I tried Uber Eats for the first time here in Japan, and there was a tip option. I feel like tipping is really American, but still I tipped. Sincere question: do the drivers not get paid unless you tip? Appreciate any insights…

@rick
also: do the drivers even receive the whole or part of the tip?

@rickcogley it’s Uber .. so whatever they answer is not to be trusted .. I would ask the delivery person.

@rickcogley The times I've used it, I go to meet the driver and give them a tip in cash, as I also don't know. đź’°

@mejh cash is probably the least problematic for the driver

@JohnPhilpin good point; the app says they get it all but I'm not sure

@dandelionwine the app made a point of saying they get the whole thing
