Allow your budtenders to round a customer’s cart total up to the nearest whole dollar with a single click — reducing cash-handling friction and simplifying checkout.
Enable Cart Round Up
Use the Menu to navigate to Account
Scroll down or select the section on the left that says Cashier
Ensure the user configuring this has the Store Settings permission.
Enable the setting Allow Cart Totals to be Rounded Up
Give the Round Up Fee a Name
This will print on the receipt and in reporting
Some common names for this fee are Round-Up Fee, No Change, or some dispensaries choose to enter an organization to which they plan to donate this money.
Save all Settings in the upper right corner.
Use Cart Rounding at Checkout
Create a cart as usual in your budtender checkout flow.
Once items are added and discounts applied, the Round Total button will appear in the cart
Click Round Total. The system will add a fee equal to the difference between the current cart total and the next whole dollar amount (for example: $43.23 → $44.00).
If you change the cart (add/remove items) and want to revert the rounding, click Remove Rounding to remove the fee and restore the original total.
Select Collect Payment and enter their payment information. The receipt will print with the Round Up fee name on it.
Reporting & Financial Considerations
All transactions where cart rounding is used will have the “Cart Total Round Up Fee” included in your reporting and accounting.
For example, here is an accounting report with the Fee name listed.
Best Practices & Tips
Train your team so they understand that rounding doesn’t change item prices or taxes – only the cart total.
Use the custom fee name to clearly communicate to customers why the rounding exists (e.g., “Round Up for Charity” or “Support our Team”).
Monitor how often rounding is used and whether it impacts cash-drawer discrepancies.
Decide ahead of time under what conditions rounding is permitted (e.g., only cash sales, or when the customer agrees).
Review your reporting: the rounding fee will show up in your accounting reports just like any other fee.
If you use the label “for charity,” you may want to set up internal tracking or reconciliations accordingly (even if the rounding fee goes into general revenue).
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the rounding affect each individual item’s price or tax calculation?
No. Items, discounts, and taxes remain calculated as usual. The rounding fee is an additional line item added after the subtotal to bring the total to the next whole dollar.
Can I disable the rounding button for certain cashiers or roles?
No, once this setting is enabled, it will populate for all employees who can process a sale. Training and role-control help enforce policy.
Is the rounding fee mandatory for every sale once enabled?
No. Enabling the setting makes the rounding option available, but applying it is still a manual action at checkout (via the “Round Total” button).
Whoohoo! 💃
Once you’ve enabled the setting, trained your team, and started rounding cart totals when appropriate, the workflow is complete. Monitor its usage and adjust your policy as needed.
