Once you log into the TipHaus Client Dashboard, you’ll see a “Card” icon on the left-side panel, click here to enter the Earned Tip Access Page.

Let’s briefly go over the columns you’ll see here:

Eligible Take Home: This amount is their total take home for the selected pay period or up to date, for the current pay period. In this case, we are looking at the current pay period, which will apply to the following columns.

Amount Withheld: This is the amount withheld up to date, for the current pay period from the ETA payouts by the organization. You can choose to pay these amounts by paycheck, to cover taxes, or use it as a buffer and pay them out at the end of the pay period. In this example, we use 30% withheld. Some organizations withhold a lot less, and others payout their employees 100%, this is up to the organization.

** The Amount withheld is reserved during the pay period, to be paid out at the end of the pay period to employees. This buffer is held for the purposes of missed clock-outs, refunds, rule changes, and other items that may affect what employees are owed at the end of each pay period.

Amount Payable: Represents the total take-home amount payable through ETA. Remember, this does not include the “Withheld Amount”. Tomorrow, this amount will begin at zero, because a payout will be done today.

Amount Paid Out: This is the total amount being funded today to payout the employees. Again, tomorrow this amount will start off at zero because a payout is being made today.

Available to Payout: This is the amount that will be paid when a payout is made.

As a note, you can do a payout for ALL locations at once, or select by specific location. If you have GM permissions, you may only see the location you’re set up to manage for the ETA Program.

Now that you are in the selected pay period for location, you’ll click on the “Initiate Payout” button. This will take you to the “Send Available Funds” display window, where you can review the “Available to Pay Out”.

By clicking on “Show Employee Details” (shown in the image above) you can view the breakdown, per employee, that is included in the payout. If needed, you can also remove an employee from the payout by clicking on the gray circle to the right of the name and payout amount. You will see a line strike through the data; these funds will not pay out.

Once you’ve confirmed the payout amount displayed is correct. Go ahead and click the “Initiate Payout for $$$” button. Once you click the button, you will see “Payout in Progress” for a few seconds, and the “Initiate Payout” button, has been grayed out.

From here you can go to the “Payout” tab to confirm whether your payout was successful or not.

The Status associated with your payout will tell you whether the payout was successful, and that’s all it takes to do a payout.
