Tip request with POSit 2

With terminal type POSit 2, the tip can be requested directly in the POSit app instead of being entered on the Sales Point. You activate this per Sales Point in bessa Manager using the Request tip option — see Configure Sales Point Card Terminal.

When the option is active, the POSit app asks for the tip using its own tip settings. The suggested amounts, percentages, and upper limits therefore come from Hobex, not from bessa Kassa. The app reports the entered tip back to the Sales Point, where it is assigned to the card payment.

Prerequisite at Hobex: Tipping must be enabled by Hobex for your business and activated in the POSit app, and the POSit app must be up to date. If any of these prerequisites is not met, the option has no effect — the POSit app silently skips the tip request, but the payment still goes through normally. Clarify the activation with Hobex before you enable the option.

The tip request on the terminal applies only to terminal type POSit 2. It is not available with the older POSit integration (terminal type POSit). There, continue to record the tip on the Sales Point — see Tips.

The tip request with POSit 2 is available from bessa Kassa version 6.1.0.
