CCPA Investigates Ola, Rapido Over Advance Tipping Concerns

CCPA Investigates Ola, Rapido Over Advance Tipping Concerns

The Indian consumer protection agency is checking if ride-sharing apps like Ola and Rapido are being unfair.

They are looking into the apps asking for tips before the ride is over.

The government thinks it's wrong to make people tip before the service is done.

Tipping should be a reward after the service, not something you have to do to get the service.

Uber started this idea with a feature that suggested tips for faster pickups.

Now, other apps are doing the same thing.

This is causing some arguments online.
