Summary

If you use integrated credit card processing, you can collect tips on transactions. If your facility uses a terminal, the customer can be asked to tip while you run the transaction. Asking customers to tip on a terminal can raise revenue, so turn these settings on.

With Gingr Payments, you can prompt for tips at checkout if the customer has their card present.

Important: You cannot prompt for a tip on a terminal for a card on file. If a customer has a card saved and wants to tip, add the tip as an open line item.

Before You Begin

Tips added on the terminal during an appointment-based service go to the specialist who did the service on the Tips Report. For example, if an $80 groom has a $10 tip on the card reader, the $10 tip goes to the groomer. You can customize the Tips Report for your process. See Tips Report.

Steps

1. Go to Reports & More » Reports » Gingr Payments Dashboard » Card Readers.

   

2. Scroll to the Tip Settings section at the bottom of the page. The options are No Tips, Fixed Amount, Percentage, and a mix of both.

   

3. Fill out all the fields. The Smart Tip Threshold sets a minimum purchase amount that triggers the tip screen.
