Foodpanda was unable to comment on tipping.

She told The New Paper:"I wanted to show appreciation for delivery riders. I get to be in the comfort of my home while they expose themselves to the virus to do deliveries." Said a Grab spokesman:"We are grateful to see our users express their appreciation of our drivers and delivery partners' efforts through tipping.

"We hope that our platform can continue to foster community togetherness and cohesiveness during these challenging times."
