JTT for Tours (All Types)

More 5★ reviews and cashless, optional tips — $ / €0 cost to your business

Great tours create grateful guests—but almost nobody carries cash at the end of the experience. With JTT, guests scan a QR at the goodbye moment, tip in seconds (no app), and leave a quick rating. 4–5★ guests are routed to your chosen review platform; 1–3★ feedback stays private so you can fix issues quietly.

Your cost: $ / €0. A small JTT platform fee and card processing fees are shown transparently to the guest before they pay. No POS changes.

Primary outcomes

  • More 4–5★ public reviews (Google, TripAdvisor, Yelp, Booking.com — one active at a time)
  • Optional digital tips for guides or pooled teams — no cash handling, no awkwardness
  • Private, actionable feedback for coaching and service recovery

Best placement practices (what actually drives tips & reviews)

Walking / City / Museum Tours

  • Guide lanyard/badge QR + finish-point sign (bench, plaza, café).
  • Secondary: meeting-point poster reminding guests for post-tour tip & review.

Food & Wine Tours

  • Host lanyard + table-top tent at the final venue.
  • Menu slip or tasting mat insert with short URL.

Bus / Coach / Shuttle Tours

  • Exit door sticker + first-row seat-back card (guests pause here).
  • Driver/guide lanyard for one-to-one thanks.

Boat / River / Coastal Tours

  • Gangway or dock placard at disembark.
  • Bar counter tent if on-board service is provided.

Adventure / Outdoors (rafting, hiking, zipline, photo trips)

  • Gear return / finish gate placard.
  • Guide helmet/pack tag or clip-on badge with the QR.

Design rules

  • High contrast, generous whitespace, headline "Scan to tip — no app", short URL under the QR.
  • Matte finish (avoid glare); minimum QR 5–7 cm / 2–3 in; larger for distance or low light.

Suggested staff one-liners (non-pushy, one time)

Deliver once at the thank-you moment. Smile, point once, move on.

Guide / Host (group close-out)

"If you enjoyed the tour, you can scan here to leave a quick tip—totally optional. Thank you for joining us!"

Driver / Skipper

"Thanks for riding with us—there's a QR by the exit if you'd like to leave a tip."

Food/Wine Host

"If you'd like to thank the team, there's a small QR here—much appreciated."

DOs:

  • Smile
  • Keep it brief
  • Point once
  • Accept "no" gracefully

DON'Ts:

  • Don't repeat
  • Don't suggest amounts
  • Don't handle the guest's phone

Team vs individual tips (you choose)

Team / pooled

Guide Team, Boat Crew, Driver + Guide Team, Food Tour Team

  • Easiest start; distributes fairly across shared roles.

Individual attribution

Each guide or skipper has a personal QR (lanyard or clipboard).

  • Great for recognition and seasonal leaderboards.

Many operators mix both: a team QR at the exit plus individual lanyards for guides. Funds can settle to the business; you distribute per your policy. JTT provides rails & reporting; tip allocation/compliance remain with you.

FAQs (tours)

1

Does this replace our POS or booking system?

No—JTT sits alongside your current setup. Keep your POS/booking unchanged.

2

Who pays fees?

The guest. They see a transparent breakdown before paying. JTT is $ / €0 for your business.

3

What if we have multiple departures or guides per day?

Create one QR per guide or one per departure team. Your dashboard shows totals by endpoint.

4

Offline areas?

Guests typically scan/pay when back in coverage (short URL under QR helps). Place a finish-point sign where signal is strongest.

5

Is this GDPR/PCI friendly?

Payments are processed by a PCI-compliant provider; JTT doesn't store card numbers and doesn't show guest PII to staff. (General info; not legal advice.)

6

Which review platform first?

Tourist markets often benefit most from TripAdvisor or Google. You can switch anytime (one active at a time).
