How do you answer: "The tip is on there for you right?"

I hate getting this question.

I recently decided that I would just blindly agree and take my chances. I would rather have a few tips possibly fall through the cracks than let the customer know that I have no way of knowing if they tipped me or not.

"If you used the app to tip, then yes. Thank you."

I like to keep the customer thinking that I know that I received the tip and exactly how much it was for.

Lol why? It's normally 10 to 15%.

I certainly wouldn't like them to know that I have no idea if they tipped me or not. How do you think that might change tipping behavior?

Sadly that won't change a thing. Tipping behavior is more innate than result of the environment. Big tippers usually tip big no matter what and cheapskates tip small no matter what. That's how it is...

This is likely a first time buyer... just say, thank you very much to every customer assuming they tipped 10-20 percent. With skip the dishes we got to see the tip and I'd usually say thanks for the generous tip if it was over $7.
