Reporting tips as an employee
Reporting cashless tips through PAYE scheme
If the business you work for has signed up to EasyTip’s “Employer reporting” option then your tips will be reported by your employer through the PAYE scheme and the necessary tax will be automatically deducted from your pay.
You can check this with your employer or see what tax reporting option your EasyTip account is set to by checking your profile page on the EasyTip cashless tipping app dashboard.
And that’s it! There’s nothing more for you to do.
Earned less than £2500 in tips?
If you are an employee and have earned less than £2500 in tips in a tax year (all tips not just via EasyTip tipping app) but the business you work for does not report your tips through your payslip, you will need to self-report these tips to HMRC.
Self-assessment tax return
Allows you to report a range of additional incomes and offset appropriate costs and deduction
Tax code update
With one quick call or simple letter per year it couldn’t be easier to inform HMRC to tips earned! Updating your tax code means income tax due on up to £2500 in tips earned in the previous tax year will be automatically deducted through your future payslips via PAYE with no hassle for you or your employer.
Personal tax return
Allows you to estimate taxes, check your records and quickly update details in the future.
