BookingPress Tip Addon 2.3
BookingPress Tip Addon lets customers add tips for the booked service, with tips assigned to the chosen staff member at checkout. This WordPress plugin boosts earnings, rewards staff, and remains simple to use—even if no staff are available, tips go to admin. Explore how it can elevate your booking experience.
Description
The BookingPress Tip Addon is a WordPress plugin that lets customers include tips for the service they’re booking. It connects tip collection to the moment payment is initiated, so tips are handled alongside the booking flow instead of as a separate step.
When a customer selects a staff member during checkout, the addon assigns the tip to that chosen staff. If your booking setup doesn’t include staff members, tips automatically route to your admin account.
For BookingPress users, this simple addon encourages rewarding great service while keeping checkout clear and consistent for both customers and operators.
