POS system for restaurants

Record tips separately and share them fairly

Tips aren't turnover. The till records tips separately, even when guests add them while paying by card.

Where it often goes wrong

Card tips often disappear into turnover, so you pay VAT on them and nobody knows how much there is to share fairly.

How it works

  1. 1

    Tip when paying

    Tips are recorded separately for cash and card.

  2. 2

    Outside turnover and VAT

    Tips don't count in turnover or VAT reports.

  3. 3

    Overview per team member

    See per shift and per team member how much tip came in.

What you gain

  • No VAT on tips
  • Transparent for the team
  • Matches the card settlement
  • Less discussion when sharing

Real-world example

After a busy night the day report shows €186 card tips and €54 cash tips, separate from turnover. The team shares it straight away based on hours worked.
