At Serious Business® 2026, we are exploring the landscape of "Shock"—the sudden disorientation of a world that keeps shifting—and seeking the "Awe" found in the quiet resilience and modern innovation that allow us to flourish. For many service professionals, "Shock" is felt in the steady disappearance of cash and the administrative burden of traditional tipping. But this year, we are proud to spotlight a partner that brings back the "Awe" of instant rewards: Tippy®.

Tippy® is the premier digital tipping platform designed by industry professionals, for industry professionals. It is a strategic anchor for salons looking to enhance their team's financial wellness and sharpen their competitive edge in a modern market.

The Antidote to Disruption: Financial Empowerment

In an era where the ground keeps shifting, your team is your most valuable asset. "Shock" often looks like turnover or a lack of motivation. Tippy® turns that disruption into a force for good by providing a "raise for free."

The results of integrating Tippy® into your checkout process are nothing short of awe-inspiring:

·       Higher Tips: Transparency and psychology drive results. Beta tests proved that Tippy® increased average tip amounts by 30%.

·       Instant Payouts: No more waiting for payday. Tips are deposited directly into stylists' bank accounts instantly, empowering them with immediate access to their hard-earned money.

·       Owner Savings: By moving tips out of your standard merchant processing, Tippy® helps salon owners save thousands on credit card processing fees.

Finding "Awe" in the Experience

True resilience is found in the moments that connect us. Tippy’s forward-facing digital kiosk brings back the personalization of the "tip in the apron" for the digital age. It eliminates the awkwardness of the checkout line and allows guests to express their gratitude with the click of a button.

For owners, the "Awe" is in the simplicity. Tippy® offers seamless POS integrations—including partners like SalonBiz® and Meevo®—ensuring that your data flows effortlessly while your team focuses on providing "Unreasonable Hospitality."

Lead Through the Rubble with Radical Clarity

Serious Business® is about the whole person. Tippy® supports this by providing tools that help stylists manage their financial lives. The Tippy® mobile app allows users to track their earnings and even export files for loan applications, providing the structural integrity every creative needs to reach their Full Potential.
