Work out the tip, the total bill and the amount per person when splitting, instantly and privately in your browser.
This tip calculator makes splitting a restaurant bill simple. Enter the bill amount, the tip percentage and how many people are sharing, and it works out the tip, the total bill and exactly how much each person owes. Tap a quick percentage button for common tips like 15%, 18% or 20%, or type your own. Everything is calculated instantly in your browser, so none of your figures are sent anywhere.
The tip is the bill amount multiplied by the tip percentage divided by 100. The total is the bill plus the tip, and the per-person amount is the total divided by the number of people. It is perfect for restaurants, cafes, bars, taxis and food delivery.

Type the subtotal shown on your receipt — before any tip is added. In most cases this is the pre-tax amount, but if you prefer to tip on the full amount including tax, just enter the post-tax total. Both approaches are valid; restaurant etiquette varies.
Tap one of the quick preset buttons for common amounts — 10%, 15%, 18%, 20%, or 25% — or type a custom percentage if you want to leave something different. The quick buttons fill the tip field instantly. Use 15% as a baseline for adequate service, 18–20% for good service, and 25% if the service was exceptional.
Enter how many people are splitting the bill. Leave it at 1 if you are paying solo. The result shows the tip amount, total bill, and each person's equal share. If the group wants to split unevenly based on what each person ordered, use this to find the total and then divide manually.

The bill is $80 for 4 people and you want to leave 20%. That is a $16 tip, $96 total, and $24 each. Tap 20%, enter 4 — done in seconds so the table can settle up without anyone doing mental math.
Not sure what is expected in a new country? Use 10% as a starting point in countries where tipping is optional (UK, Australia), and 18–20% in the US where servers rely on tips as a core part of their wages. The calculator shows the cash amount so you know exactly what to leave.
A $22 round of drinks — leave a $2 tip? Enter $22, type 9, and confirm it comes to $1.98 (about 9%). Or just tap 10% for $2.20. For small bills, seeing the actual dollar amount avoids over- or under-tipping relative to the order size.
Birthday dinner, 12 people, $340 bill. Tap 20%: $68 tip, $408 total, $34 each. Collecting $34 per head from 12 people is clean and avoids the uncomfortable "how much do we owe" conversation at the end of a long night.
For delivery apps that ask for a tip at checkout, enter the order total and your intended percentage to confirm the dollar amount before committing. For taxis, use the same approach to avoid rounding errors when paying cash.
Hairdressers, hotel staff, tour guides, and spa therapists all receive tips in many cultures. If you are unsure of the expected amount, 10–15% of the service price is a broadly safe starting point — the calculator makes it quick to confirm the figure without making it obvious you are doing the math.
It depends heavily on the country and context. In the US, 18–20% is the standard for restaurant service; 15% is considered adequate and anything above 20% is generous. In the UK and Australia, tipping is appreciated but not mandatory — 10–12% is common at sit-down restaurants. In Japan and some other Asian countries, tipping is not customary and can even be considered rude. When in doubt, use 10% as a safe, inoffensive minimum.
Tip = bill × (tip % ÷ 100). For an 18% tip on an $80 bill: $80 × 0.18 = $14.40, giving a total of $94.40. For 4 people, that is $23.60 each. The calculator runs this instantly so you do not have to do it at the table.
Tipping customs vary. In the US, many servers prefer you tip on the pre-tax amount (the subtotal), but tipping on the post-tax total is also common and not wrong. The difference is usually small — on a $100 pre-tax bill with 10% tax, tipping 20% on $100 vs $110 is a difference of just $2. Enter whichever total you prefer.
The full total — bill plus tip — is divided equally by the number of people. The calculator also shows the tip per person separately, so each person can see their individual share of the gratuity. If people ordered very different amounts and want to pay only for what they had, use the total-per-person figure as a starting reference and adjust manually.
Run the calculation twice: once at 15% and once at 20%. Show the group both per-person amounts — the difference is often just a dollar or two, which usually makes the decision easy. Starting with the higher amount tends to get agreement faster than haggling down from 20%.
