tip(v.3)
“give a small present of money to,” was originally “to give, hand, pass,” used in thieves’ cant around 1600, and may have come from tip (v.3) “to tap.” The meaning “give a gratuity to” was first recorded in 1706. The noun with the same meaning first appeared in 1755. The noun “tip” meaning “a piece of confidential information” is from 1845, and the verb meaning “to give private information to” is from 1883.
The tale of the word's supposed origin as an acronym in 18th-century English taverns became popular in mid-18th century, but seems to be no older than Frederick W. Hackwood's 1909 book, "Inns, Ales and Drinking Customs of Old England." The book claims it stands for To insure promptitude (the anecdote is told from 1946 in the form to insure promptness ). A review of the book in The Athenaeum of Oct. 2, 1909, criticized this story and wrote, "We deprecate the careless repetition of popular etymologies such as the notion that 'tip' originated from an abbreviated inscription on a box placed on the sideboard in old coaching-inns, the full meaning of which was 'To Insure Promptitude.'” For more information, see here.
