How Bellyard Hotel Got Tips to Every Housekeeper, Including Contract Staff Without Bank Accounts

Bellyard Hotel is a Marriott Tribute Portfolio boutique hotel at The Interlock in Atlanta's West Midtown, with a team of 50+. Guests kept coming to the front desk asking to tip housekeeping by card. But most of the housekeeping team was contract labor without bank accounts, so the hotel had no way to pay those tips out. Bellyard launched eTip with QR codes on custom wooden stands and a pooled tip system that pays every housekeeping role, contractors included.
