What it is
eTip is a digital tipping and tip-management platform for hospitality and service businesses, available on Android, iOS, and the web. Guests scan a QR code to tip without downloading an app. Managers configure pools and splits by individual, room, shift, department, or custom criteria. Employees can receive payouts through debit cards, ACH, PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, or an eTip card. The platform provides automated IRS-compliant reporting, payroll-ready exports, transaction audit trails, and real-time dashboards. Listed payroll integrations include ADP, Workday, UKG, and Dayforce; POS integrations include Toast, Agilysys, Micros, Square, and Aloha. Customizable CSV files cover unlisted systems. Businesses can white-label the interface and guest experience. Employees can view tips, transactions, and reviews and initiate payouts. Pricing is on request; there is no free plan.
