Pre-launch. Tip Any $1 is in development. Features described on this page are planned, not yet live, and nothing here is an offer of financial services.

Onboarding founding members

Get paid for the good you already do.

Tip Any $1 turns every shift, set, class, cut and post into income. No follower minimums. No algorithm. No waiting on payday.

Founding members go first
Priority onboarding, plus Creator Pro free for three months.

How it works

Three ways to get tipped.

No storefront, no sponsorship deck, no minimum following. Just a thank you, in cash.

Tips on your posts

Every piece of work you put out carries a tip button. Money lands in your Tip Jar, not in a payout queue.

QR code tipping

Print your code for the counter, the tip jar, the merch table or the stream overlay. One scan, one tip.

Tips with a note

A message travels with the money, so people can tell you exactly what they're thanking you for.

For creators

Built for people who get thanked in person.

Musicians, DJs, barbers, baristas, trainers, dancers, drivers, essential workers — anyone doing something worth appreciating.

  • Claim your handle @yourname — free, and yours to keep
  • Printable QR kit for tip jars, merch tables and stream overlays
  • Live tipping during sets, streams and sessions
  • Any amount from $1 to $1,000
  • Analytics that show your top tippers and best moments

The tax change tipped workers should know about

Up to $25,000 in tips. Federally deductible.

Section 224 of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed 4 July 2025, lets workers in tipped occupations deduct up to $25,000 of qualified tip income from federal income tax. The IRS finalised the rules in April 2026 and named the occupations that qualify.

Tips have to be voluntary and reported to count — which is exactly how Tip Any $1 is designed to work. Automatic gratuities and service charges don't qualify.

  • Up to $25,000 a year deductible from federal income tax, per return.
  • 71 listed occupations — servers, stylists, drivers, entertainers, digital content creators and more. The list is closed; if your job isn't on it, you don't qualify.
  • Cash, card and app tips all count, as long as they're voluntary and reported.
  • Standard or itemised — you can claim it either way.
  • Phases out above $150,000 single, $300,000 joint.
  • Income tax only — Social Security and Medicare still apply, and state tax rules vary.
  • Tax years 2025–2028, then it expires unless Congress extends it.

This is general information, not tax advice. Eligibility depends on your occupation and circumstances — check IRS.gov or talk to a tax professional.

What we're building on

Four commitments, from day one.

Every product decision runs through these. They're commitments for launch, and we'll publish progress against them.

Money safety

Funds held with a regulated payments partner and encrypted end to end. Details published before launch.

Account security

Two-factor authentication, biometric sign-in and alerts on unusual activity, all planned for launch.

Privacy first

You choose what's public. Your tip history and personal details stay yours, and we don't sell them.

Community standards

Real people reviewing reports. No tolerance for harassment or fraud, and a clear appeals route.

Follow along

Watch it get built.

We're posting the build in public — product decisions, creator stories and launch dates. Follow whichever platform you actually use.

A tip is the only payment that isn't owed.
It's someone choosing to say thank you with money.
