Tip Calculator
Split a bill, add a tip percentage and get the exact amount each person owes.
Tip Calculator and Bill Splitter
Tipping conventions vary enormously: 15–20% is expected in the United States, 10% is generous in much of Europe, and tipping is actively unwelcome in Japan. Whatever the norm where you are, the arithmetic at the end of a meal is the same — and doing it on a phone after a bottle of wine is where mistakes happen.
Enter the bill, pick a tip percentage and the number of people, and the tool shows the tip, the total and the amount each person owes. The round-up option produces a clean whole number per person, which is easier to hand over and settle.

Frequently asked questions
How much should I tip?
In the United States, 15–20% is standard for table service and 20% is the common default in cities. In the UK and much of Europe, 10–12.5% is normal and often already added as a service charge. In Japan and South Korea, tipping is not customary and can cause confusion.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette guides generally say pre-tax, but many people tip on the total for simplicity. On a typical bill the difference is small — a few percent of the tip itself.
What if a service charge is already on the bill?
An added service charge is the tip. Tipping again on top is optional and usually unnecessary; check the bill carefully, as automatic charges are common for larger groups.
How do I split unevenly?
This tool splits evenly. For an uneven split, calculate each person’s share of the bill separately, then apply the same tip percentage to each share.
