MODERATORS
Because they treat their riders like shit (not only Glovo, every delivery company) and they also take a big cut from the shops, so if I want to order some pizza for example I call directly the pizza guy from the pizzeria or the supermarket delivery But if you absolutely need to use a delivery service at least give a nice tip to the rider, unfortunately in my country tips are uncommon, very few people give it and usually is just some coins
Are you speaking from experience? What do you consider a decent tip and do they actually go to the riders?
Yes I was a rider for a brief period, your pay is calculated on the time and distance of your delivery but when you meet the client they can give you cash as a tip, you don’t have to declare it so Glovo wouldn’t even knew about it
Just a few euros are fine, only one time a woman gave me 5€, people here don’t use to tip but if they do they give you just the spare change from their pockets
Always feel bad as I soldem have cash to tip and depend on the in app tip feature. Guess it's not too much effort to have cash reserves if it's as bad for riders as you say.
