That’s actually not true, and a common misconception. When you choose to pay more to support a charity, including rounding up, you can actually claim that on your taxes. It shows as a donation on your receipt. (Though probably no one bothers because you’d have to itemize your tax return and include all the receipts).

Businesses do it because it makes them look good, not because they get a tax break for it.
