My personal view is that the rates should be set such that tipping is not expected. That remains the main draw of Uber for me.

- azernik 9y agoLyft actually has higher rates (for the driver) than Uber.
- linkregister 9y agoCan you add information? Their websites both claim that drivers earn 25% of the fare.
- omarforgotpwd 9y agoI don't always tip, but sometimes you meet a driver who deserves a tip or seems like they might need it and it's good to have the option to do that without using cash. The tip is entirely optional and $0 by default so there is really no downside to offering this option, even for people who will never use it.
- solipsism 9y agoTipping is actually expected by your Uber driver, though, despite what Uber says. The difference is that Lyft drivers will never know whether you tipped or not. Uber drivers, on the other hand, might give you a poor rating for not tipping. As someone who also is skeptical of tipping, I can't for the life of me see why you'd prefer the Uber model.
