About
Using Abacus POS, you can process two sorts of tips:
Percentage tips: e.g. 10% of an order
Flat dollar tips: e.g. $5
Please note that even though certain card payment terminals may accept tips, we recommend that you process tips through Abacus POS in order for the tips to be recorded in your Abacus backend.
How to process a tip
On the payment page, press the Tips Jar and a window will pop up
2. Enter your tip:
A dollar amount (e.g. $5) - select the $ button and enter the amount
A percentage amount (e.g. 10% of the whole order) - select the % button and enter the amount
3. Press Done
3. The payment amount will update to include the tip
4. Complete the transaction as per usual through cash, credit card, etc.
