It's such an extremely efficient and effective way of getting tips. Customers don't have to carry around cash and it can be transferred directly into a bank account.

Improper charge

I made an online purchase; the seller registered me on this site to process the payment, and since then, a fee is charged every month. 1,95€, I've tried to delete my registration but I can't. I've already sent an email and they asked for information, I provided everything they requested but they are still charging me. I need them to delete my registration and refund w for the months I've been charged.

Problem solved, the team helped me and gave me all the support I needed.

Love it! Such a great idea, very easy to use.

I’m using Strike pay for over two years now and I absolutely love it. Very easy to use for me and also for the clients, they don’t have to struggle trying to use it. A great way of not loosing out on that tip, that we all know, how much needed it sometimes can be. And as a bonus, Gail was amazing, so easy going and very helpful. Thank you !

Bit disappointed in the fact I work…

Bit disappointed in the fact I work hard. And if people choose to tip me this way. There is a service charge. AND a fee to use this account. Which you call "measly" in other comments. This is not measly when you want to keep your tips. And if service fee is not covered by the customer. We are charged that too.

I've also had to link my bank 4 times now as it keeps saying unlinked. But when i go through the process. I can see after my bank is linked.

Hi Chloe, I'm really sorry we missed this review from you, we've just given you a tip to make up for it. The service charge is paid by the client almost 100% of the time rather than you. There is a 1.95 fee per month charge that comes out of the first tip of the month which is ony if you are earning tips. It's a fraction of the first tip of the month so normally therapists don't even really notice it. Please let us now if you still haven't been able to connect your bank account and we will fix that right away. To contact us please email support@strikepay.co

Hi Ciara, I think you've reviewed the wrong company since "after 12hrs money is deductible without any warnings" is not something that happens on strikepay. If you are sure you're using strikepay please email us at support@strikepay.co and we will resolve it for you ASAP.

Love using Strike to tip people who give great service. I’ve mostly used it by scanning the QR code on the front desk in hair and nail salons but also via a new terminal in some restaurants (Butcher Grill most recently) which means fair receipt of tips by staff. It’s a great and much needed system to thank folks for great service.

StrikePay makes it easy for me to tip in my nail and hair salon and thank God, I've been embarrassed too many times because I forgot to take cash out or no one would break down a 20 into fivers. Thank you StrikePay!

Hi Greta, thanks for review, delighted you find striketip easy to use and that we came to the rescue when you'd no cash. That's the origin story for the company's founders as it happens! Thanks again, team striketip.

Additional fees are disappointing

We ate at a local restaurant and were told that any tip was separate to the food bill and handled through Strikepay. I could see there was a 5.6% handling charge. What I sadly did not realise was that my credit card company treats this as a cash advance, so I was charged a cash advance fee by them AND interest on the advance! Total additional cost to the tip was 23%.
I have learned my lesson and will not leave any tips via Strikepay in the future.

Hi Peter, thanks for letting us know. It's rare but sometimes UK banks incorrectly charge a 'cash advance' fee on top of the transaction and we've been working with them to prevent it happening. In the interim we will be pleased to refund you. Please email us at support@strikepay.co Thanks again for letting us know.

There's a monthly fee for using strikepay, you can't transfer your money out unless it's over $10, you can't see who tipped you unless they specifically identify themselves by leaving a note on the tip. It's a pain in the ass for clients to set up just to be able to tip. Can't stand it

Hi Kiani, thanks for the feedback. If there's something for clients to setup just to be able to tip then you must not be properly setup since there should be nothing for clients to do. Thanks for letting us know. We'll DM you to fix it. Regards, support@strikepay.co

is it possible to reduce the commission for using your application?

I think this is a rip-off, not help in getting your hard-earned money. You get an education, you work, you try your best, you stand on your feet while working. You deserve extra tips and even if they may not always be big. And here they just write off a commission for transferring tips from each guest and also write off a commission for the application every month. I would gladly give my card number directly if this was accepted at work. Of course, developers also need to get paid, but how do free apps get paid? I'm not sure that this should happen at the expense of the service staff.

Hi Tома, thanks for your review, we take all feedback seriously and are constantly looking to improve the product. We created strikepay so that people could still tip even when they don't have cash on them. The transaction fee is small and is covered by the person tipping. The monthly fee for you to benefit from the service is also minuscule at only 1.95 (and only if you get tipped). We're helping a lot of people increase their incomes across a number of countries. I'm sorry about your experience and if there's more you would like to share please email us at support@strikepay.co Thanks

QR great but some tweaks would be useful

Card tap isn't great but never an issue with qr codes. A facility for the tipper to leave a message or identify themselves if they wished would be useful

Hi Ruari, thanks a lot for the feedback, its valuable. We actually have the functionality to leave a message for the person or team you have tipped but it mustn't be switched on in the place you were today. We can show the owner how to enable that though - would you mind DMing us to let us know where it was please? Then we can reach out to the and show them. Thanks! email: support@strikepay.co
