What information should I include in my salon tips policy?

Below will give an example of what you can include when creating your tips policy within your business when using Revolut tipping.

At [Salon Name], we want to ensure a smooth and transparent process for both our team members and clients when it comes to leaving gratuities.

Our salon has implemented a tips system that is designed to provide
direct and immediate payment to our team members, and we would like
to clarify how this system works.

1. Direct Tips Payment to Team Members

All tips provided by clients for services completed are paid directly to
the team member(s) providing the service. These tips are processed
through the team member’s personal Revolut bank account, which
bypasses the salon’s accounts entirely.

This means:

The salon does not handle, receive, or manage any tips.
Tips are deposited directly into the personal accounts of the
team members.
The salon assumes no responsibility or liability for the
handling or distribution of tips.

2. Responsibility of Team Members

Since tips are paid directly to the team member’s personal account, the
following applies:

It is the responsibility of each team member to manage and report
their own tips, including any tax obligations associated with the tips
they receive.
The salon is not responsible for ensuring team members receive or
keep track of the tips paid directly to them.
Team members are responsible for any required reporting to tax
authorities concerning the tips they receive.

3. Salon’s Role

The salon’s role is limited to providing a platform for services and
ensuring that each team member is paid for their time and work. The
salon is not involved in the management, distribution, or legalities
surrounding tips.

By using our services, both clients and team members acknowledge and
agree to this tips policy. Should any adjustments to this policy be
necessary, we will provide updates as needed.
