Membership software for cigar lounges and private clubs.

Members, dues, lockers, guests and new members, run from one place. Your staff get the back office. Your members get a portal on their phone.

Sample screens. The members are made up.

Run the whole room from one place.

Built with a neighborhood lounge in Greenville, SC and a private club that opens there in October 2026. It works next to the register you already have.

Everyone who belongs, in one list.

Tiers, standing, lockers and the people each member authorizes, instead of a spreadsheet and a group text.

  • Tiers and founding rates
  • Authorized users on a membership
  • Birthdays and anniversaries on file
Parlor for private clubs

Dues that collect themselves.

Members pay by card or bank on their own schedule. The dues method stays separate from the card behind the bar.

  • Monthly or annual, by tier
  • Card or bank, with no cut of your dues
  • See who renews next
Dues and the member portal

Know what's in every locker.

Who holds each locker, who else can open it, what's on the shelf and what's running low. Members see their own locker in the portal.

  • Contents and how full it is
  • A flag when a locker needs a restock
  • Open lockers, so they get sold
Locker management

Guests on the list before they reach the door.

Members add guests from their portal. The front desk sees who's coming, who they're with and how full the room is.

  • Included guests per visit
  • Extra guests on passes
  • Every guest tied to the member who brought them
Guest passes and check-in

The member file, at the bar.

Staff pull up a member by name or number and see their locker, their guests tonight and the notes your hosts keep.

  • Look up by name or number
  • Notes that follow the member, not the shift
  • Works on a phone, a tablet or a laptop
What staff and members see

Sample screens with made-up members. Every one shows a part of Parlor that's built today.

How a new member takes their seat.

For rooms that admit by invitation. The whole signup happens on the new member's phone, in one sitting. How admissions work

  1. Invitation

    A member nominates them and the club approves. They get a private code.

  2. Agreement

    They read the member agreement and accept it before anything else.

  3. Dues

    Card or bank, set up once, on the tier they were offered.

  4. Card for the tab

    A separate card for the bar, so dues and drinks never mix.

  5. Profile

    Favorite pours and cigars, birthdays and anniversaries.

  6. Seated

    A member number and a portal on their phone, before the first visit.

Your members get a portal of their own.

Their locker, their guest passes, the room's events and their profile, with your room's name on it. It opens in the browser, so there's nothing to install, and signing in takes a private code instead of a password.

Hi, I'm Keegan.

I came up in music and photography, did marketing for small businesses in Greenville, then started writing the software myself. I sit in these lounges, I know the owners by name, and I wrote the backend they run on.

Parlor is small, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise. When something breaks on a Friday night, you're talking to the person who built it.

A neighborhood cigar lounge

Open now

Where Parlor started. Members, deals and check-in were built and tested here first. The Toast integration is in pilot here too, with more than 1,600 menu items pulled in from the lounge's register.

A private members club

Opens October 2026

Founding members join through Parlor ahead of opening: a private invitation, the member agreement and their profile, with dues once billing opens. Founding members nominate the next ones, and the portal, lockers and guest passes were built for this room.

Questions owners ask first.

Short answers here. Bring the long ones to the demo.

What does Parlor cost?

Flat monthly pricing based on how many members you have, plus a one-time setup. No percentage of your dues. I'll give you the exact number on a demo once I know your member count.

Do my members have to download an app?

No. Members get a portal that opens in their phone's browser, and they sign in with a private code. Your staff use Parlor on whatever phone, tablet or laptop is behind the bar.

Do I have to replace my register?

No. Cigars and drinks stay on the register you run now. A Toast integration is in pilot, and Square is next.

Where does the dues money go?

Into your own Stripe account. Members pay by card or straight from a bank account. Stripe charges its normal processing fee, and Parlor doesn't take a cut on top.

Is Parlor for golf or country clubs?

No. There's no tee sheet and no course tools. It's for rooms where people come for the room: cigar lounges, social clubs, whiskey clubs and membership bars.

Who do I call when something breaks?

Me. There's no ticket queue and no call center. You'll have my email, and I answer it myself.

Let's look at your room.

Tell me a little about your lounge and I'll walk you through Parlor on a call, set up the way yours runs. It's a call with me, the guy who built it. There's no sales team to get passed to.

Takes a minute. I read every one of these and reply within a day.
