How is the tip calculated?

Tip = bill × tip percentage ÷ 100. For a $60 bill with an 18% tip, that's $60 × 0.18 = $10.80, making the total $70.80. When splitting, both the tip and the total are divided evenly by the number of people.

How much should I tip at a restaurant?

In the US, 15–20% of the pre-tax bill is standard for table service, with 18–20% common for good service. For counter service or takeout, 0–10% is typical. Customs vary widely by country — in Japan tipping is not expected at all, while in much of Europe 5–10% or rounding up is normal.

Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?

Etiquette guides generally say the pre-tax amount is fine, since tax isn't part of the service. In practice many people just tip on the total for simplicity. Enter whichever amount you prefer — the calculator works the same way.

Can I split the bill unevenly?

This calculator splits evenly among the number of people you enter. For uneven splits, a quick approach is to run the calculation separately for each person's items, or use our Percentage Calculator to work out custom shares.

Completely. The calculator runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript. The bill amount, tip, and party size are never sent to a server, logged, or stored anywhere.
