Configure on-reader tips

Customise the tipping options displayed on your readers.

Copy page

You can use on-reader tips to display suggested tip amounts on the reader before customers present their payment method. We support the following on-reader tip types:

  • Suggest smart tips: The reader dynamically displays three percentages or amounts, depending on the size of the pre-tip amount.
  • Suggest percentages: The reader displays three percentage-based tip amounts.
  • Suggest amounts: The reader displays three tip amounts.

To configure on-reader tips:

  1. Navigate to the Manage locations page.
  2. Find the specific location you want to change.
  3. Click the overflow menu () > Edit configuration to display the configuration drawer.
  4. Click Edit or Override next to the Tipping icon.
  5. Choose the Tipping mode.
  6. Choose the Currency.
  7. Enter the desired tipping options (for example, you can enter 10%, 15%, and 20% for percentage-based tipping), and repeat this process for different tipping modes and currencies.
  8. Click Review to view your changes, then click Confirm.
  9. Click Apply changes.

Stripe applies the tipping configurations on the reader within 10 minutes.
