Tipping

How to allow customers to give a tip whilst they checkout

The tipping feature adds a small block to your live checkout. It allows your customers to select from 3 default tip percents, or enter a custom amount they would like to tip.

  1. Percentage tipping is calculated on the subtotal of the order.

  2. This does not include shipping or tax.

  3. Tips are not taxable.

  4. Customer tips are still subject to transaction fees as they are part of the order total and passed to the payment processor.
