Americans are tipping less often for a variety of services, demonstrating a steady decline over the last few years, according to new data from Bankrate released this week.
at a sit-down restaurant, unless the service is really bad,” Rossman tells FOX Business.
“I think we should always tip for delivery, too. The exact figure depends on the size of the order – for example, instead of a percentage, it might make sense to tip something like $5 for a pizza,” Rossman adds.“I don’t think you should feel compelled to tip if you’re picking up takeout. That was more of a thing during the pandemic when sit-down dining was shut down,” he continues.Bankrate’s study suggests high inflation and unease about the economy contribute to stingier consumers.
Another study revealed that 50% of U.S. adults who order food delivery always tip the delivery person, but just 31% of Gen Zers, 42% of millennials, and 45% of men do the same.Rossman does think that sometimes the tip creep goes too far. “These pre-entered screens shift the tipping dynamic from needing to actively decide to tip to actively declaring that you don’t want to tip . I suspect a lot of people don’t really want to tip for something like a coffee or food truck order, but they’re guilted into it, and then they feel bad afterward.”The survey reports that people said they would tip better during and after the pandemic, but that hasn’t really lasted, says Rossman.
According to its research, Gen Zers , millennials , and men stand out for being the worst tippers across multiple service categories.“I think this is mostly because they have more money, but also perhaps because they’re more ingrained with the social norms surrounding tipping,” he says. Similarly, 50% of U.S. adults who order food delivery always tip the delivery person, but just 31% of Gen Zers, 42% of millennials, and 45% of men do the same, compared to 54% of women, 63% of Gen Xers, and 62% of baby boomers, Bankrate’s study reports.
