Adding Staff Members in Bustle keeps service running smoothly and makes it easy to track who’s doing what - whether it’s taking orders, processing payments, or voids and refunds. And with logins powered by a fun three-emoji combo, your team gets a secure and speedy way to sign in. Plus, built-in wage cost fields help you keep an eye on staffing costs right from the Bustle Hub.
Setting Up
Head to your Bustle Hub and go to Setup > Staff Members.
Your main account login is already set up with a three-emoji pin.
Use the Enable Staff Logins button to toggle this feature on or off (also needs a Sync Menu on the till).
Click New Staff Member to:
Enter their first & last name.
Enable Till Access for staff members using the Bustle Till.
Select three fun emojis for their login.
Fill in wage cost fields (optional but VERY handy for reporting!).
For security, keep this page away from prying eyes.

Syncing to Your iPad
Once your team is set up, grab the iPad(s) and complete the setup:
Open the Bustle till app.
Go to Settings.
Press Sync Menu.
A login screen will now appear, ready for staff to use their emoji pins.
Using Staff Logins
Staff simply tap or swipe their three emojis to log in. The emoji login screen automatically locks after every transaction or action, and after 60 seconds of inactivity.
Once an order or transaction is completed, the staff member’s initials will appear in history next to their actions. Tap on the initials to reveal the full name.
You’ll also see their name on:
✅ Order dockets
✅ Cash-ups
✅ The History screen in your Bustle Hub
