Dominos start tipping customers if they tip delivery drivers Dominos\/Unsplash: Pablo PachecoDomino\u2019s recently introduced a new deal that includes paying customers who choose to tip their delivery drivers. Tipping at fast food restaurants has long been the subject of contention. Back in March, a customer lowered the tip at a popular chain when the waiter tried to set the amount for them. Meanwhile, a server went viral after they told customers to \u201cserve themselves,\u201d when they informed her that they wouldn\u2019t be tipping. In a study by CouponBirds, they found that 5% of Americans think tipping culture has gone too far, with 65% of people who \u201cguilt tip\u201d saying that they do this to \u201cavoid awkwardness\u201d with wait staff and delivery drivers. Domino\u2019s however, has come up with a clever solution that creates a win-win scenario for both customers and delivery drivers. In the new initiative, called \u201cYou Tip, We Tip,\u201d the chain will dole out $3 coupons valid for one week every time a customer tips $3 or more to their delivery driver. The promotion began on Monday, April 29 \u2014 and it\u2019s not specified when it will come to an end. \u201cDomino\u2019s drivers have been hustling to deliver hot, delicious pizzas since 1960, and we love that customers have been tipping them for their great service since day one,\u201d said Domino\u2019s Senior Vice President and Chief Brand Officer, Kate Trumbull, in a company release. \u201cBut these days, everywhere you go, there\u2019s a tip screen. The pressure to tip is real, even when no extra service is provided. So, we decided to flip the script and show our appreciation by tipping customers back.\u201d To cash in on more deals in the future, customers can sign up to the Domino\u2019s app.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
