Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our platform, security, and how we protect your data.

How secure is this platform?
Our platform uses state-of-the-art security: multiple passwordless authentication methods (magic key email, SMS via Twilio), traditional passwords, OAuth (Google, GitHub, Apple, Slack), optional 2FA/TOTP with backup codes, email verification with rate limiting, secure magic link document portals (no account required for clients), e-signature audit trails with IP/user agent/timestamp (fully compliant with US ESIGN Act and UETA), API rate limiting (1000 read, 500 write, 50 delete per hour), organization-first multi-tenancy with role-based access control, built on Ruby on Rails with PostgreSQL, and self-hosted VAPID web push notifications. Your sensitive financial documents are encrypted with enterprise-grade end-to-end encryption and accessible only to authorized parties: restaurant owners, assigned sales reps, CPAs, and platform administrators with audit access.
How does the Restaurant Tax Credit process work?
Restaurants with tipped employees can recover retroactive tax credits for up to 3 years. Our platform automates the entire workflow: qualification wizard, document collection via secure magic links, CPA review, calculation approval, and commission tracking. Average recovery: $40,000 per restaurant.
What are the commission rates?
Commission rates are configurable via admin settings. Default rates: 15% for sales reps, 10% for CPAs, and 5% for accountants. The platform (agent) receives the remainder after all other payouts. Commissions are automatically calculated when FICA calculations are approved.
Do clients need to create an account to upload documents?
No! Clients receive a secure magic link via email that allows them to upload W-2s and tax documents without creating an account. The link expires after a set period for security. This reduces friction and makes the process as simple as possible for restaurant owners.
How long does the process take?
Average processing time is 45-60 days from document submission to approval. Some clients opt for immediate lending to receive funds upfront while waiting for IRS processing (typically 6-12 months).
Who is eligible for Restaurant Tax Credit s?
Restaurants, bars, cafes, and other businesses with tipped employees (servers, bartenders, hosts) are eligible. The business must have been operating for at least 2 years to claim retroactive credits. Complete our qualification wizard to see if you qualify.
