Not customer friendly: I want to decide for myself whether to tip or not!

Different tipping options mean: Only those who give something are good customers.
Rolf KromerEconomics Editor

At some point, being bossy is a good thing! I order myself a cup of coffee, and as I pay, the card reader asks me if I want to tip 5, 10, or 15 percent. I want to decide for myself whether I want to tip; Not because a device asks me to.

Also: Which service should this be for in takeaway offers? I’m always happy to give something when I sit in a restaurant because I know wages are low in the catering industry. I’ll pay more than 15 percent if the service is excellent.

The Swiss are really stingy when it comes to tips

It is important for me as a customer that I am not under pressure. Of course: I also have the option of pressing the button on the card reader that says “Skip.”

But I felt like I had no choice. Because the view of different tipping options means that only those who give something are good customers. Anyone who clicks “skip” is being stingy. I am given the feeling of remorse and stinginess. Even though the staff did nothing but push a cup of coffee onto the counter.
