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?

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

      You won’t get a bad service if you don’t tip and in my student time I rarely tipped, but never had a bad experience with this. Now that I have the money, I usually have a batch of 5€ and 10€ banknotes with me, specifically for tips. I try to tip around 10% and the people usually are really grateful.

      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

          Do custom without shame! They are bullying you. These card readers with tip suggestions are getting annoyingly coming here too. One time in Berlin I went to a donut stand and the suggested tips started at 10%. I gave them 1 star on Google maps and complained. They replied that that’s just how the machine works. I know perfectly well that’s customizable…
