FAQ
Do I need an account?
No. Pro is unlocked with a license key you receive after checkout; paste it into Tiptrail once on each browser you use.
Is it priced per location?
No. One Pro license covers as many locations and employees as you process.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Monthly and yearly plans can be cancelled anytime from the customer portal link in your receipt; Pro stays active until the end of the paid period. The 7-day pass never renews.
Do you offer refunds?
If Tiptrail can't read your timesheet export, contact us within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.
Is it really private?
Yes. Your file is read by JavaScript running in your browser tab; its contents — names, hours, tips — are never sent over the network. You can verify this in your browser's developer tools (Network tab), or go offline after the page has loaded.
Which files work?
Toast Time Entries and payroll exports, Square timecards, 7shifts time punches, Homebase timesheets, When I Work timesheets, and most other timesheet exports with an employee, a date and hours or clock-in/out times — CSV, TXT, XLSX, XLS or ODS. Columns are detected automatically and you can change any of them; your choice is remembered for that layout.
How are tips split?
Each pool's tips are divided by hours worked × the points you give each role. Optionally the pool is first split between groups (e.g. front and back of house) by percentage. Cents are allocated by largest remainder, so shares always add up exactly.
My export has no tip columns. Can I still use it?
Yes. Type each pool's tips into the Add tips box; the split uses the hours from your file.
Is it legal advice?
No. Tiptrail does the arithmetic with the rules you set. Who may share in a tip pool depends on federal, state and local law — see our tip pooling rules overview and check with your state labor department or an employment lawyer.
What's free?
Everything, one file at a time, for reports covering up to 7 business days — the full split, checks, payroll CSV and printable report. Pro removes the limit for whole pay periods, combines several files or locations, and adds the Excel audit workbook, shift-by-shift CSV and employee statements.
