Professional Cuddlers set their own rates. Tips are never expected but always appreciated.
Professional cuddlers are self-employed professionals who set their own rates. They pay a 15% commission - which is startlingly low - to the site.
Outside the US, tips are generally unneccessary and may be considered weird. Here in the UK some cuddlers would be genuinely offended by the suggestion of a tip, and many more would not accept one. A better use for the money, if you wish to contribute more, is to find a professional who operates a system for subsidising the cost of cuddles for those who cannot afford them.
In the US, tips may be acceptable but are most certainly not expected. But yes, it is debated as the thread linked above demonstrates. There have been other threads, this comes up from time to time.
Large tips are suspect because they could be construed as attempting to circumvent the site's fee.
