Neutral QR card.
Minimalist design, serif typography, warm cream stock. No “TIP” signage. Reads as an elegant note, not a donation jar.
Built for the jazz residency
Tipping that doesn't ruin the room.
Hotel bar. Corporate reception. Restaurant residency. Rooms where a plastic tip jar would be tacky. One small QR card on the table — elegant typography, standards-list requests, tipping discreet. Runs in the background while you play.
Designed for upscale rooms.
Standards library.
Pre-load 50 jazz standards (Autumn Leaves, All of Me, Take Five, etc.). Set per-song prices if you like, or leave requests free and tips-funded.
Hidden queue.
Requests arrive in a private queue only the trio sees. The room experience stays intimate — no public leaderboard, no auction-y vibe.

The features that matter for jazz gigs.
Mono / minimalist theme.
Pro tier unlocks a neutral-palette theme — black serif on cream, no amber accent. Blends into any upscale room's aesthetic.
Requests-only mode for private events.
Corporate reception pre-paid you a fee; tipping feels weird. Disable tips, keep requests on. Guests can still ask for “Georgia On My Mind” without opening a payment portal.
Standards library starter.
We ship a starter list of 50 jazz standards you can add to your page in one click, then customize. Keep, remove, or add your own.
Follower list for restaurant residencies.
Tuesday-night residency at a downtown restaurant? Every guest who tips or requests becomes an optional follower. Email them next month's schedule.
Feedback form.
A jazz gig rarely gets a “thanks for the set.” The feedback form lets guests leave a private note — which, in the jazz world, is often the most meaningful currency you get.
Stripe Connect.
Individual or business. 5-minute onboarding. Payouts hit your bank in 1–2 business days. No LLC required (though it supports business accounts if you have one).
Common questions.
Won't a QR card feel out of place at a black-tie event?
Depends on how it's designed. A plastic acrylic tip jar feels out of place. A small printed card with minimalist serif typography reads as table signage, not a donation ask. Most upscale venues are fine with it.
Can we disable tipping for specific gigs?
Yes, toggle per event. Private corporate or wedding-style gigs where the trio is pre-paid: requests-on, tips-off. Public restaurant residency: both on. Same page, different modes.
How do we handle requests for songs we don't know?
They can't request those. The fan only sees songs on your list. If a guest wants something outside your book, they can't add it — which is exactly the point. Your book IS the menu.
What's the appropriate tip amount to suggest?
For jazz, we recommend $5 / $10 / $20 as presets. Jazz audiences tend to be older and tip larger amounts. Avoid $1/$2 presets — they anchor tips too low for the room.
How does this compare to a Venmo sign on the piano?
A Venmo deep-link works for Venmo users only — which in an upscale restaurant is maybe 40% of the room. Apple Pay on Encore works for every iPhone instantly. Card payments cover everyone else. Much higher conversion, especially in older / international crowds.
Do you handle Cash App and Venmo too?
Yes — both show as payment chips next to Apple Pay. Fans pick their preferred rail. We don't force anyone into a single payment method.
