Tippy Partners With SalonCentric For National Rollout

Unique Financial Empowerment Tool for Salon Professionals

New York, NY – April 23, 2018

Tippy, a new digital tipping platform for the salon and spa industries, today announced a partnership with SalonCentric, the premiere distributor of salon professional products. This new partnership brings Tippy’s disruptive tipping solution, including customer facing terminals and a mobile app for service providers, to more than 150, with plans to roll out to additional salons throughout the United States.

The strategic partnership is aligned with both SalonCentric and Tippy’s goal of helping stylist and salon owners grow their businesses and financial success. Tippy’s unique software enables service professionals, such as stylists, to collect tips and deposit them into their personal bank accounts daily.

“By significantly reducing the waiting period to receive their hard-earned tips, Tippy brings financial control back to the service professionals,” said Terry McKim, Founder and CIO of Tippy. “We are excited to leverage this partnership and introduce this business solution to salons and stylists nationwide.”

Participating salons and stylists can simply download the Tippy Mobile App, available on both iPhones and Androids, and will receive a Tippy-branded kiosk, digital dashboard summarizing transactions, and technical support from Tippy’s Success Agent Program. Additionally, salons who are part of L’Oreal Professional Products Division’s LEVEL LOYALTY REWARDS Program will be able to redeem points for the Tippy service.

“Tippy’s system modernizes the tipping process for stylists, similarly to programs offered in the taxi and restaurant industries, and by doing this, provides more financial control for these small business owners,” said Bertrand Fontaine, President of SalonCentric. “SalonCentric is always looking for ways to support the salon professional and Tippy brings a unique business solution in the area of tip processing, helping us do just that.”
