We surveyed 6,787 hospitality employees across 559 organizations to find out what they actually want from tip payouts. The answer was more consistent than we expected, and one finding surprised us: the employees most likely to want daily digital tip access were the ones who already get paid every day.


In this session, Kirk Grogan walks through the full findings of the 2026 Hospitality Tip Payout Report, what employee demand at this level means for retention and operating time, and gives a live look at how Earned Tip Access® works day to day. He'll close with a first look at earned wage access, now live from TipHaus, and take your questions.
