Features

Everything you need for TRONC management

From rule-based distribution to full HMRC compliance — one platform does it all.

HMRC Compliant by Design

Built-in compliance rules ensure every distribution meets HMRC TRONC guidelines. No more guesswork, no more risk.

Significant NI Savings

Properly structured TRONC schemes are exempt from employer NI contributions — saving thousands per year.

Happier Employees

Transparent, fair tip distribution builds trust. Employees see exactly how their share is calculated.

Real-Time Analytics

Live dashboards showing distributions, trends, and compliance status across all your venues.

Automated Distributions

Set your rules once — hours-based, role-based, or equal split — and let the system handle the rest.

Multi-Venue Support

Manage TRONC across all your locations from one dashboard. Each venue can have its own distribution rules.

NI Savings

Save thousands in employer NI — every single year

When tips are distributed through a properly structured TRONC scheme with an independent Troncmaster, they're exempt from employer National Insurance contributions. That's a 13.8% saving on every pound distributed.

  • No employer NI on TRONC-distributed tips
  • Automated rule-based compliance ensures eligibility
  • Full audit trail for HMRC inspections
  • Typically saves £500–£2,000+ per employee per year
