Picture this: you operate several yachts for day charters, and you have several captains and deck hands split into teams operating these yachts. However, the teams are never stationary and can jump from yacht to yacht depending on bookings.

Or another case of safari tours, where your guides and drivers take guests on amazing tours but in different vehicles all the time. Or housekeepers maintaining different rooms and villas, or even a busy restaurant with different zones, multiple shifts and variable teams.

In all these cases and many more, distributing tips, let alone automating them, is a real nightmare. Some businesses might have rota systems, others are still operating in excel. Either way the data is often incorrect and requires manual checks and corrections.

If you run a tight ship and your rota platform runs like clockwork, that’s great because we can integrate into most platforms and your tip allocations and distributions should be hassle free. But, if your business is different and has variable shifts and teams and you want to make tip distributions automatic and pain free, we have just the thing for you: “Easy Check-ins”.

What is “Easy Check-ins”?

It's a QR code, same one that you use to collect tips from customers, but it is also scannable by your team. And when they scan it, through the EasyTip app, they automatically check-in into a service or a shift. Tips in these checked-in tipping pools are then allocated and distributed automatically – by points or percentages or equally because these workers all did the same shift.

The QR codes for Easy Check-ins are created and configured within the EasyTip app. There you can assign various parameters to them like:

• Who can check-in and when;
• Automatic or shift based check-outs;
• Different allocations in different QR codes.

Why Easy Check-ins are so convenient?

It’s all about speed and automations. Businesses using Easy Check-ins gain four important advantages:

• Faster tip distributions – don’t wait until end of the month, receive tips same day as allocations are shift based.
• Greater transparency – customers know that their tip is going directly to the people that just served them; workers know allocations are based on shifts.
• Zero admin – make the team responsible for the tips they collect; no integrations required, and you free yourself from tipping admin

Which businesses should use Easy Check-ins?

Easy Check-ins can be used in any type of businesses that collect team tips. However, it’s particularly useful for businesses that organise their employees in shifts and have multiple locations. Try collecting and distributing tips with Easy Check-ins if you are operating:

• Cycling tours
• Guided tours
• Hotel housekeeping
• Restaurants & bars
• Yacht charters
• Valet parking
• Delivery & logistics
