Background

Andi Ott, co-owner of three Dog Haus locations in Arizona, sought a tipping solution that aligned with their culture of transparency and mission for operational excellence. A recommendation from another franchise introduced TipHaus, offering real-time data crucial for employee satisfaction and retention.

Problem

Before TipHaus adoption, Dog Haus encountered significant challenges in managing tip calculations across its three Arizona locations. Manual processes consumed too much valuable time, with approximately 10 hours per week dedicated to spreadsheet tip management and manual calculations. Additionally, cash handling introduced complexities and liabilities, including the risk of errors and discrepancies, as well as potential legal compliance issues. Lack of transparency regarding tip calculations further exacerbated the situation, impacting staff morale and retention rates. Employees also had to wait days to access their tips, creating frustration and unnecessary financial stress.

Solution

Across its three Arizona locations, Dog Haus was spending nearly 10 hours each week manually calculating and reconciling tips. TipHaus eliminated this burden by fully automating calculations, introducing Earned Tip Access with daily payouts, and removing cash handling from the process. With transparent, real-time data at their fingertips, staff could trust every payout, while managers regained valuable time to focus on growth. The result: streamlined operations, improved employee satisfaction, and a scalable solution that supports Dog Haus’s expansion plans.

TipHaus has by far the best customer service out of all our vendors. Thanks to TipHaus we don't have to deal with any of the issues we had before implementing it like cash handling, cash withdrawing through frequent bank trips, securing cash at our stores and also worrying about legal compliance if someone makes an accidental error in the spreadsheets. As we continue to grow from one store to another, we are looking for sustainable and scalable partners as our plan is to open up 3 more stores in the coming years, so we will be at 6 stores and potentially more down the road and Tiphaus fits perfectly in our systems for scaling. Set it and forget it, which is an operator's dream.
