InKind is a financing operation for restaurants. Instead of taking out bank loans, the restaurant gets cash from InKind in exchange for a multiple of that value in food credits.

It's a great deal for the restaurant and for all of us, because food cost is typically 20-25%. That's how InKind can give you 20% back in credits, plus frequent additional "rewards" discounts, and everybody still wins.

So when you dine using InKind funds, you are just drawing down on the credits that the restaurant gave to InKind. So InKind is great for restaurant cash flow, but when you dine, the restaurant collects zero cash.

That's why the credits are for food and not for tips. To the restaurant, tips are separate and unrelated to food cost. $1 in tips costs exactly $1. I think about it like I'm paying the server directly, just like it used to be when the world was cash-based. And some of those InKind credits live on to get me another stacked discount when the next "reward" appears on SlickDeals.

Sure they do, you can't stack the coupons with promo funds (like from cash back or referrals).

Now that all gift cards are non refundable I doubt they would

You can't pay tips with the gift card which is kind of annoying.
You can't pay tips via InKind funds of any type. All tips default to your loaded default CC. Ideally that card has a high multiple for restaurants as the InKind tip charge records as dining.

You can no longer split bills to use reward coupons like $25 off $50 combined with using inkind cash back balance like you used to. Now it errors out when you try to split the bill and use these two for the two separate bills.
