Here's the right way to update your tip on Zomato
What's the story
The convenience of ordering food through apps like Zomato has become an integral part of our lives.
And, one way to express our gratitude for this service is by tipping those who bring our favorite meals to our doorsteps, contributing to a pleasant dining experience at home.
This tutorial walks you through the easy process of changing the tip amount when ordering on the Zomato app for Android devices.
Order and checkout
Selecting your meal and proceeding to checkout
After launching the Zomato app and signing in to your account, select your preferred restaurant and add the items you want to your cart.
When you're ready to proceed, tap on the cart icon. This will take you to the "Checkout" option.
At this point, you'll see a summary of your order, including the items, subtotal, and any applicable taxes or fees.
Tip adjustment
Adding a tip to your order
Under the subtotal section on the checkout page, you will see an option labeled "Add a tip for your order."
Clicking on this will let you choose from preset tip amounts: ₹10, ₹20, or ₹50. Pick one that you feel acknowledges the hard work of the delivery person.
Note that this tipping function only works with online payment methods, ensuring tips are directly transferred without Zomato taking any cut.
Order confirmation
Finalizing your generosity
After choosing a tip and finalizing your payment, the final step is to simply confirm your order. This small act of kindness will go a long way in supporting those who bring your meals to you.
Zomato also gives you the option to tip the kitchen staff after your delivery or while rating your order, allowing you to extend your appreciation to everyone involved in preparing your meal.
