How Tippo works
The whole loop, four steps.
Tippo turns tip outs into a fair, simple and transparent process — automatically. Here’s the cycle you’ll run each day.
01
Staff Log Hours
Staff submit their hours to Tippo. Managers or tip committees review them and make sure they’re correct.
02
You Enter Tips
Punch in the day’s tips — however you collect them. Tippo will total them automatically.
03
Preview the Split
Tippo does the math by your rules: roles, hours worked, applied hold backs, and shows exactly who gets what.
04
Finalize Tip Split
Once the split is finalized, staff see their share on their profile and know what to expect in their tip out.
Step 1 · Get set up
Sign up & claim your restaurant
Creating an account takes a couple of minutes. You’ll set up your owner profile, add your restaurant, and get your team on board.

Step 2 · The dashboard
Review who worked, and for how long
From your restaurant’s Tip Split → Staff Hours, pick a day and review each staff member’s submitted hours. Hours drive a fair split, so this is where every tip split starts.

Step 3 · The math, done for you
How Tippo actually splits the tips
Set a tip percentage for each role once. On any day, hit Preview and Tippo applies your rules, then divides the pool across the roles worked — weighted by their hours.

Percent per role
Keep your percentages the same every day or adjust them based on business flow and staffing needs — Tippo makes it easy to keep things fair!
Weighted by hours
Within a role, the pot is shared by hours worked — a real tip $/hr for everyone.
One report per day
Finalize the Split Report and allow your team to see their tip out.
Step 4 · On staff phones
What your staff see
The moment you split the tips, every staff member sees their own share in the Tippo app — the same numbers you see. Accountability and transparency is the whole point!
Their tips, at a glance
Each staff member opens the app to their profile — showing them their tips earned over a period of time or on a specific day.
Tip Splits
Staff see each day’s tip out, broken down by hourly rate. Owners can decide if they want to share the total tip pool and numbers behind the split.
Tip splitting made effortless.
Set it up once and run a fair, simple and transparent tip split — for every restaurant you manage.
