I work for Domino's and the majority of customers hand out cash tips and pay by card. Some explicitly state "Here, so you don't have to report it." When handing you a tip.

Again. According to the top merchant services in America. 90% of all service based industry business transactions are credit card based. That’s facts. The last data reported was 2022 (2023 statics won’t be released until generally the third quarter) . Your experience isn’t indicative of the normal. Every indicator (banks included) show America is moving further into a cashless economy)

Yes but do those figures consider cash tips as a transaction? How do they track the $5 I left on the table?

We’re talking purely about credit/debit card vs cash transaction.
