But what are the social norms around Lyft tipping?
Whenever I ride with Lyft, I feel obligated to tip since I assume that drivers keep a lower cut of the ride revenue.
Is this actually the case?
- arasmussen 11y agoLyft gives drivers a larger portion of the ride's cost (80% instead of 70% IIRC). I never feel obligated to tip, but tip if the service was great.
- dopeboy 11y agoI'll tip when driver went up and beyond what I was expecting (helping me load and unload furniture, stopping at a point not on the lyft line route, etc).
- pbreit 11y agoNope, the opposite. Lyft's basic take rate is lower. And active Lyft drivers can have their fees cut in half or even eliminated. Tipping on Lyft is not awkward. Defaults to 0.00, tip if you want. Driver doesn't find out immediately.
