GUIDE

Best tipping practices while traveling

Travel · 2 min read

Tipping customs vary widely across countries and services. Check current local guidance before you travel, and ask a trusted local source when you are unsure.

Read the receipt for service charges and included gratuities. A percentage that is common at home may not be expected at your destination.

Choose the bill’s currency before calculating. Use currency conversion as an estimate, since your bank or payment provider may use a different rate or charge a fee.
