Hop City Craft Beer & Wine is a popular craft beer and wine retailer with locations in Fayetteville, GA and Atlanta, GA—as well as one location in Birmingham, AL. Their Fayetteville location also contains a restaurant and rooftop bar called Barleygarden.

Branch and Gratuity Solutions are thrilled to announce that we have partnered together to make the process of tipping out restaurant and hospitality workers faster and easier than ever before.

As a server working in a restaurant, you sometimes get groups of people that you spend hours walking around serving and they leave you with less than what you imagine as a reasonable tip.

Gratuity Solutions is excited to announce our recent partnership with FLRA. With this partnership we are expanding our offering of our PayDay Portal and all our core services to their members. With PayDay Portal, restaurants will be able to bundle their POS and timeclock data, digital payment services, and their payroll all into one easy, secure, precise, and fully automated PayData Platform.

This new integration of the 2 platforms provides establishments the ability to use calculated normalized data from POS to @DailyPay, giving the mutual customers the ability to customize calculations, withholdings, and payout TIPS, service charges, commissions and wages through DailyPay to the employee’s bank account, paycard or debit card.

On December 28, 2021, the Department of Labor’s (DOL) new “dual jobs” regulation, which governs how tipped employees are paid, went into effect. The new regulation breaks down work into three different categories: tip-producing work, directly supporting work, and work that is not part of the tipped occupation.

Who knew that sunny Naples, Florida is home to an innovative financial tech company Gratuity Solutions, the creator and leader of pay data platforms? This company was inspired after a long night out on 3rd Street and has grown from a fledgling idea to a national powerhouse encompassing much more than its name implies.

Gratuity Solutions is pleased to announce, in honor of the ten-year anniversary of our first GratShare portal launch, the release of PayDay Portal, the fifth and most refined iteration yet.

Manually consolidating data from POS and other systems wastes time and money. More importantly, it opens your organization up to errors and potential liability. Humans simply cannot manage complex data analyses and calculations with the accuracy and efficiency of an automated application.

Every day, customers give businesses free information ranging from what they purchased to where and when they purchased it and how they paid for it. This wealth of information has transformed the retail industry, creating new leaders among those who embraced this progress and, conversely, new losers among those who didn’t.
