How's my service?
Tap a star to rate your experience
You ask for a rating, not a tip.
Recognition and tipping remain optional next steps.

What's in it for you
Made for the person doing the work.
Every shift without your code, a guest without cash leaves without tipping. Here is what changes the moment you share it.
No awkward ask
Ask for a rating, never for money
You invite a quick rating. Appreciation leads the way, and the tip is theirs to add.
Cashless
Cash still works. Now card works too.
Guests with cash can keep tipping in cash. Guests without it can now tip you from their phone browser, in a couple of taps.
Recognition
Thanked by name, for the work you did
Guests recognize you personally. Ratings, kind words, and tips arrive in your own Aplauso account with your name on them.
Your record
A reputation that goes where you go
Every rating and kind word adds to a private record of your service, kept in your own account wherever you work next.
Private
Your tip amounts stay yours
Exact individual tip amounts stay personal to you, even when you are connected to a Business.
Everywhere
One code for every place you work
Counter, van, tour bus, stage, or invoice. The same code and link go wherever service happens.
Pricing
Free to create. No monthly fee.
Recognition comes first, and tipping is optional. Review the applicable payment charges and recipient credit in your transaction record.
Milestones
Celebrate the work behind the numbers
Accomplishments make your progress visible and give every new service milestone a moment of its own.
Share anywhere
Put your code where the service ends
Every place you work is a place a guest might want to tip you. Put one code or link where the service ends, so no thank-you depends on whether they carry cash.

For every kind of service
Made for people whose service is personal
Use Aplauso anywhere customers may want to recognize thoughtful, individual service.
Hospitality
Keep your code ready for personal service moments across a property.
Tours and transportation
Share your link at the end of a tour, trip, or follow-up message.
Fitness
Share your code at the front desk or after a training session.
Beauty and wellness
Give clients an easy next step after a thoughtful appointment.
Performers
Share your profile at a performance or through your show materials.
Home services
Add your link to completion messages, invoices, or printed leave-behinds.
Built on trust
Serious about the details that matter.
Recognition only works when people trust where it goes. These safeguards are part of the product today.
Specialists handle sensitive payment details
Stripe and connected payment services process full card and bank-account details. Aplauso does not store full card numbers or full bank-account numbers.
Earnings are not an operator scoreboard
Business performance views focus on service evidence, response volume, confidence, and recognition activity rather than exposing an individual’s exact tip earnings.
Protected connections
Aplauso and its service providers use encrypted connections for data in transit.
Guests share only what they choose
No Aplauso account is needed, and tipping is always optional.
Questions from professionals
A few things worth knowing
Straight answers about customers, accounts, payouts, pricing, and the two ways to use Aplauso.
Do customers need the Aplauso app?
No. Customers can use your code or professional profile link in their browser.
Who is Aplauso Solo for?
Anyone whose service is personal. Independent professionals such as guides, drivers, performers, trainers, stylists, and trades, and team members at hotels, restaurants, venues, and events.
Do I need to work for a business?
No. Aplauso Solo is designed for independent professionals and also supports people who are connected to an Aplauso Business. Your Solo experience stays personal.
Can I use Aplauso from the web?
Yes. The Solo dashboard lets you manage your profile, activity, sharing tools, earnings, and supported account settings from a browser.
How do I receive tips?
When you are ready to withdraw, open Wallet. It shows any eligible payout setup after current country, account, destination, compliance, funding, quote, and release checks. You can then follow availability and payout status in Aplauso. Timing depends on the selected route and each transaction’s authoritative status.
What payout options are available in my country?
Wallet shows only an eligible payout route and destination after current country, account, compliance, funding, quote, and release checks. Stripe Connect may be one route, not a universal promise. Other methods appear only where separately eligible; a country or currency list alone never enables a payout method.
Can customers see a tourist currency while I charge locally?
In supported kiosk experiences, a guest may view rounded tip suggestions in local or visitor currency. The payment remains in the property’s local charge currency, and the review screen shows the exact local amount before the guest confirms.
Can I change my code?
Your code stays connected to your Aplauso profile, so you can keep sharing the same destination as you update your public profile details.
What does Aplauso Solo cost?
No subscription, setup fee, or seat price. Review applicable payment charges and recipient credit in your transaction record.
Can customers leave feedback without tipping?
Yes. A customer can rate and share feedback without adding a tip. Tipping is optional.
