QR Tip Jar vs Card Terminal Prompts

Terminal prompts are tied to checkout hardware. QR tipping gives teams another channel that can be placed at stations, handoff points, and service moments where a terminal is not present.

Terminal Tip Prompts

  • Convenient at fixed checkout points.
  • Limited to where terminal hardware is used.
  • Can be less flexible when you need tips to go to specific staff members.
  • Flow varies by POS and terminal experience.

QR Tip Jar Workflow

  • Supports tip prompts before, during, and after checkout.
  • Portable across stations, service desks, and mobile contexts.
  • Easier setup for staff-level and role-level tip links.
  • Consistent presentation independent of terminal brand.
