The problem
Unclear tip splits breed distrust fast
When the split is done in someone's head, staff wonder if it is fair, and one bad night sours the whole team. Trust is hard to earn back once the math feels hidden.
Hand calculations also leave thin records. If anyone ever questions a payout, you want a clear trail, not a memory and a crossed-out napkin.
- Splits the whole team can see and trust
- A clean record behind every payout
- Faster close-outs at the end of the night
- Fewer disputes about who got what
Features
Built for tips and payroll support
TipPoolr stays focused and does this one job extremely well.
Split by hours
Distribute tips in proportion to hours worked, so a full shift earns more of the pool than a short one.
Split by points
Assign role weights so a bartender and a barback share a pool by the points you set, not a flat cut.
Transparent breakdown
Every person sees how their share was calculated, which turns arguments into a quick, clear answer.
Shift records
Each pool close saves a record you can revisit or export, so payouts are always backed by a paper trail.
Adjustments
Handle tip-outs to support roles and manual corrections with a note, so the record stays honest and complete.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Is this legal or tax advice?
No. TipPoolr helps you calculate and record splits, but it is not legal or tax advice, and you should confirm rules with a professional.
Does it handle tip-outs to support roles?
Yes. You can route a set share or percentage to support roles and keep it in the same clean record.
Can staff see how their share was figured?
Yes. Each person can see the breakdown behind their payout, which is the whole point of the tool.
Does it run payroll?
This is an honest limit. TipPoolr calculates and records splits, then exports them, but it does not process payroll or tax withholding itself.
Which split methods are supported?
You can split by hours worked or by role points, and you can mix pools that use different methods.
Can I export records?
Yes. Every pool close can be exported so you have a trail for payroll and your own files.
