eTip's Digital Tipping And Instant Earnings Disbursement Platform Now Available On Oracle Cloud Marketplace

San Francisco, CA (BUSINESS WIRE) - eTip, the award-winning digital tipping and financial benefits platform for service businesses and a member of Oracle PartnerNetwork, today announced it is available on Oracle Cloud Marketplace and can be deployed on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and integrated with OPERA Cloud via the Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform (OHIP). Hotels and hospitality companies using Oracle Hospitality OPERA Cloud can now enhance employee satisfaction and streamline operations with eTip's cashless tip disbursement platform. Oracle Cloud Marketplace is a centralized repository of enterprise applications offered by Oracle and Oracle partners.

As the hospitality industry rapidly evolves to meet changing consumer expectations and new operational challenges, technology is emerging as a crucial ally. Forward-looking hoteliers are increasingly adopting Opera Cloud, an enterprise cloud that helps hoteliers do everything from orchestrating hotel operations to managing room inventory and rates to navigate this new landscape. Now, they can do so with the added benefit of eTip’s modern, enterprise-grade tipping solution.

The key benefits of the integration include:

  • Eight Seconds to Tip: Guests experience a branded QR-code-based tipping process without the need for any application downloads.
  • Charge-to-Room: Through the OPERA Cloud integration, guests can choose the "Charge to Room" option, consolidating all charges onto a single bill.
  • Flexible Tip Disbursement: eTip Direct enables near-instant and automated tip disbursement, paid either to staff directly or via payroll.
  • Robust Reporting, including:
    • Automated compliance and tax reporting.
    • Tips per occupied room.
    • Performance reporting by team, property, brand, and group.
    • Positive guest feedback.

By removing friction from the tipping process, eTip can increase staff earnings and increase hourly earnings, contributing to higher employee morale and a better guest experience. With a platform purpose-built for the large-scale, complex operations of hotel and hospitality companies, eTip saves management teams days of time spent in financial reconciliation while significantly reducing employee turnover costs.
