Changing Automatic Gratuity Tip Rate

TipRate = YES

The following values require 3.03.16

BasePercentLimitOverAuth=1000
;This controls the base amount that can be changed over the auth amount,
;in percentage. The default is 1000%, which is 10 times the auth amount.

;percentage. The default is 200%, which is 2 times the auth amount.
