Do you, as a person who delivers through DoorDash or UberEats or what have you, prefer to be tipped through the app or in cash?

    Over here in germany, tipping is synonymous with cash and using the tip feature of apps is frowned upon because it adds an unnecessary middleman.

    Not sure how transferrable that is to other countries, us germans really like cash.

        Tipping in germany is a thing. The culture here is much less intense about it than the american tipping culture.

        People tip often in service. Gastronomy, hair dressers, home cleaners. But nothing crazy like the USA. 10% is usually a great tip.

          I hate it I hate it I hate it. Here the minimum most places offer without you doing a custom is 15% for most things and 20% for restaurants

      I was hungry once and ordered a lot of stuff from one place at lieferando. I was really looking forward to it and was in a good mood, so I pre tipped through their app. They cancelled my order but kept the tip.

      Never again.
