    No, they don't get put through payroll at all.

    Credit card tips have to be paid via the payroll.

    Companies get charge credit card charges so find it odd they don't deduct a % off the tips before you get it

    You declare all this to the HMRC?

    Let's just ban tipping. As in resevoir dogs, why tip a restaurant but not Mcdonald workers...they do the same job!

    Nobody tips in New Zealand. It's just not expected.

    Well, if anyone offers a tip just say "We're not allowed to keep tips".
