Creating a compliant tip system for your hospitality business

When it comes to implementing a compliant tip system, hospitality operators are often left in the dark. Learn our 5 best practices.

A unified platform to pay, empower and retain your staff

The portal

Everyday payouts. Without the everyday hassles.

The portal is an online platform for automated payout distribution and reporting. You can manage more than one location and any number of staff, all in one central place. Time to go cashless! Also, boost morale and retention with Today Bonus, a feature that lets you instantly reward a team member for a job well done.

the APP

An app to level up their finances.

Staff receive their individual payouts in a free personal mobile wallet via the Today Financial app. The app comes with free banking features like purchase protection, secure card lock, cashback rewards, spending insights and more.

THE CARD

Fits their wallet & their lifestyle

Members can use the money in their wallet to grab a morning coffee, dine out with friends, fund their next wardrobe haul, or as a payment method on their favourite apps. Basically, they won't leave home without it. 😉

ADD ON

Tip calculator enables simple, automated tip calculations

Ditch the spreadsheets and improve your margins by reducing human interaction in the calculation process. Just connect your POS, set your tip rules once and let it run automated calculations daily.

The Today solution is definitely a time-saver, it’s very easy to reconcile the cash now. With a click of the button, the money is sent to the team members and they’re able to see it on their phones with the text message, which makes it easy.

Crystal Yeoman

General Manager

“There was so much room back then for human error and accounting issues. Having the pandemic happened, the transition to digital tip payouts is just a no-brainer. We need to move forward.”

Andrea Roberts

Senior Director of Operations

Team members are the heart of our restaurant. This program has been one of the aspects that have really been able to help us retain the team. For them to be able to go home with the money they’ve earned that night, it’s such a benefit to them.

What does Today do?

Today was designed to serve up instant access to staff's gratuities. Plain and simple. So employers can pay out all credit and debit tips to the entire team instantly, without using cash. Now we do it for virtually any earning or wage that goes from employer to employee, including incentives, mileage, expenses and more. The money is directly deposited into their mobile wallet via the app, and they can spend their funds immediately using the card. No more waiting for their money 🙌

How will it benefit my bottom line?

When was the last time you looked for cost savings on your P&L? Did you notice the labour and expenses being spent on cash due-backs? If not, let's think about that for a moment. Leaving the business to pick up cash, counting it, dividing it, stuffing it in envelopes, coming on and off the floor to distribute it to the staff... It's all costing you. Hospitality businesses who make the switch are seeing thousands of dollars in savings on labour costs and supplies related to cash payouts.

If you’re using payroll:
You could be saving money for both the business and your staff by removing the need for source deductions and switching over to cashless payouts.

If you’re using checks:
Did you know that using checks to distribute tips means you are likely operating in a “controlled” tip environment? That could mean compliant challenges with the CRA. Learn more about tips and taxation here. And yes, time to make a change.‍

If you’re using e-transfer:
We don’t have to tell you that sending multiple e-transfers weekly can put a strain on your bottom line. Time for a cost-effective alternative.

Is my money secure with Today?

Yes. Your money is held in trust. We use bank-level security to encrypt and secure all of your personal information.

Sounds great, what’s the catch?

We want to put money your staff's pocket at the end of their shift. That’s why the Today platform is free for you, and the mobile app and card are absolutely free for your team. No fees to spend their money (just like cash). And if they need to cash out IRL, they can stop at one of our network ATMs for free. There's only a small fee if they need to transfer to an external account.
