Frequently Asked Questions

What is a TripAdmit NFC Card and how does it work?

A TripAdmit NFC Card is a credit-card-sized tag with a tiny near-field-communication (NFC) chip inside. When a guest taps it with an NFC-enabled smartphone, the card instantly launches that guide’s personal TipDirect page for contactless digital tipping and reviews – no typing, no QR scan, no app.

Cards arrive pre-programmed but unassigned; assigning the card is as simple as either the guide tapping the card of their phone and claiming the NFC card, or the Administrator for the account can assign each card to each individual guide. You’ll be ready for contactless digital tipping in minutes.

Do guests need to download an app or create an account?

No. The contactless digital tipping page opens in the phone’s browser, so there’s nothing to install and no login required, just tap and go.

What if a guest’s phone doesn’t support NFC?

Every NFC Card also carries a printed fallback QR code. Guests can scan it with their camera to reach the same contactless digital tipping page, ensuring you never miss a gratuity. The majority of phones now have the ability to read an NFC Card.

Do I have to pay taxes on my tips?

Yes. After the “thanks for the tip” screen, they’re automatically prompted to leave feedback, capturing reviews while the experience is still fresh and tied to the same contactless digital tipping flow.

Do NFC Cards really boost the amount of tips I receive?

Guides typically see both the number and the average size of gratuities rise, because contactless digital tipping removes cash barriers and takes just a few seconds.

Can I add upsells or promo codes to the tap flow?

TipDirect offers immediate remittance, as soon as you claim your first tip and set up a payment method, all future tips will be transferred to you automatically and instantly.

How many cards do I need - one per guide or one per vehicle?

Most operators issue one personal card per guide so the tip flows straight to the right wallet, but you can also keep spare unclaimed cards for when new guides join the team. The dashboard lets you assign new cards at any time – handy for scaling contactless digital tipping and review collection..
