I tip if the service is good, and not at all if it is crappy. You need the motivation. When I worked in customer service I was always nice to my customers, and especially nice to those who tip on a regular basis. It works both ways. Usually I tip around 10% but sometimes more. It has never been something that is done here, it's only in the last 5 years or so that is fairly common. While I was in Brisbane there was a really lovely bar that we were visiting every second day, and we were tipping a lot. A few times we weren't charged for items also(on purpose.. not a mistake we didnt bring up). It balances out.
The breakfast place we love of late, is always a tip of $5 or more, and the meal is usually around $30 between us.

and I NEVER tip on card, always cash.
