How it is calculated
Standard mode:
With tax toggle on:
Split:
Round up: tip is increased so the total reaches the next whole unit. Nearest 1: total is rounded to the closest whole unit and tip is recalculated.
tip = bill × (pct / 100), total = bill + tip.With tax toggle on:
subtotal = bill / (1 + tax/100), tip = subtotal × (pct / 100), total = bill + tip.Split:
per person = total / people.Round up: tip is increased so the total reaches the next whole unit. Nearest 1: total is rounded to the closest whole unit and tip is recalculated.
Frequently asked
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax total?
Both are acceptable in the US and it usually makes only a small difference. Etiquette purists tip on the pre-tax subtotal; most diners just tip on whatever number is printed on the bill. Use the "Bill already includes tax" toggle above if you want the tip calculated on the subtotal only.
How do I split a bill unevenly when people ordered different things?
Add each person's subtotal separately, apply the same tip percentage to each, then sum their individual totals. This calculator splits evenly — for uneven splits, compute each person's share of the bill, multiply by (1 + tip/100), and add everyone's tax share proportionally.
What is a "service charge" and do I still tip on top?
A service charge is a mandatory gratuity already added to the bill (common in the UK, Italy and group dinners). If it is 10% or more, no additional tip is required. You may round up or add a small extra for exceptional service, but you are not obligated to double-tip.
How much should I tip for takeout, delivery, or a barista?
Takeout: 0–10% is typical, 10%+ for large orders. Delivery: 10–15% of the order, with a $3–5 minimum. Baristas and counter service: rounding up or $1–2 is customary in the US. Bartenders: $1–2 per drink or 15–20% of the tab.
Is tipping expected when I travel abroad?
It varies widely. Japan and China expect no tip (and it can be considered rude). France, Italy and much of the EU include service in the bill — a small round-up is plenty. North America is the outlier at 15–20%. See the country guide above before you travel.
Why does the "Round up" option change my effective percentage?
Rounding adds a few cents or dollars to the tip so the total lands on a clean figure (e.g. exactly $70 instead of $69.43). The effective percentage shown reflects the actual tip you are paying after rounding, which is usually a fraction of a percent higher than your chosen rate.
Tipping norms vary by region, venue and year — use this tool as a guide, not a rule.

Tipping norms vary by region, venue and year — use this tool as a guide, not a rule.
Work out the tip amount, the final total and the per-person share for any restaurant bill. Pick a tip percentage from the 10, 15, 18, 20 or 25 percent presets or type any custom rate, set how many people are splitting, and choose a currency from USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, JPY, INR or a generic option for anywhere else.
If your bill already includes tax, flip the toggle and enter the tax rate — the calculator backs out the pre-tax subtotal and tips only on that. A rounding switch lets you round the total up to the next whole unit or to the nearest whole, with the effective percentage updated automatically.
Example: a 60 dollar bill with an 18 percent tip split between 3 people comes to 70.80 total, 10.80 tip, 23.60 per person. A built-in country guide shows local tipping norms for the US, UK, France, Japan, Italy and more, so you know what is expected when travelling abroad.
