Tipping in the U.S. is on the rise to such a degree that experts call it 'tipflation.' With Americans being pressured to tip more, where's the tipping point?
During the 1950s, people commonly tipped 10% of the bill. By the 1970s and 1980s, that percentage had jumped to 15%.
In February 2020, just before the pandemic began, in food and drink specifically, the share of remote transactions when tipping was offered was 43.4%, according toMeanwhile, if people were willing to give the person delivering food to their home a 30% tip for service, why not ask if they'd like to tip when they come to pick up? Restaurants started doing that more often — and that practice hasn't ebbed.
To that point, 22% of respondents said when they're presented with various suggested tip amounts, they feel pressured to tip more than they normally would, according to Creditcards.com.
