Making a tip tracker fit your job

A fine-dining server, a coffee barista, and a nightclub bartender do not track the same things. Custom positions and fields let one app fit all of them.

The reason most tip trackers feel wrong is that they assume one kind of job. But tipout at a steakhouse, a tip jar at a café, and a busy bar with multiple positions are completely different shapes of money.

Track what your job actually involves

Checkout handles this with custom positions and custom fields. You define the things that matter for your work, as a dollar amount or a count, so the app bends to your setup instead of forcing you into a template.

Work two jobs, or a floor shift and a bar shift? Positions keep them separate while still rolling up into one honest picture of what you earn.

Why it matters

When the fields match reality, the math at the end is trustworthy. Your true hourly rate is only as good as the inputs, and custom fields are how you get the inputs right.

All of it lives on your device, offline, with no account.
