## Reviews

### "Tip Jar is the best by far\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jacob** | *28 July 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The first thing about tip jar was working with BAM and Hunter to build this out\! I did not know either of these guys when I started working with them, but they made is seamless\!
> 
> **Cons**: Helping create this with them, I was able to get everything that I needed to make the roll out successful. I can't say anything that I do not like about this program.
> 
> Each restaurant has a different way of tipping out. I use this at both of my restaurants, and they are even different\! Hunter was able to build out separate formats, but also the same. Using this for multiple restaurants is very simple, you just toggle between the two on the top right\! The way our tip outs were done prior took too much time out of the day\! Now all I have to do is check time management and send it off to payroll\!
