Fresha Achieves NF525 Certification
France is one of Fresha's fastest-growing markets. Achieving NF525 certification reflects the company's commitment to meeting the needs of French businesses and making its platform accessible to partners of all sizes, from independent professionals and single-location salons to clinics, spas and enterprise companies.
NF525 is an independent certification issued by AFNOR Certification, with the certification process managed by INFOCERT. This certification confirms that Fresha's POS software complies with French anti-fraud regulations introduced under Law No. 2015-1785. These rules are designed to ensure that transaction records are securely stored and cannot be altered or deleted without a record.
Dane Carmody, Head of Product at Fresha, who led the certification project, said: "Achieving NF525 certification was an important undertaking for our team and required us to meet a rigorous set of requirements. Throughout the project, our focus was on making sure Fresha met the needs of the French market while remaining simple and intuitive for our partners to use. We're proud to have reached this milestone. French businesses can now use Fresha's POS software with the added confidence that the way their transaction records are stored and protected has been independently assessed."
Baptiste Donnedieu, General Manager of France at Fresha, said: "France is an incredibly important market for Fresha, and achieving NF525 certification is a major step forward in what we can offer businesses here. We are not simply bringing a global platform to France; we are continuing to develop Fresha around the specific needs of the French market. This certification gives our partners greater confidence in how their transaction records are managed. It also means that more businesses across France can use Fresha to manage their bookings, clients, payments and daily operations in one connected place, whether they are an ambitious independent or a larger business with multiple locations."
With its NF525-certified POS software, Fresha partners in France can manage sales alongside bookings, payments, client relationships, marketing and reporting through one platform. This makes everyday operations simpler while giving businesses confidence that their transaction records meet French requirements.
Fresha's NF525 certification will continue to be reviewed through regular checks by INFOCERT, including an annual audit. This provides partners with ongoing independent assurance as Fresha continues to invest in its product, team and presence in France.
