I imagine the product people working on Square payment terminals do nothing besides optimizing this.

  Yeah, a voice command on payment terminal, that shouts loudly at niggardly tippers "Hey there! looky look we have cheapskate award winner for today" will certainly help.

    Props for use of the word niggardly, but I don't think that would work. I certainly would never again to to a business where that happened, even if it was someone else that it happened to.

      Well, if 5% of places have this software one can avoid, if > 50% have this it will be normalized then. Just like 20% tipping is normal without any expectation beyond a plate of food placed on your table and waiter never returns except to bring in check.
