A Digital Tip Jar for Live Performers

Cash Is No Longer the Only Way Fans Tip

More people are paying from their phones and carrying less cash. For live musicians, that can mean missed tips when the only option available is a traditional tip jar.

HelloBand turns your existing QR code into a convenient QR code tip jar for musicians. Fans scan once, choose the Tip option and select the payment service you make available.

📱

Cashless Tipping

Let fans tip from the phone already in their hand instead of relying on them to have cash available.

⚡

Fast and Simple

Fans scan your HelloBand QR code, tap Tip and select one of your available digital payment options.

💰

Tips Go Directly to You

HelloBand connects your audience to your selected payment platform rather than collecting the tip on your behalf.
