A Tip Is Small Money With a Big Signal

Sometimes a like feels too light.

A comment feels kind, but still easy.

A share can help, but it does not always say what you want to say.

A subscription feels too much.

Then there is the space in between.

A small tip.

Not a purchase.

Not a monthly plan.

Not a contract.

Just a small amount of money sent because something helped, taught, amused, encouraged, or saved time.

That is what makes tipping different from ordinary payment.

A price says, “Pay this to get that.”

A tip says, “This mattered to me.”
