Holler does not take any portion of tips. The full tip amount goes directly to the Tasker via their Stripe payout.
Tips may not be used to substitute for, reduce, or replace the task payment. The task itself must be booked and paid through the platform before a tip can be added.
That includes booking fewer hours than the job actually needs and making up the difference with a tip. It is the same thing as paying outside the platform, and it is handled the same way: both accounts can be suspended. If a job needs more time, book the time.
Tips can be added from the booking in your dashboard once the Tasker marks the task complete. You have 14 days from that point to add one. The clock starts when the Tasker marks the task complete, not when you confirm it. One tip can be added per booking.
A tip is charged as its own payment on your card at the moment you add it, separately from the task itself. That is why there is a window: after 14 days we are asking a card to work weeks after the job, and neither you nor your Tasker should be dealing with that.
If the 14 days have passed and you still want to send something, Section 6 is the way to do it.
In the app you can tip up to 25% of the booking total, or $20, whichever is higher. No single tip goes above $200, and the smallest one a card will take is $1. The booking total means what the task itself came to on your card, not counting the tip.
The app works your cap out for you and tells you what it is if you go over. On a $120 booking it is $30. On a $60 booking the 25% comes to $15, so the $20 floor applies instead and you can tip $20.
Holler takes nothing from tips, which makes a tip the one payment on the platform that carries no fee. Left open, that turns the tip box into a way to pay for the work itself and skip the fees the booking carries, which is not fair to anyone paying the normal way and is the kind of pattern that gets a payment account frozen.
The cap is there for that reason and no other. It sits well above what anyone normally tips, and if you want to go past it, we will still help you do it.
If you want to leave more than the cap in Section 5, or the 14 days have run out, email support@hollerservices.com with the booking reference and the amount, and we will arrange it. Holler takes nothing from those either.
We will ask what the tip is for, and we may decline it where it looks like payment for work that should have been booked and charged in the normal way. That is the only reason we would say no.
