Frequently asked questions
How much should I tip?
Customs vary by country. In the US, 15–20% is typical at sit-down restaurants; in the UK around 10–12.5% (check if service is already included); in many other countries tips are small or not expected. This calculator works with any percentage.
Should I tip on the amount before or after tax?
Traditionally tips are calculated on the pre-tax amount, though many people tip on the total for simplicity. Enter whichever amount you prefer as the bill.
How does rounding up work?
"Round up the total" rounds the whole bill including tip to the next whole number. "Round up each person's share" makes everyone pay a whole amount, which is handy when paying in cash. The tip increases slightly to cover the difference.
Is anything I enter saved?
No. All calculations happen in your browser and nothing is stored or sent to a server.
Split the bill without the mental maths
At the end of a meal nobody wants to do percentages on a napkin. Enter the bill, choose a tip and the number of people, and the tip calculator shows the tip, the total and exactly what each person owes.
The formula
Tip = bill × tip% ÷ 100. Total = bill + tip. Each person pays total ÷ number of people. For a 84.50 bill with an 18% tip split between 3 people: tip = 15.21, total = 99.71, each pays 33.24.
Rounding up
Paying in cash or want a tidy number? Round up the total to the next whole amount, or round up each person's share so everyone pays an even amount. The small difference goes to the tip, and the effective tip percentage is shown.
