Revolutionizing Tipping in Kenya’s Hospitality Industry

In the hospitality industry, gratitude is at the heart of every memorable guest experience. But when it comes to tipping, traditional methods often fall short—limited cash, privacy concerns, and logistical headaches leave both guests and service workers dissatisfied.


Shukran TipJAR is here to change that. As Kenya’s most innovative digital tipping platform, we’re transforming how hotels in East Africa and beyond handle tips by ensuring fairness, transparency, and ease for all parties involved.

 

How Shukran TipJAR Works

  1. Effortless Tipping for Guests:
    With Shukran TipJAR, guests no longer need to carry cash. Instead, they simply scan a hotel-specific QR code and tip using their card or any other digital payment method. Their contribution is seamlessly processed without requiring an app or revealing personal information.
  2. Simplified Tip Distribution for Hotels:
    The hotel collects all tips in one secure digital TipJAR. From there, management can disburse the funds equally—or based on predetermined policies—straight to service workers’ Shukran accounts.
  3. Empowered Service Workers:
    Service workers receive tips directly to their mobile wallets, ready for withdrawal via M-PESA or bank transfer. This system eliminates mistrust, ensures immediate access, and creates a sense of equity among all staff, from front-of-house to back-of-house.
