Turn Your Performance Into Digital Tips

Create your free live.tips account in minutes. Set up your team profile, connect your payment provider (MobilePay or Stripe), and get your unique QR code instantly. No technical knowledge required.

Fans scan your QR code during performances, choose a tip amount (or enter a custom amount), and pay via MobilePay or Stripe. It's quick, contactless, and secure. No app download required.

Tips go directly to your connected payment account instantly. You own the payment account — not us. Funds go straight to your bank. We cannot delay, freeze, or redirect payments. 100% of tips go to you (minus standard payment processor fees that go to Stripe/MobilePay, not us).

live.tips charges a flat monthly subscription fee for Professional features (free Starter plan available). Payment processors (MobilePay/Stripe) charge standard processing fees (~2.9% + fixed fee). We take zero commission on tips. Beta pricing subject to change.

Yes! live.tips is built on trust and transparency for bands. Here's how it works: Tips go to the team owner's connected payment account (Stripe or MobilePay). You can invite all band members to the platform. Every team member sees the complete tip history - all transactions, amounts, and timestamps. Full transparency is built in. You can even set up Live Mode on a tablet during sets - the whole band watches tips roll in together. It's entertaining for fans AND transparent for your team. Currently, you split tips manually based on what everyone can see. In the future, when we obtain our payment service provider license, we'll add automatic tip splitting. The platform works on trust - we provide the visibility tools, your band decides how to split.

For the MVP, you can use a personal MobilePay payment link or a Stripe account. Business accounts are not required to start, making it accessible for solo artists and small bands.

Currently, live.tips supports MobilePay Box (payment links) and Stripe. We're planning to add MobilePay Business API integration in the future for enhanced features.

Yes! Professional and Team plans include Live Tip Jar Mode. Open it on a tablet during your set. When someone tips, the jar fills in real time — a quiet visual cue that appreciation is happening. Designed to be subtle and not interrupt the music or annoy venues.

Absolutely. live.tips is built on trusted payment providers like Stripe and MobilePay with secure payment infrastructure. We never store your fans' payment information. All transactions are encrypted and comply with industry security standards.

Yes! Professional and Team plans allow you to set custom tip presets (e.g., €5, €10, €20) while still allowing fans to enter any custom amount they wish.

live.tips currently works across the EU via MobilePay and globally via Stripe. We support multiple currencies and are actively expanding to additional regions based on user demand.

No. Fans simply scan your QR code with their phone camera and pay via their existing MobilePay or card. No app download or account creation required for tippers.

Account creation takes under 5 minutes. Connect your payment provider (MobilePay or Stripe), generate your QR code, and you're ready to accept tips immediately. No technical knowledge required.

Yes. Professional and Team plans include analytics showing tip amounts, timestamps, and performance comparisons to help you understand audience engagement and optimize future shows.

No. Tips go directly from fans to your connected Stripe or MobilePay account. We never hold, process, or touch your money. We cannot delay, freeze, or redirect payments. You own your payment account completely.

Every team member invited to your team sees the complete tip collection history - all tips received, exact amounts, timestamps, payment methods used, and performance analytics. This full transparency is intentional. The platform is built on trust: the team owner connects their payment account and receives all funds, while team members get complete visibility into every transaction. There are no hidden tips or private transactions. Team members can also access Live Tip Jar Mode to watch tips come in together during performances. This transparency model helps bands operate with trust and clear communication about earnings.

Currently, tip splitting is manual. All tips go to the team owner's connected payment account. Every band member sees the complete tip history and exact amounts received. The band decides internally how to split earnings - the platform provides full transparency so everyone sees the same numbers. You can watch Live Mode together during performances to see tips come in real-time. In the future, we plan to add automatic tip splitting when we obtain our payment service provider license. This will allow you to set split percentages and have funds automatically distributed to team members. For now, the platform operates on trust: one account receives funds, everyone sees everything, and you handle splits based on your band's agreement.
