Tippo review
A mobile-first tip management app with configurable rules, shift tracking, and payroll reports.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Tippo is a tip-management app for restaurant owners, managers, and hospitality teams. It records staff hours, accepts daily tip totals, applies configurable rules by role and percentage, weights allocations by hours worked, and produces tip-split reports. Employees can view tip allocations and tip history through mobile apps. The product is positioned for Canadian restaurants and supports tip-pooling record-keeping intended for payroll and compliance workflows.
Tippo uses paid monthly plans and includes a 14-day free trial. The Founding Member plan costs 9.99 per month and includes unlimited staff, email and chat support, and split reports built for payroll. Tippo Core costs 14.95 per month and covers basic restaurant tip-out management. Tippo Pro costs 29.95 per month and adds historical exports, advanced reporting, and visualizations. The plan structure gives smaller teams a lower-cost entry point while reserving deeper reporting for the higher tier. The Founding Member offer is described as a limited founding offer.
Its standout capability is rule-based allocation: managers can calculate tip pools by role, hours worked, weighting, or custom rules, configure tip percentages by role, preview splits, and finalize results. Staff hour and shift tracking includes corrections, while historical records support payroll reconciliation. Tippo is available on iOS and Android, making it a fit for teams that want employees to review allocations from mobile apps. It should suit small hospitality teams that need focused tip-pool administration and employee visibility. Teams seeking a broader connected software ecosystem should consider alternatives with documented integrations.
