Why does Fiverr tax our tips too?

Tips are tips, for the seller. It makes sense to charge the 20% from the actual order, but why does Fiverr take 20% from tips too?

This is a situation that I cannot understand, but I don't think they will make any changes in this regard.

As you said it's a tips. Whatever how much you received, it's a tips. Personally, I have no problems with the 20% of the tips.

Because unfair sellers, can agree on a gig of $5, and ask for the rest of the amount in tips. There is a risk of not getting the money, but I think this is the reason why fiverr takes 20 %

I think this is not a reason because the limit can be determined according to the price amount of the order. Fiverr is a big business and I'm sure it can generate better ideas.

Have great day.
