➤ How do tipped wages and tip credits affect the federal minimum wage?
Under federal rules, tipped employees may receive a cash wage of $2.13 per hour if tips make up the difference to $7.25. Employers can claim a tip credit up to $5.12. If tips plus cash wage do not equal the federal minimum, the employer must cover the shortfall and maintain proper records.
