If that’s the case , HK, 27, and any others take card for the service it self? 28 men spa takes card but may charge 5-7% fee. I don’t remember exactly.

Wolfer Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Regarding the tip, when I went to Shangri-la in 2019 I paid by card and put my tip on my card too (I didn't have any cash on me) and the masseur seemed very grateful (I tipped 100% because he went above and beyond) so I think the tips paid by card are still correctly distributed to the corresponding masseur. I would hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope so. I had a masseur at a NYC spa who I got pretty close to and he told me that often when you tip on the card, the masseurs have no clue how much you tipped and some spa owners will cheat the workers by not giving them the full amount because they don’t get the tip automatically like they would cash. I don’t know if this is true everywhere but I now only tip in Cash, even if I pay for the service with a card and I always give the provider the tip directly. This method seems to be very appreciated by the masseurs and they often are more enthusiastic about seeing me because of it.

This is true, and they also charge the masseurs the tax for the tips, depending on how much you tip them. So they do not get the 100%. Better in cash.

How odd he came in personally to tell you he couldn't do the massage (instead of another masseur just telling you he wasn't available) He’s tall. Not sure where he was before that. Yeah it was super weird and made me very uncomfortable. Not sure what his issue is. The one time I saw him he gave a great massage and I tipped him well.
