Elle Rustique, PhD

CEO & Founder

I'm a social scientist and educator turned social entrepreneur on a mission to revolutionize the tipped service industry through cashless tipping.

Growing up, tips mattered to me, my sister, and brother. We always knew when Mom earned a tip because she’d take us for a special treat. When I was traveling, I didn’t have cash. As a social scientist, I saw that this would have a disproportionate impact on tipped wage workers. I wanted to solve this problem for women, like my mom.
