The platform

Start with tips. Grow from there.

Ferry Tip Manager can get you live the same day. When you're ready, Ferry Pay follows naturally – same platform, same team, no cold starts.
Step 01

Ferry Tip Manager

Every split, every role, every state – automatically.

Connect your POS and set your pooling rules once. Ferry calculates tips for every shift – across every role, every location, every state. No manager input. No spreadsheet.

Ferry Pay Card — Visa prepaid debit card funded instantly at shift end.
Step 02

Ferry Pay

When workers win, operators win.

Ferry Pay handles distribution, pay cards, and earned wage access – all in one. Tips land on a Visa® at shift end. Workers can access earned wages before payday. No bank account needed. Happy workers stay, and that saves you.

Step 03

Live same day. Grow when you're ready.

Ferry sends payroll-ready files automatically, so procurement is faster and ready customers can go live the same day. Ferry Pay follows when the time is right – not as a hard sell.

Payout timeline: shift ends at 11:00 PM, Ferry Pay initiated 11:01 PM, Pay Card funded instantly 11:02 PM, same-day bank deposit 8:00 AM.

your team

Your team worked for those tips.
They shouldn't have to wait for them.

4.3 million tipped workers in the US. Most are still waiting days for money they earned last night. Ferry changes that – tips land automatically at shift end, and workers can access earned wages before payday.

When workers feel financially secure, they show up. They stay. They don't call out on a Friday night. That's the operator ROI – and it compounds.

Shift ends at 11pm

Tips are calculated automatically the moment your team clocks out.

Money lands on their card

Payday isn't the only payday

Earned wage access lets workers tap into what they've already earned, anytime.
The right pay at the right time.
Every shift, every location.
