The split desk
Managing artist commissions.
Keep The Fees takes the manual work out of commissions with service-based rates, tiered commissions, and bonus structures. Set different percentages for services, products, or individual artists to match your shop’s needs.
- Service-based rates
- Set different commission rates for different services. Tattoos, piercings, and products can each have their own percentage.
- Customizable structures
- Create unique commission structures for each artist based on experience, specialization, or any criteria you choose.
- Automated calculations
- Let the software handle the math. Commissions are calculated automatically with every transaction.
- Real-time reports
- View commission breakdowns in real time. Artists can check their earnings anytime, keeping everyone informed.
No math
The back office splits it for you.
Every payment, already divided
Every payment divides itself by the rate you set once. No manual calculations, no confusion. Just accurate payouts, every transaction.

Your rules
Flexible commission options.
- Individual products
- Assign commissions based on individual products or product categories.
- Per artist rates
- Set different commission rates for each artist based on experience or specialization.
- Deposit-specific rates
- Set different commission rates for deposits versus final payments.
- Tiered commissions
- Rates that step up automatically as an artist’s sales climb. Hit the next tier, earn the bigger split. No renegotiating, no spreadsheet.
- Bonus structures
- Layer bonuses on top of the base split to reward the numbers you care about. The software tracks and pays them out with everything else.
How shops split
Every arrangement, without a spreadsheet.
No two shops split the same way, and most shops don’t split the same way for every artist. Set the arrangement once per artist and the software applies it to every transaction after that.
- Straight percentage
- The classic 60/40 or 70/30 on everything an artist takes. Set it once and stop doing arithmetic at closing.
- Different rate per service
- Tattoo work, piercing and retail can each carry their own percentage, because the shop’s cost on each is different.
- Tiered by volume
- Rates that step up on their own as an artist’s sales climb. They hit the tier, they get the better split, and nobody has to renegotiate mid-month.
- Separate deposit handling
- Deposits can split differently from the final payment, which matters when a client cancels and the deposit is forfeited.
What artists see
Payday stops being a conversation.
Most commission friction comes from arithmetic nobody can see. When an artist watches their own split land on every sale as it happens, there is nothing left to work out at the end of the week.
- Artists see their earnings in real time, on their own phone
- The split is applied at the transaction, not reconstructed later from receipts
- No manual math, so no manual math errors to find later
- The same figures flow straight into payroll, so the two can’t disagree
- Bonuses layer on top of the base split and pay out with everything else
- Historical breakdowns are there when someone asks about a month from last year
