Divvy vs GratShare

Divvy connects restaurant point-of-sale data to tip rules and shows managers and employees how each payout was calculated. It supports Toast, Square, Clover, Heartland, and Shift4 (SkyTab), with CSV import for other data. Tip pools can split evenly or use hours, points, per-role rules, or keep-your-own methods. Automatic tip-outs route shares to support roles using tips or sales, with caps to prevent negative balances. Employees can see tips, hours, pay-period totals, and real-time earnings in the portal and Tip Bank. Managers get date-ranged earnings reports, payroll export, IRS Form 8027 gross-receipts tracking, and a payout audit log. The Hiring Hub supports job postings, applicant tracking, careers pages, and onboarding. Core costs $39 a month per restaurant; Payouts costs $69 a month per restaurant and adds direct deposits through Stripe. A 14-day trial is available. Divvy runs in a browser on desktop and mobile devices; its native iOS app is still in development.

GratShare is a web platform for restaurants that calculates, allocates, distributes, reports, and archives tips, gratuities, service charges, commissions, and related pay data. Its rules engine supports pools, tip-outs, weights, departments, roles, shifts, locations, exceptions, and custom distributions. When a rule uses POS item tracking, tippable items can direct distribution by station, role, pool, or support team. Managers can review calculations, apply overrides, handle exceptions, and approve changes with traceable records. Outputs include payout and payroll export workflows, employee earnings visibility, reconciliation, reporting, and audit history. Listed integrations cover POS, time-and-attendance, digital payout, and payroll services, including Toast, Oracle, ADP, Paychex, Visa Direct, Branch, Harri, and 7shifts. The maker describes 180+ connected endpoints, 60+ POS systems, and 20+ payroll partners. Integration data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with SOC 2 Type II certification identified. GratShare serves businesses from single restaurants to national groups, casinos, hotels, and airports. You Drive costs $49 a month per location with annual prepay; We Drive costs $89 a month per location with annual prepay. Monthly invoicing is also offered.
