Tip Calculator
Calculate the tip and split the bill — enter the bill amount, a tip percentage and the number of people to see the tip, the total and what each person owes.
How to calculate a tip
A tip is just a percentage of the bill: multiply the bill by the tip rate as a decimal. A 20% tip on a $50 bill is $10, for a $60 total. The calculator above also splits the total — and the tip — across your party, so everyone pays a fair share.
How much to tip
In the US, 15–20% is the usual range for sit-down service, with 18–20% common when service is good. Delivery, personal care and other services each have their own customs. Pick the situation below for the typical range and a ready-set percentage:

Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate a tip?
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage as a decimal. For a 20% tip on a $50 bill, that is 50 × 0.20 = $10, for a $60 total. The calculator does this instantly and can also split the total across your party.
How much should I tip?
In the US, 15–20% is standard for sit-down restaurant service, with 18–20% common for good service. Counter service, delivery and personal services have their own norms — pick the percentage that fits and the calculator handles the math.
How do I split the bill with tip?
Add the tip to the bill, then divide by the number of people. The calculator’s “split between” field does this for you and shows both the total per person and each person’s share of the tip.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Either is acceptable; many people tip on the pre-tax subtotal, while others tip on the full total for simplicity. The difference is small. Enter whichever amount you prefer as the bill above.
