One bar worker said their tips had roughly halved and been delayed since their employer introduced the tipping app, which takes a commission on some transactions. Union leaders say the company's practices may be unlawful, something it denies. Hayden Vernon reports.
Can they legally take that as a write off? It's a donation from the person to the charity, McDonald's is just holding it.
They obviously still get the PR and free advertising from it, but I I seriously doubt they get a tax write off from it
I think there's a popular misconception that companies can use these types of POS donations as their own write-off in an above-board manner.
Of course, it would not at all be surprising if companies had tried or succeeded at doing it, but I have not seen any hard evidence that it happens.
Ah ok. I guess they just hated us then lol
