Singapore KTV Tipping Guide in 2022

History

Butterfly (Running Multiple Rooms)

  • Happy Hour: S$50 / S$70
  • Normal Hour: S$100

Girls usually run a maximum of 4-5 rooms. You can tip S$150 for exceptional service, but S$100 is the standard rate. Sunday happy hours typically run all day. Request girls with fewer rooms (1-2) from management for longer attention, and provide tips at session's end.

Booking (Exclusive Service)

S$400 - S$500 per session. This ensures the hostess serves only you and doesn't entertain other rooms except for bathroom breaks. Some establishments allow girls to host 1 additional room with a booking for $300, though the hostess will be away approximately 15 minutes each hour.

Tips for Mummy/Papa (Management)

S$100 is standard. This amount can be negotiated lower if service was unsatisfactory. Tips may be given anytime if you know the manager well, or at the session's end.

Tips for Waiters

S$20 - S$30 for the entire room, paid during billing. Two waiters typically serve each room. The baseline is S$10 per waiter, with S$30 being the maximum standard. Tips are usually given 30 minutes before session completion.

Payment Method

All tips are usually given in cash. Paynow transfers or adding tips to the bill (incurring 17% tax) are alternatives, though not recommended.
