How do tips work?

Add a tip to the amount to collect from the checkout tunnel, as a percentage of the price including tax or as a custom amount.

Updated on July 3, 2026

In the payment panel, a row of tip options appears before checkout: "None", preset percentages, or "Custom". Pick a percentage and it applies to the price including tax; pick "Custom" to enter a fixed amount in euros. The amount due updates automatically.

Choose a tip

There are two ways to do it.

  • A preset percentage: the tip is calculated automatically on the sale's price including tax.
  • A custom amount: you enter a sum in euros directly, independent of the sale's price.

Selecting "None" adds nothing to the amount due, it's the default option.

Where it gets added

The tip is added to the amount to collect, whether on a sale currently being entered or on a checkout picked back up later (a receipt left pending, for example). It follows the amount due until the payment is confirmed.

Edge cases

You're collecting with several payment methods. The tip is folded into the total amount before it's split across the payment methods, see How do I collect a payment split across several methods?.

You don't see a tip option. The percentages offered depend on your studio's settings. If nothing specific has been set, default presets are shown.

You want to cancel a tip you already selected. Just switch back to the "None" option before confirming the payment, the amount due goes back down.

The tip collected is included in the NF525 fiscal receipt generated at confirmation, just like the rest of the sale: nothing extra to track outside your usual register.
