What is Tip Calculator?

The Tip Calculator helps you calculate tip amounts, total bill after tip, and how much each person pays when splitting a bill.

It’s perfect for restaurants, delivery, and any situation where you want a fast “tip + total + split” breakdown.

What it can calculate

  • Tip amount - calculates the tip from a bill and tip percent.
  • Total with tip - adds tip to the bill.
  • Split total - divides the total (bill + tip) by the number of people.

Notes & tips

  • Enter tip percent as a number (e.g., 10, 15, 20).
  • For split bills, the number of people must be greater than 0.
  • If you want to include tax before tipping, add tax first using the Sales Tax / VAT calculator, then tip the total.

FAQ

Do I calculate tip on the pre‑tax or after‑tax bill?

Both are common. Many people tip on the pre‑tax amount, while some prefer tipping on the final total.

If you want to tip after tax, use the Sales Tax / VAT calculator first, then tip the tax‑inclusive total.

Does this include a service charge or automatic gratuity?

No. If your receipt includes a service charge (e.g., 10% service), you can treat it as already included and tip only additional amount if you choose.

How does the “split between people” calculation work?

It calculates (bill + tip) ÷ people for an equal split.

If you need an uneven split (different meals), calculate the tip amount first, then distribute manually.

Why doesn’t the split total always add up perfectly?

Rounding. If you round each person to the nearest cent, the sum can be off by a cent or two. A common fix is to have one person pay the rounding remainder.

What tip percent should I use?

It depends on local custom, service quality, and venue type. Many people pick a baseline (like 10–20%) and adjust up or down.

Should I tip on a discounted/coupon bill?

Some people tip based on the pre‑discount total (especially for large coupons) to reflect the service value. Others tip on the amount actually paid. Either way is fine-choose what matches your intent.

Is tipping required?

Tipping rules vary by country and venue. This tool is just for the math-always follow local norms and any service charges already included.

Can I quickly reverse the math to find the tip percent?

Yes-use the Percentage Calculator: tip amount is what percent of the bill? That gives you the effective tip rate.
