artist, that the platform was built with more than 500 working artists and shop managers, and that it runs at 1,000+ shops. Revify is artist owned. It was co-founded by tattoo shop owners, including a co-founder of Made To Last Tattoo, and it is based in Charlotte, NC. InkedIn Tools is now part of Revify.

• InkedIn Tools, $99/month, with every feature included and a 14-day free trial.

Monthly Cash-back: the biggest difference

With Revify, your shop earns up to 0.75% Monthly Cash-back on card sales, paid monthly. The rate depends on the card price you set, from 0.25% at a 3.0% card price up to 0.75% at a 4.0% card price. Keep The Fees does not list a cash-back program on its site.

Here is what that looks like for a shop running $20,000 a month in card sales with a 4.0% card price. On Revify, the shop earns up to $150 a month in Monthly Cash-back, and InkedIn Tools is $0 a month because the shop processes more than $10,000. Use the savings calculator to run your own numbers.

Both are solid options for shops that want dual pricing. The better choice depends on which tools your shop needs day to day and how much card volume you run.

Keep The Fees can be a good fit if

• You want a 30-day trial with no credit card to start.
• You want instant payouts on card batches and are fine with the rate Keep The Fees notes may apply.
• You want split pay, so a client can put one sale across two cards.

Revify can be a good fit if

• You want to earn up to 0.75% Monthly Cash-back on card sales, paid monthly.
• Your shop processes $10,000 or more a month in card sales, so InkedIn Tools is $0 a month.

• You want Instagram DMs, Facebook messages, texts and email in one inbox, plus missed-call text-back, a website builder and email marketing.
