{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "TipAction",
  "agent": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Diner" },

  "price": 150,

Minimal valid version

The smallest markup that still produces a valid TipAction entity. Use it as the floor. Reach for the advanced example above when you want search engines and AI agents to understand more about your content.

schema.org/TipAction (minimal)

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "TipAction",
  "recipient": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Tip recipient" }
}
</script>

Google rich results this unlocks

TipAction is a structural type. It does not produce a rich result on its own.

Its value comes from combining it with a primary type whose markup earns a rich result (Article, Product, Event, and so on). TipAction becomes the trunk that the primary type branches off viamainEntityorbreadcrumb. Include it on every page as the backbone of your markup.

Common TipAction mistakes

Mistakes that pass validation but silently fail to earn rich results or mislead consumers walking the graph. Avoid these and your markup will be ahead of most sites in the wild.
