What is Tip Calculator?
A tip calculator quickly works out how much to tip and what the total comes to, then splits that total evenly among your group. Enter the bill, choose a tip percentage and the number of people, and it instantly shows the tip amount, the grand total and each person's share.
It ends the awkward mental maths at the end of a meal and makes sure everyone pays their fair part.

FAQ about Tip Calculator
What tip percentage should I use?
It varies by country and service, but 15–20% is common for restaurant service in many places. Enter whatever percentage suits your situation.
How is the per-person amount worked out?
It adds the tip to the bill, then divides the total by the number of people so everyone pays an equal share.
Can it split between any number of people?
Yes. Enter any group size of one or more and it divides the total evenly among them.
Is the tip based on the pre-tax bill?
It calculates the tip on the amount you enter. If you prefer to tip on the pre-tax total, enter that figure as the bill.
