I suspect decreasing tips also has a lot to do with tip exhaustion, I think it's becoming increasingly acceptable (at least in my circles) to hit the "custom" option and put in a smaller-that-suggested tip (or even nothing at all).
- ziml77 1y agoIt's tough to continue to do percentage based tips when the prices have become so high.

- assword 1y agoIronically, those stupid tip kiosks have cost severs tip amountage with me I used to drink a fair bit, so at the end of a tab, I did not want to do arithmetic and would just put an “easy” number that looked good. This could often be upwards of 35% But if you stick a touch screen in my face with even easier, one-two taps on a preselected amount, I’ll go with that. Also I’ve accidentally no tipped a few times with them because I get frustrated with the incessant screens asking about receipts, emails, etc. that I just click past the tip screen.
- 0cf8612b2e1e 1y agoMaybe this has more to do with the volume of stores now using Square? Many places I will never tip have now been requesting a percentage.
- JohnFen 1y agoI've stopped tipping through the POS devices entirely. Now when I tip, it's in cash and an amount I've decided on, not an amount the business is trying to talk me into. I also have reverted to only tipping for traditionally tipped stuff, not the everyone and their dog who asks.
- FireBeyond 1y agoYeah, there are two (nothing special) places near me whose default tip options are 25, 30, 35% and custom. For counter service, not table.
- IanHalbwachs 1y agoKnowing myself, I would probably stop going to these places for this reason alone.
