You played the song. Delivered the order. Made someone’s morning. Give people a friendly way to show their appreciation—even when they have no cash. Your own free band, with no fees for recipients.
FREE BANDSNO RECIPIENT FEES ↗A SETUP THAT FITS YOU
A little recognition. For what you bring.
You don’t need to run a business or organise a team to request a band. Tap Tip is for the person doing the work: the busker on the corner, the café employee behind the counter, the independent worker going the extra mile. Keep appreciation personal, optional and on the giver’s own phone.
IN YOUR WORLD
Let the last note become a thank you.
Someone stops, listens and enjoys what you do. If they want to show their appreciation, your band gives them a way to open your tipping page without searching for coins. They can see who the tip is for and choose the amount themselves.
PUT IT INTO PRACTICE
“Glad you enjoyed it. If you’d like to leave a tip, you can tap here.”
An example to adapt to your setting.
IN YOUR WORLD
You brought more than the basics.
A delivery, an appointment or a one-off job can leave a lasting impression. Carry your own tap point with you so a customer can thank you if they choose. Check any workplace or platform rules that apply to your work.

“If you’d like to say thanks, a tap opens my tipping page.”

IN YOUR WORLD
They remember you. Make the thanks personal.
The remembered coffee order. The patient explanation. The welcome that made a difference. Request a band for yourself and discuss your venue’s tipping arrangements before using it on shift.

“You can tap my band if you’d like to leave a tip. It’s completely up to you.”

WHAT MATTERS FOR YOUR SETUP
Your band. Their choice, every time.
01
A recognisable recipient
The person giving should be able to see who they’re thanking before paying. Check your recipient page before you start using the band.
02
A friendly invitation
Offer the option without pressure. They tap with their own phone; you don’t need to take it from them or choose an amount for them.
03
A deliberate payment
Tapping only opens the page. They review the recipient and amount, then confirm. Appreciation stays voluntary from start to finish.
A wearable band suits people whose work moves: between tables, around a venue or from one job to the next. Keep it visible and offer a tap when someone wants to say thanks.
Start with your own band. If you need a shared collection point or bands for colleagues, explore the team setup instead.
CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS
Safe to offer. Clear to give.
You’re inviting appreciation, not taking a payment. The giver opens the page on their own phone, checks the recipient and stays in control. No sensitive card data is stored on the band.

The band is free, and recipients pay no fees to receive tips. Ask us to explain the complete payment journey before you start.
