It's what makes Uber delightful tho. You just hop out and get on with your day. No impatient cabbie with his hand out. It's fine with me.

- kevinpet 14y agoFine, but don't call it a gratuity. Call it a service fee. "Mandatory gratuities" make me look for another service provider.
- thehaxattax 14y agoAgreed with this, but I can get over it for now.
- masterzora 14y agoIf I understand this properly, it is a gratuity. The way I understand it, the taxi is still a normal taxi in operation but essentially has hooked into Uber to give it a new way to find fares and to have people pay. If this is the case, then the rate is the same with or without Uber and you still need to pay the gratuity and Uber just automatically selects that gratuity to be 20%. It's actually appreciably different from Uber choosing a rate and then adding a 20% automatic gratuity on top of it.
- chrischen 14y agoThey make you rate them, so you have to do that interaction anyways. Not really much more inconvenience if there was a slider or buttons there for tip %.
