Manage percentage tipping

Percentage tipping calculates tips as a percentage based on the purchase price. You can add percentage tipping when taking card payments using the Zettle SDK.

The percentage tipping flow with a card reader consists of the following steps:

1. The amount payable displays in the card reader together with the “Add tip?” question. After this step, there are two flows:

• The customer clicks the cancel button.
• The customer clicks the confirmation button.

If the customer clicks the cancel button, the flow will proceed to the payment as follows:

1. “Tap/Insert card” displays on the card reader.
2. The customer taps the card on the card reader.
3. The “Approved” message with a heart displays on the card reader, followed by “Thank you”.
   

If the customer clicks the confirmation button:

1. "Tip _ %" displays in the reader.

2. The customer enters the desired tip percentage on the card reader.

3. “Tap/Insert card” together with entered percentage and calculated amount displays on the card reader.

4. The customer taps the card on the card reader.

5. The “Approved” message with a heart displays on the card reader, followed by “Thanks for the tip”.
