The service industry thrives on its people. From friendly bartenders to attentive servers, these professionals are the backbone of a great dining experience. But in today’s digital world, cash tips are becoming a thing of the past. Managing tip payouts through paper envelopes and manual calculations is time-consuming and inefficient for employers. For staff, waiting until the end of a shift to receive their tips can be frustrating and inconvenient.

Introducing a Revolutionary Collaboration

TipHaus is proud to announce a groundbreaking collaboration with Visa that will transform the way service industry employees receive their tips. By leveraging Visa Direct, Visa’s real-time money movement network, TipHaus will empower employers to seamlessly distribute tips directly to employees’ bank accounts in real-time (Actual fund availability depends on receiving financial institution and region). This means no more waiting for payday, and greater financial security for your dedicated staff.

“By harnessing the power of Visa Direct,  we are empowering employers to provide their employees with fast, secure, and convenient access to their earnings, ultimately enhancing employee satisfaction and retention,”  said Leif Magnuson, CEO and co-founder of TipHaus. The integration of Visa Direct with TipHaus’ innovative platform allows employers to easily digitize tip payouts, providing employees with real-time access to their money.

Working with Visa underscores our commitment to enhancing the financial security and flexibility of service industry employees.

Larry Shaffer, Director of IT at Country Boy Brewing, loves being able to tip his employees out daily with Earned Tip Access™. 

“TipHaus and Earned Tip Access™ have been a game-changer for us. It massively cuts down the hours we spend per week reconciling tips for bartenders and servers. It also works well for both regular operations and events, allowing tip sharing and pooling. Since implementing Earned Tip Access™, we’re now able to tip our staff out the next day, which has helped with employee retention and morale.”

Visa’s Commitment to Innovation and Security

For Visa, this collaboration continues its dedication to innovation and cybersecurity in digital transactions. “Today’s consumers are accustomed to ‘real-time everything, and worker expectations are no different when it comes to receiving payouts from their employers,” said Yanilsa Gonzales-Ore, SVP of Visa Direct North America. By collaborating with companies like TipHaus, Visa Direct is helping reshape global money movement, providing workers with faster, digital access to the money they’ve earned.

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, spanning 55 locations with an average of 40 tipped employees at each, prioritizes their staff’s security and transparency over anything else. Cory Lilliston, their Chief Accounting Officer, said, “TipHaus is extremely easy to use and implement.
