According to Profeco, in Mexico it is not mandatory to tip.
This act is considered rude and offensive in Japan.
The United States is the only country in the analysis where a tip is 20 percent.
The practice of tipping is a topic that attracts a lot of attention in the area of services throughout the world. For this reason, new research confirms that young adults belonging to generation Z are the least willing to tip, compared to other generations such as baby boomers.
Tipping is known as a voluntary recognition of the consumer to the people who are part of the service chain for the good service and product received, so that in many countries of the world their payment depends entirely on the consumer or not.
In this sense, a study carried out by Comparethemarket highlights that there are many people in the world who do not know how much to tip, and reiterates that one in five tourists surveyed believe that confusion about tips had a negative impact on their stay abroad.
For its part, data published in Visual Capitalist and carried out by Hawaiian Islands, indicates that in more than a third of the countries, giving a 10 percent tip to restaurant staff is the most normal, up to 66 countries, among which there are many Europeans such as France, Portugal or Austria.
While other countries like Serbia, Armenia and Canada have a tip range that tops out at 20 percent. And in the United States it is the only country in the analysis where a 20 percent tip is the minimum that sets the standard.
New data
Recently, new research from Bankrate, a financial services company, highlighted that young adults are the least willing to tip compared to other generations such as baby boomers.
According to the research, currently giving an extra payment for the services purchased is an activity that is less and less frequent among the new generations, since they are focused on other activities.
The research indicated that the tendency to tip correlates with increasing age, with only 35 percent of Gen Z members saying they always tip when dining out at a sit-down restaurant.
For their part, baby boomers, the figure rises to 83 percent. While fewer of the college-age generation said they always tip their hairdressers and barbers.
“A tiny 24 percent of Gen Z respondents said they add tips to the cost of a haircut or color change, while triple that of baby boomers, 70 percent, always tip at the salon. ”, adds the research.
These results also visualized the services where young adults tip the most and one category where Gen Zers appear to be the most generous generation is home repair or services.
“Young adults are the most likely to always tip for such services at 15 percent,” he adds.
“Though at the same time the number reverses when correlated to baby boomers. The latter are the least tipping, at just 6 percent in a reversal of the overall generational trend uncovered through the survey,” he asserts.
As well, tipping practices differ based on the gender of the customer, as men are less likely than women to tip.
