How to use it

  1. Agree the split rule with the team first: by hours, by points per role, or hours x points.
  2. Write the week's cash and card tip totals in the header before you start dividing.
  3. Value of one share = total tips / sum of all shares; multiply by each person's shares.
  4. Have everyone sign when paid and keep the sheet; check local tax and labour rules on tips.

Hours ready when you split tips

The GrazieChef Hub plans shifts and shows the staff ranking, so you know who worked when and how they performed before you share the pool.

Frequently asked questions

How do you split tips in a restaurant?

Common methods are equal per hour worked, points per role (e.g. more for servers than runners) or hours multiplied by points. Pick one, write it down and use it every week.

Can managers or owners take part in the tip pool?

It depends on the country. Check local labour rules before including managers or owners.

Are tips taxed?

Rules on tips differ by country and by cash or card. Check local tax rules with your accountant; this sheet only records the split.
