Works without cash

Frequently asked questions

How do I collect tips when guests have no cash on them?

At the end of the tour, you show one QR code the whole group can scan. Everyone pays directly from their own phone by card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

Does one QR code work for a whole group?

Yes. Every participant scans the same code and gives their own amount independently — no passing a card reader around.

Can co-guides split tips automatically?

Yes, that's what Crews are for: several guides set up a shared tip pool, and Tippidy splits incoming tips automatically and fairly by your rules.

Do I have to pay tax on tips as a tour guide?

As a self-employed guide, tips count as business income and are taxable. See our tips-and-tax page for details.

Does signing up cost anything?

No, your Tippidy profile is free. Only the usual payment fees apply per tip.

Do my guests need an app?

No. They scan the QR code, enter an amount, and pay in the browser — nothing to install.
