Short answer: point your phone camera at the QR code, choose an amount and pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card. You do not need an app or an account.
Step by step
- Open your phone's camera and point it at the code. Tap the link that appears.
- Check the name and picture: that is who you are tipping.
- Choose an amount. The fees are added on top by default so they receive the full tip; untick the box if you prefer.
- Pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card.
Is it safe?
Payments are processed by Stripe. Your card details go to Stripe and never reach TipIns. A "Verified" badge means the person has passed Stripe's identity check.
Refunds
