collecting tips

Amassing service bonuses

Collecting tips refers to the practice of gathering gratuities left by customers, typically in service industries like restaurants, bars, or hotels.

The phrase can describe either the physical act of retrieving tip money from tables or tip jars, or the broader concept of earning tips as part of one's income: She made an extra hundred dollars collecting tips on a busy Saturday night.
