This article covers adding and adjusting tips on paid orders.
Article Contents
Intro to Tips
Tips must be enabled in the Register Payment Settings to accept tips. Check out the Register Settings article for more information on enabling tips.
Depending on how you have configured your settings, there are two ways to add tips to an order. If your business uses printed receipts to accept tips (i.e., the customer-facing display is disabled in the Register Settings), employees must manually add the tip to the paid check. If the customer-facing display is enabled, the customer selects the tip amount, which is automatically added to the paid check.
Reconcile Tips Screen
The Reconcile Tips screen (located in the fly-out menu under Reconcile Tips) allows you to view all paid orders with the option to add, adjust or finalize the tip amounts. You can navigate between each option using the left-side navigation menu, which includes the following menu items:
- The Tips menu displays all completed (paid) orders that do not have a tip. You can add a tip amount to the order by tapping Add Tip.
- The Adjust menu displays all the completed (paid) orders with a tip amount with the option to adjust the tip amount via the Adjust Tip button.
- The Finalize screen displays all the completed (paid) orders with a tip amount with the option to finalize the tip amount for all orders. Once tips are finalized, they cannot be adjusted.

To add a tip to a paid check:
