Tipping at Online Checkout: A New Revenue Stream for You and Your Team

What if every online payment from your clients came with an easy, optional way for them to tip your groomers, boarding staff, daycare team, or pet/house sitters? No awkward follow?up, no in?person cash shuffles — just a simple prompt at the perfect moment.

That’s exactly what PETSAppeal now delivers.


The Missing Piece No One Else Offers

While other software lets clients pay online or tip in person, none (as far as we can tell) let clients tip during the same online invoice payment flow. We’ve bridged that gap.

Your clients will now see an optional tip field right inside the payment screen. They can thank your team with a few extra dollars in seconds — no extra steps, no confusion.

  • More tips overall
  • Higher staff satisfaction
  • One clean, unified payment record

Why This Matters to Your Bottom Line

Tips can add up quickly. When they’re easy to give, clients give them more often.
With PETSAppeal:

  • Staff feel appreciated — you’ll see it in morale and retention.
  • You get credit as the hero — for giving your team a way to earn more.
  • Clients appreciate the convenience — happy clients return.

It’s a triple win.


Included in Every PETSAppeal Subscription

Here’s the best part: this isn’t an add?on or upsell.
The new tipping feature is built into PETSAppeal at no extra cost, available to every user on every plan.


Pairing It With PETSAppeal’s Other Standouts

This new tipping feature joins our already powerful online payment and pet report card capabilities. Together, they make checkout a walk in the park for your clients and a lucrative upgrade for your staff — without costing you a penny more.
