liezel88 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Hi there,Maybe I am being petty or difficult, can someone please explain why Fiverr keeps 20% of the tips?The reason I ask is if a waiter/bartender gets a tip from a customer at a restaurant or pub they do not have to give the owner any part of that, so why with Fiverr?:woman_shrugging:t4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrendesign Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Maybe because fiverr don’t look at you as a waiter but partner and I think 20% isn’t much to share with your partner so good partners work 50/50 so I think it’s better to ask why we don’t put the rest 30% of income to promote fiverr and ourselves this is what I think 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wp_kid Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Fiverr charges commission on tips to make sure there is no abuse of the system. Abuse could prevent Fiverr from utilizing funds to make the site better.
