Tip, Donate & Support — Instantly. Anywhere.

Tips are processed securely through Stripe, a trusted payment processor. A small transaction fee of 2.9% + 50 cents is deducted from each tip, and the remaining amount is transferred to the selected server at the end of each business day.

Yes, businesses can be listed as servers on Kharisma and receive tips directly through the platform. The same transaction fee applies, and the remaining amount is transferred to the business’s account.

To sign up your business for Kharisma, visit our website and click on the “Sign Up” button. Follow the prompts to create your account and set up your business profile. Once completed, you’ll be ready to start receiving tips through the Kharisma platform.

Businesses add their servers via the Kharisma web app. Servers then go through a Stripe onboarding process, which handles necessary paperwork and configuration to start receiving payments. From a technical perspective, when a server is added, they are created in Stripe and assigned an express account.

The onboarding process for businesses is similar to that for servers. Businesses access the onboarding process through the Kharisma web app, while servers receive instructions via email. Businesses can choose to display themselves as a server by setting a property in the web app to "show the business: yes/no".

Taxes for servers are managed by Stripe through their express accounts. This ensures compliance and simplifies tax-related issues for servers.

Servers need to provide an email address. They will then receive an email with additional instructions to complete their setup and start receiving tips.

emeals4u and Kharisma share the same platform, providing a unified experience for tipping servers and supporting meal programs. This partnership allows customers to contribute to both initiatives seamlessly.
