How to Set Up Digital Tip Collection (UPI QR Code) for Restaurant Staff
Most Indian diners now prefer UPI over cash, but your waiters are still missing out on tips. Setting up a digital tip collection system is simple and can increase your staff's earnings by 30-40%. Here's how to do it in under 10 minutes.
Quick Setup Steps
Create individual UPI IDs for each staff member (use Google Pay, PhonePe, or Paytm). Generate a QR code for each waiter and print small table tents or laminated cards with their photo, name, and QR code. Place these on tables or have waiters carry them. Cost: ₹5-10 per laminated card at any local print shop.
