文章来源背景和来源:

Tipping point: the apps that make rewarding good service easier and fairer

小费时间:那些让赞赏优质服务更便捷、更公平的应用程序

背景:2020年现金交易整体下降三分之一,且有1370人已经完全无现金生活,是2019年人数的两倍。顺应疫情加速的电子支付潮流,餐馆开始使用电子小费应用程序。但无现金小费的去向会和食客们最初想的不一样,以往的现金小费往往会留在具体服务的服务员手中,但电子小费会让一切集中化和平均化,甚至以往完全不可能收到小费的厨师也会收到一部分。这令一些服务员等前台人员十分不悦,他们认为服务员的工资很低,主要靠小费来补贴,而厨师的工资本身就已经很高。另一方面,电子小费平台也会按比例收取一定的服务费。当然,总的来说,无现金交易会因为便捷让更多人愿意支付小费。
