Tipping is a voluntary choice
A tip can be a personal thank-you. There is no need to follow a fixed percentage or a supposedly customary Swiss amount. Decide according to your budget and the work actually delivered. PUTZIO’s CHF 40 hourly customer price is a service price, not a statement of take-home wages.

When to say thank you
Wait until you can assess the result. If an agreed task was done particularly carefully, say exactly what you appreciated. A tip does not require unpaid extra work and does not replace feedback or the agreed price.
Choose an amount that suits you
If you wish to give money, choose an amount you are comfortable with. A small amount of your choosing, or no tip, is a personal decision. Friendly, specific thanks is also a way to show appreciation.
Give it directly and clearly
Ask the cleaner whether and how they would like to accept a personal thank-you. If giving cash, make clear it is additional to the agreed price. Do not leave unlabelled money among personal belongings; clear communication avoids misunderstandings.
Appreciation without money
Specific thanks, respectful communication and a well-prepared home also help. Give honest feedback on agreed tasks. Recommendations should reflect your own experience; do not promise rewards for positive reviews.
Keep price and appreciation clear
PUTZIO offers routine apartment cleaning at CHF 40 per hour in supported municipalities. The cleaner brings cleaning products at no extra charge; you provide a vacuum cleaner, mop and bucket when needed. Agree on the priority tasks for the time booked.
