Staff pay and tip pools

Pay lives under Team, then Pay, with Tip pools, and Payroll once it is on, as tabs. Only people with the permission to see and set pay, tips and payroll can open them. We do not run payroll: the pages prepare the figures.

Rates

Under Positions, add each job with "Add the position": a name, an hourly rate and "Tip points". Tick "No share of tips" for a position that should be left out. Under People, give each person a position and, if they differ, their own rate, which wins over the position's.

Overtime

Under Overtime, set "Hours a day", "Hours a week" and a Multiplier. Hours past a threshold are paid at the multiplier, and the daily threshold counts first so no hour is counted twice. Press "Use the country rule" to return to your country's usual setting, and check it against your agreements.

How tips are shared

Under "How tips are shared", choose "By hours worked", "By position points" or "Keep your own tips". With your own tips, each person keeps what was paid on their payments, and tips paid online are shared by hours.

Share out a period

On the Tip pools page, pick From and To dates and press "Share out". Cash and card are shared separately, to the last cent, by the hours on the time clock. Each person gets a statement. Open "Statements" to print one, or press "Mark paid" when you hand the money over. A period cannot be shared twice; delete the shares to run it again.

Payroll file

Under "Payroll file", pick the dates and press "Download the CSV". It has one row per person: regular and overtime hours, gross pay and tips, in a plain file your payroll provider can import.
