How can I pay tips?

When paying tips on limber, you have two choices - you can do it on the timesheets when you close them out or, if the timesheet has already been closed, you can bulk upload you tips in the tips tab.

We'll take you through each option.

  1. Entering tips on the timesheets.

    This is super simple - in the timesheet card, you'll see a tips field like this:

    Just choose which type of tip to add and we'll pay the worker. If you're unsure whether your tips attract NI (National Insurance), please see this guidance. The rule is usually, if you have in place a compliant TRONC scheme, your tips won't attract NI, but you will need to take your own advice/consider the guidance if you're not certain.

  2. Adding tips after timesheets have closed - DESKTOP ONLY

    If timesheets have already closed or if you'd prefer to do your tips once a month (for example), then you can use the bulk upload tool. This will only work on desktop devices:

    • Head to your >tips tab and go to "Bulk Upload"

    • Choose the weeks timesheets you want to add tips for. You can do as many weeks at a time as you like. NB - you'll have to wait until after 2pm Tuesday to be able to download your timesheets for the previous week.

    • Now tap "generate" and "download" to download the csv file.

    • Now you have your timesheets, just add the tips values in the relevant columns. If your tips attract NI, choose "tips with NI" and otherwise, choose the "tips" (No NI) column.

    • Now save your file locally.

    • Now you can tap "Go to Tips Import" and upload the file. It should generate a table for you and list any errors you need to fix.

    • Once you're happy with the file, hit "confirm tips". We'll generate an invoice and pay the workers.

Any questions, please get in touch with us and we'll help where we can.
