Tip Calculator

This tip calculator helps you quickly calculate a tip, total bill, and split amount. It is useful for restaurants, bars, deliveries, taxis, salons, and other services where tipping is common.

You can choose a preset tip percentage or enter a custom percentage. The calculator updates instantly and shows the total amount owed and how much each person pays when the bill is shared.

The rounding option lets you keep the exact total, round the whole bill, or round each person's share for easier payment.

Use it when you want to avoid mental arithmetic at the table, split a bill fairly, check a delivery tip, or compare different tip percentages before paying. It is also useful when a group has agreed to round each person's share.

Travellers can use it as a quick planning tool, but tipping customs vary widely by country and service type. In some places a service charge is already included, while in others tipping is expected separately.

Check whether tax, delivery fees, cover charges, or service charges are included in the amount you entered. Some people tip on the pre-tax subtotal, while others tip on the final receipt total.

If you are splitting with friends, agree whether everyone pays equally or whether people who ordered more should contribute more. The calculator gives the arithmetic, but the fairest split depends on the situation.

If several people paid different parts of the night out, use the group expense settlement calculator to work out who owes whom after all payments are included.

Tip math fails when the base amount is unclear — pre-tax subtotal versus receipt total, or a bill that already includes service charge. Enter the amount you intend to tip on, not whichever number happens to be largest on the receipt.

Choose a preset percentage or a custom rate, then add the number of people if you are splitting. The headline outputs are tip amount, total bill, and per-person share when the group pays equally.

Use rounding when cash or card limits make exact pennies awkward: round the whole bill, or round each person's share, depending on what the group agreed before paying.

A 20% tip on £50 is £10, making the total £60. At 18% the tip is £9 and the total is £59 — a small percentage change can matter when several meals add up across a trip.

Run 15%, 18%, and 20% side by side before the card is handed over. The useful output is often the gap between two polite options, not a single percentage copied without context.

If service was exceptional or the party was large, a higher percentage may be appropriate; if a service charge is already printed on the bill, tipping again on the full total may double-pay.

Tipping norms vary by country, venue, and service type. In some places gratuity is included; in others it is expected separately on delivery or rideshare trips.

Agree with your group whether everyone pays equally or whether people who ordered more should contribute more. This calculator handles equal splits; uneven splits need a different tool or manual adjustment.

Treat the result as a fast planning check. For business expenses or formal reimbursement, keep the receipt and note whether tax or service charge was included in the base you used.

This page should target tip calculator, gratuity calculator, split bill calculator, and restaurant tip calculator searches.

It calculates tip amount, total, and equal per-person split from the entered bill and tip rate. It does not decide local tipping etiquette, uneven ordering splits, service-charge law, or reimbursement rules.
