Team Tips is the ultimate Tipping solution for guides and activity providers to supercharge their tipping process.

With Team Tips, guides can engage in Collaborative Tipping, banding together to collect tips as a team and automatically splitting them through a fair tip distribution process. Whether you’re leading a tour, driving a bus, or guiding an activity, Team Tips ensures that everyone gets their fair share. Boost your teamwork, boost your tips, and make every effort count!
Team Tips offers a unique collaborative tipping system for guides where multiple guides can pool their tip collection. This feature is ideal for tour guide tipping or attractions with several guides and drivers working together, ensuring that everyone benefits from the collective tipping received.


Teams can be set up as either temporary or permanent solutions, providing flexibility to meet the needs of different tours and activities. Whether for a one-time event or ongoing collaboration, Team Tips adapts to your requirements, making it the perfect tipping solution for all scenarios.
The team can take over all the tipping points on a resource, such as buses or tip jars, increasing the team’s scope for tip pooling. This takeover ensures that tips are maximized for the entire team throughout the duration of the tour or activity, enhancing team-based incentive opportunities.


By teaming up with other guides and taking over all tipping points on a resource, individuals can collectively gather more tips than they might individually. This collaborative approach ensures that all team members benefit from increased guide earnings through tipping.

Team Tips promotes fair tipping and transparency in tip management. Guides decide the tip distribution, ensuring a completely fair process that reflects their contributions and agreements, creating a transparent tipping environment.

When tips are shared fairly, it enhances team morale and encourages a collaborative spirit. Guides are more likely to support each other and work together effectively, knowing that their efforts will be rewarded. This is a crucial aspect of guide compensation and team-based incentive for guides.

Managing tips can be challenging, especially in a busy environment. Team Tips automates and simplifies this process, allowing guides and activity providers to focus on delivering exceptional experiences to guests without worrying about tip distribution or management.

At the end of the day or tour, the pooled tips are distributed among team members based on the guides’ decisions. This approach ensures a fair tip distribution for guides that reflects the contributions and agreements of the team.
Guides can track their earnings and view detailed reports through the TipDirect dashboard. This transparency ensures that all team members are aware of their earnings and the overall team performance, providing insights into how to share tips among guides.

Team Tips is a TripAdmit add-on that lets guides, drivers, and activity hosts pool gratuities on a single TipDirect page for fast, contactless tipping and automatic tip revenue sharing. It’s ideal for any experience that involves more than one staff member – city tours, coach trips, adventure activities, and more.
Yes. Each team sets its own distribution rules in the TipDirect dashboard – equal shares, weighted shares, or any custom ratio you choose – so payouts are always fair and transparent.
Both. Create a one-off team for a special charter or build a permanent crew for a daily route. Team Tips lets you spin groups up or down in seconds, matching the realities of seasonal staffing.
When guests tap a QR code or NFC card linked to Team Tips, their contactless tipping payment lands in a shared wallet. At the end of the tour, the pot is split according to the percentages the guides have agreed upon – no spreadsheets or cash counting required.
Any guide with a TipDirect profile can create a team. All they need to do is to scan/tap their colleagues’ QR Code and add them to the team. Membership is one tap to accept, and leaving is just as easy. You can also add resources, such as a bus to the team to take over all QR Codes on that resource.
Pooling all tipping points on a bus or attraction increases total gratuities, and the friction-free contactless tipping flow raises the average tip size. Operators commonly report double-digit percentage lifts in tip revenue once Team Tips goes live.
All transactions are processed through TripAdmit’s PCI-compliant gateway, and every guide can see a real-time ledger of pooled tips and individual payouts in their dashboard – so security and accountability go hand in hand.
