How much do you tip a slot machine attendant?
For those who visit and still enjoy the services of these live casino operators, am curious as to know how you tip the attenders. Do you tip only when you are winning and how much is too much tip to give? Also, I do not think online casinos even have this option, but if there is, can you share?

In most parts of US, any payout of more than $1,200 is paid in person by the slot floor person. The tipping here starts with a minimum amount of $20 and can be up between 3-10 percent of the jackpot reward. It however, depends on the discretion of the customer.

Do you think it is necessary to give tips or it is just a tradition that is required?



It's been awhile since I visited a land based casino. The few times I had gone there with friends just to have a good time. I remember tipping one of the attendants $5 equivalent in my local fiat. After I won a jackpot. It was all for fun and me and buddies ended up spending the rest on drinks and food. I also tip the attendant at the local shop where I bet on football. I only tip them whenever I win and in a good mood. But it is always between the range of 3% - 5%.

As much as I wanted to give tips, really hard because my  capital is really small in the first place. But in land base based casinos, I noticed that there are players who give tips to dealers with once condition, that is, if this win big. And probably its more prevalent in the US casino though as compare to Asia casinos like Macao. So probably it really up to the culture to give back to the dealer that gave them a good and huge win.
I think that was bribery and that was wrong because the casino owner will lose more money this way if the dealer will let most of their customers win. The only way this can be appropriate is when you don't say/give condition to the dealer before the game starts. You will only give a tip to them as a way of saying thanks because you think that dealer is lucky.

I think it's also possible for the dealer to entertain their players right? This is one of the reason why some gamblers can give a tip to them. Dealers are being paid by the casino because this is their jobs so I don't really give them a tip but I only give tips to my close friends and family if ever I won a really huge amount.

The tipping culture is a big deal AFAIK in the US.

But for me, it's not that needed at all and no one can stop someone tipping others or urge others to do it because it's like a gift and we give it based on our free will and emotion.

We're not forced in doing it but if you feel that you've got to give, give happily.

Its not actually necessary but rather it would really be just depending on someone whether he would be giving out some tips on the time he would win jackpot or something big.
~snip~
^Definitely right, it is not necessary and not your obligation to tip them.
But a tradition of giving tips especially when you have hit the jackpot is not new in gambling. As mentioned on the first page, Rollbit.com has this function by sending tips, though I did not try it yet because I did not send tips but this feature is available on Rollbit.com. If you feel to give any small amount in return f their good service, that is not a problem either.
Its not really your obligation considering that these people are really having that salary on doing their job but it is really just some showing some appreciation or really that
have in good mood and this is why people do really give out tips despite that these people doesnt really need nor expecting but it is really somewhat giving off that
good feeling anytime you do share up some blessing even on peanuts but at least you have done on things that you do like.Its really in kind of voluntarily
be done by someone who do win which as long you arent forced then it should be fine.

It’s more on a tradition that is not required anyway. You can or you can’t give a tip, that’s actually your choice. But for some regular gamblers, I bet giving tips is one way to show the staffs or attendants that they are being appreciated and gamblers are thankful of that. Even myself, I usually give tips regardless of any amount, but  when I’m into big profits, I make sure that I can leave them bigger amount of tips too.
So far, I understand that tipping is more or less a gesture to show appreciation, as an offer of goodwill , as a way to attract luck and so on. It really only depends on the player. To those who consider it a habit that was borne out of an initial show of courtesy and perhaps decide not to tip on their next visit to the casino, it is also okay.

It's a part of tradition it's not obligatory but it can tell the kind of person you are if you're winning when you are tipping the guy who guides when you need it so tip if you win a big amount, there is such a thing as a lucky attendant and I know a friend who keeps winning in a slot because of the nice attendant who always wish him well everything he makes a spin, so as a sign of goodwill its good to tip even a small amount.

There are several reasons for tipping dealers, dealers usually earn slightly more than minimum wage from the casino they work for. And most of the money they make is in tips and betting offers and if you get a big win why can't it hurt to tip a little for a meal, tipping is not mandatory it's up to your conscience when you hit a big win.
If you are only going to tip, give it when you get up to leave and don't tip while you are still at the table or still playing.

The tipping culture that America has is totally bizarre and alien to how most countries operate, so it's a bad guide stick to how you should be expected to react. Why would you give anything specifically to "slot machine attendants"? It's not like they're a croupier that is running a game table which requires a lot of concentration and skill to perform. These people should be paid an adequate wage to do a rather basic job, which I can only assume entails helping customers with how to play games and maybe running drinks - hardly an intense job or something special. Sure, if you get a big win you might tip a staff member or two who are close by, besides that I doubt they are expecting anything more.

Their work is very simple, but it is not difficult to tip people, especially after good earnings. I've already earned a good amount, and one has the thought that if I give this amount, nothing will happen. The movie Casino Royal comes to mind in such cases. James Bond tipped the dealer $100,000 when he won $100 million in the final of the poker game. I have never forgotten that scene. When I win, I always tip a certain amount.

Indeed, online gambling players themselves hunt for free bets and rain if there are such in the online casinos in which they play, online casinos themselves provide tips for their dealers that bring profit to the platform.

Well it depends if you like to give or not since giving tip to anyone is not mandatory. If someone pressure you to do so and you are not comfortable with it then ignore them because its your money and you are the one who can decide if we want to keep your winnings. But if you can afford to give well this is also good because for sure people will remember the blessings you give and might you will also share the same vibes which if they win they also give tip to other people to.

If I win, sure. Why the hell not? If not, then I don't see the point in tipping at all. I already lost enough funds for the day to even consider tipping at this point. Plus, those attendants should already have their income covered by their salaries and not really expect a tip on every person that plays on the casino/platform. I don't have anything against the tipping culture, perhaps it should not be mandatory nor required at all because employers should pay their employees a fair and liveable wage. I'm pretty sure not everyone on the casino will be happy with being forced to tip anyway.

Tipping is a pretty controversial topic. In some countries people never tip because it is not in their culture. I am not sure but Germany is probably one of these countries. (Somehow I remember this)

In my personal opinion, If you made any money during your gambling session, giving away tips wouldn’t really hurt. If you got the attention you deserved, even though that’s their job to show you attention, it is a good gesture. Collecting tips make people love their jobs more. It makes them feel that they are actually having their own business.

I think we should tip hardworking people whenever it is possible.

I think tipping is mostly an American custom which most international people tend to ignore. Personally, I am ok with tipping, as a reward, if they did an extraordinary job or went the extra mile just for you. Otherwise there is no point. And quite right too! Why would you give someone a reward for no reason? There has to be a good reason, if you ask me.

Furthermore as far as live casinos are concerned, I am not a huge fan of them. It seems rather unnecessary and in smaller, unknown casinos a quite risky way to play. A game should be provably fair and have no/as few ways to exploit as possible. Both from the side of the gamblers and the casino owners.

If you are betting hundreds of thousands and have a lot of money, then tipping is not an issue.

I don't it's necessary to give tips but there's that joy you feel whenever you are winning big numbers and that's when you get generous and try to share it.
Before in physical casinos, I was doing this but it will matter how much I made. I won't just give an amount that I think is not suitable for my profits.
If I think my hands are getting full, I give some, but if I think it's not enough yet then I will be the snobbish type, like, "not yet".  Cheesy

It depends on each gambler and dealers should not expect anything, they are trained to do their job so it's just a bonus if you give them some.

Its a tradition and a sign of goodwill to tip slot machine attendants because subconsciously these attendants wish you to win so you can tip them, and it all depends on your winning and your generosity, I usually tip 5% of the amount I won that's not bad because these attendants have a good salary and there are many slot bettors that they are assisting.

It's not really necessary but it is a sign of goodwill so you will have a repeat win next time you play a slot, gamblers should be a little generous to those who assist them.

I don't tip the slot machine attendant because I play slots through online casinos Grin

But I see some of my friends give different tips and according to them, it's a gift if they can win a lot of money. But if they don't win, they don't tip and go straight home.

Tipping is not mandatory and it is up to each player. And slot machine attendants know that and they don't really expect to receive tips from guests because they already get paid.

I don't give tips if I am not winning yet, especially when I am just about to start. Poker is where most tips usually happen. The attendant/dealer, if I feel like he/she is adding to my luck then he would receive a good amount after I win.
But if I do lose, I cannot afford or cannot think about giving anyone anything as my brain is only focused on how to get it back.
I have not seen an attendant in a physical slot, do they really exist? I thought they are just security for those who are trying to cheat the game.

I guess it's not necessary, but it feels good when you share!

My sister works in a casino and recently she and her colleague got a 50 euros tip from a guy who hit some jackpot on some slot there. There are always people who win and who like to share, it's also some sort of superstition, by sharing you are hoping to get lucky again in the future.

An interesting story from the newspaper the other day... Some guy won over $60k, with a sports parlay! He placed a $10 bet and he won crazy big. What attracted attention was that he bought breakfast for 3 employees in that casino (some pastries and yogurt, which is probably less than $5).
It woke up the internet trolls and everyone had their own opinion on whether it was okay or not! How would some of them act if they won so much in the casino?
Unnecessary discussion in my opinion... simply some people like to share and some don't. And tipping shouldn't be something mandatory in my opinion, then it loses its meaning, we tip when we are feeling up for that, and nobody feels like that all the time (if you are not a billionaire).

Tipping casino attendants might be triggered by some factors. The frame of mind of the gambler at that point is very important. If the gambler is in a good mood or happy he might freely give to the casino staff. There are claims that gamblers that use alcohol are always happy to freely give tips. But an unhappy or challenged person would always be concerned about his problems and not the people around him. Big wins can also spur gamblers to give tips, while a loss would discourage such kind gestures. Another factor is the kind of service or the approach of the attendant. A good service would always attract reward, while an arrogant or inexperienced attendant might never attract tips or reward from gamblers.

Though tipping is being done voluntarily and cultural, I usually do it when I get lucky and have good winnings. I believe that we're not forced to tip them but we can do it out of love. I once tipped a machine attendant before and he was really happy and wasn't able to hide his emotions knowing that his son is sick and he could use the tipped money for his medication. Sometimes, our simple act of kindness could mean a lot to others.

I have a similar opinion. I sometimes tip when I win, but it's not a rule that I follow or anything.
Tipping should always be a personal choice, not forced like it is sometimes in the US where a tip is added to your bill whether you like it or not.

I don't tip in online games, even with a live dealer. I don't really feel a connection with other people through an app. I come from a culture where 20 years ago most people did not hear about tipping, so I try to do it but I don't do it very often.
Personally, I do tipping too whenever I appreciate their good services, regardless if I’m in loss or in profits. As long as I felt love and happiness that time, the generous side of me eventually come out. But I do believe giving tips is not compulsory, it should be done with your own willingness and kind heart. Most particularly if that attendant has been very good to me everytime I bet, surely that person will always receive a reward.
