tipme

Sign up with an SSN or ITIN

You sign up as a person, not a business. Your Social Security number or ITIN is what tipme needs to confirm who you are and pay you.

How it works

  1. Create your account

    Enter your name, email and phone, then confirm your phone with the code we text you.

  2. Verify your identity

    Enter your SSN or ITIN. Stripe, our payment partner, checks it. Sometimes Stripe also asks for a photo of your ID.

  3. Start collecting

    Your first page is ready as soon as the check passes. Usually the same day.

  • Your SSN or ITIN goes to Stripe for verification. Once Stripe holds it, tipme keeps only the last four digits.
  • tipme is available in the United States, with a US mobile number.
  • Signing up is free and there is no monthly fee.
