When it comes to visiting a strip club be prepared to tip. You have to tip everyone from the doorman to the waitress. Tips won’t just get you the best service but people remember good tippers. Being a good tipper can also earn you a spot in the VIP section

You need a little finesse to navigate the Melbourne strip scene. Learn when to do it, where to do it and how many times.

Know Where You Are

Strip clubs in Melbourne differ a great deal. You get your exclusive elite clubs that are more than titty bars and then you get the run-of-the-mill clubs. Dancers who work in these clubs are different and regular customers know what to expect. High-end clubs attract customers who keep more than $1 bills. When they make it rain, the minimum amount is $5. If you are would like to get a lap dance, you should tip $20 or more. This way, the stripper knows that you are serious.

Don’t wait to start tipping

Everyone who works in a strip club wants to serve the best tipper. Word goes around pretty quickly when there is a customer who is generous with his tips. If your tips are above $5 you may get one of the best seats close to the stage. You may also get the best girls offering lap dances to you.

Essentially, when you tip well right at the beginning you can be sure that the best things are easy to access.

When you get a girl to perform a lap dance, ask her how much it will actually cost you and find out what other special talents she has. You may find out that there are other ways for you to be entertained. When a stripper knows that you have money to back up special requests, she is likely to stay with you then try and find someone with deep pockets.

Remember that strippers do not earn a salary, they make their money from the tips that customers leave. They are most likely to stick to someone they can make the most money from.

Money opens doors and makes the impossible possible. It’s a universal rule. You may not like it but you get better treatment when you tip well. This is true, not only for strippers but for everyone working in a club.

A $1 is considered the standard tip and $5 to $ 20 is regarded as more than decent. If you happen to be in the VIP section of a strip club, try to do better than $1. It is considered to be insulting.

Learn the Physical Cues

Most clubs have “no touching” rules but some girls will allow customers to tuck their tips in their lingerie. Don’t assume this to always be the case. When in doubt about where to put your cash, just put it on the stage. Dancers will give you some sort of physical cues about what you should do with your money.   

Strip clubs are not brothels so do not ask for what you cannot have. Prostitution is illegal in Melbourne so don’t ask stripers if you can pay them for sex. It’s not only against the law but it is also incredibly rude for you to ask.

Tips are non -negotiable in strip clubs. When you tip more you get the sexiest girls coming to your table. Extra tipping gets you extra perks.
