How does a client leave a tip?

Clients can choose to tip if they pay for their appointment online while completing the booking process.

You can turn tipping on or off, but it will apply to all appointment types. There wouldn't be a way to accept tips for certain appointment types and not others. 

Note: Acuity will only accept and record payments of up to 150 percent of the appointment cost, including the tip.
