Digital consent forms for tattoo & piercing studios

Compliant. Digital. Simple. And no more paper.

Why TattooMate exists

Not planned. Just necessary.

My wife works in a tattoo and piercing studio. I saw what that means day to day: printing consent forms again and again, stapling, filing, having clients fill them out, then archiving everything. Not once a day — constantly. Always when there was something more important to do.

Existing digital solutions were either overloaded with features no studio needs — or they required sensitive customer data to land on external platforms. Neither was an option for me.

So I built TattooMate: a tool that takes studio life seriously. No data harvesting, no forced calendar integrations. The data belongs to the studio — not us.

A side effect that matters to me personally: no more paper. No printer, no folders, no waste. More sustainability, without the studio having to fight for it.

Cost & value

Is it worth it for your studio?

Paper forms seem free — but they're not. Printing costs, archiving effort, time spent searching and sorting. And at the worst moment, when you need one specific document, it becomes a hunt through years of paper archives.

Whether TattooMate makes financial sense for your studio depends on how many clients you see per month and how much time you currently spend on paper forms. That's something you can calculate.

Self-Hosted vs. SaaS

You decide where your data lives.

TattooMate is available in both variants. Here's the honest comparison.

Recommended

Self-Hosted

€49 / month or €499 / year

On your own server. Maximum control — your data never leaves your system.

The most secure option. Recommended for anyone who is technically capable or has someone in the team who can manage the server.

SaaS (Hosted by TattooMate)

€69 / month or €699 / year

We host, maintain and secure everything — you focus on the studio.

For studios that want to do it right — even without their own IT. Better clean on our server than messy on paper. +€20 compared to self-hosted — cheaper than any technician.
