It doesn't have to be like this, America. Not only is tipping not expected in Australia, but when the "Choose tip" screen comes up on US made software, all the servers I've ever had skip straight through it and choose zero.
Servers deserve to be paid fairly.

US corpo parasite is attempting to export this shite so they can charge their parasite fee on higher gross amount...
Pathetic
This is why I have stopped dining out, if the business demands excess to then pay staff and without tips staff go unpaid then what is it I am supporting.
I award you no tips, and may God have mercy on your soul!
This would get an immediate Custom -> 0% from me the moment I see it.
Fucking "soso" for a 20% tip the hell
If this is in a restaurant after I've eaten, it would get 0% and I'd never go there again.
If this is presented to me somewhere you pay before consuming your food/purchase, I'm leaving without paying.
As a dev I would try negative value in the custom field.
Man I'd leave a 1% tip just in case someone sees it and realizes that it was on purpose because I'm annoyed with the UX
Also, holy hell, am I glad to live in a country that doesn't do tipping*. It was a bit weird going to the US and not knowing when to tip and when not to, but I doubt I'll be revisiting y'all in the next 4 years anyway :(
*At restaurants with table service, it's considered polite, but not necessary, to tip, if you enjoyed the experience.
There's no 20 it's 30%!! Insane.

Custom 0%
It ain't my job to pay your employees salaries
Maybe it's your job to avoid patronizing places that don't pay their employees enough though?
No, it's not, however as a near-minimum wage worker myself, it is also not my job to cover a massive corporation's lack of proper budgeting...

I absolutely will pick the no-tips place given a choice, but I take issue with that wording. Basically every business pays as little as possible, by design.

30% is "soso" but a 100% is only "Thank You"? In this case the 100% should be "Walk over to the other side of the register so the boss can blow You".
I don't mind paying for the convenience. I tip well. I do wish we lived in a country where living wages were a thing. But we don't. We're a giant slave colony owned by like 5 megacorps.
My question here is, how much was the bill? 5 or $600?
95, lol, the percentages are there on the screen
Yep. Sure is. Hopefully that makes my blonde moment quota for a few days.

This would be an automatic "custom" > 0% for me. Sorry, not sorry.
If you can't afford living wages for your staff so they're not dependant on tips, your store shouldn't be open.
Everyone working a job should be making a living wage. "Oh, but then the price of my McDonald's cheeseburger will skyrocket!!" Fucking good. If it's not economical to produce a product without abusing people, that product shouldn't exist. Period. I will die on this hill.

The moment they ask for a tip they are not getting anything nor a repeat customer.
