gratuities
Money for servers
Gratuities is the plural of gratuity—money given beyond what's owed, typically for service.
The word sounds more formal than tip: Gratuities are included in the bill.
Signs reading "No gratuities accepted" appear where tipping might seem inappropriate.
In some contexts, gratuity suggests a larger sum or bonus rather than the coins left on a restaurant table.
