Tip Calculator

Calculate tip (gratuity), total bill, and per-person split in seconds. Avoid awkward math at the table with a free tip calculator for restaurants, delivery, bars, salons, and rideshare.

Tip Calculator and Bill Splitter

Enter the amount you want to tip on, pick a tip percentage, and split the bill per person. If gratuity is included, set the tip to 0% or enter only the extra you want to add.

Tip is calculated from the amount you enter. Use the subtotal if you prefer to tip before tax, or enter the total if that is how you tip.

Common tips are 15% to 20% for good service. Adjust for delivery, salons, or exceptional service.

The split is equal for everyone. If each person paid a different amount, run separate calculations.

You control the bill amount and tip percentage. Include service charges in the bill amount if you want them counted.

Avoid Awkward Tipping Moments

The hardest part of tipping is rarely the math. It is the moment: the server waiting with the card reader, the group trying to agree on a number, or the delivery driver at the door while you are still deciding what feels fair. This tip calculator removes the guesswork so you can decide quickly and tip with confidence.

Whether you are splitting a dinner with friends, ordering a late-night delivery, or paying for a haircut, you can use the same simple steps. Enter the amount you want to tip on, choose a percentage, and see the tip, total, and per-person split. No awkward pauses. No mental math.

Group Dinner, One Check

The server drops the bill and everyone reaches for their phone. Use the tip calculator to choose a percentage, see the gratuity and total, then split the bill per person. You can share the per-person total and settle up in seconds, without debating tip math at the table.

Delivery at the Door

You are holding the door open with one hand and the receipt with the other. Enter the order amount, pick your tip percentage, and you have a fast, fair delivery tip. The calculation is quick and consistent, so you can focus on the handoff.

Salon or Personal Service

After a haircut, nails, or a spa appointment, you want to show appreciation without overthinking it. Use this tip calculator to base gratuity on the subtotal or total, adjust the percentage for the service, and move on with confidence.

Check for Included Gratuity

Large parties sometimes include a service charge or gratuity on the receipt. If it is already included, set the tip percentage to 0% or enter only the extra amount you want to add. This keeps your tip intentional and avoids double tipping by accident.

Quick Etiquette Checklist

  • Use the subtotal if you prefer tipping before tax, or the total if that matches your habit.
  • For delivery or salon services, the same math applies; choose the percentage that feels fair.
  • When a service charge appears, treat it as gratuity and tip extra only if you want to.
  • For travel, look up local norms and adjust your percentage to match the culture.
  • For large groups, confirm whether gratuity is included before adding more.

How to Use the Tip Calculator

Enter the subtotal or total you want to tip on. If you prefer to tip before tax, use the subtotal; if you tip on the full amount, enter the total.

2

Select a Tip Percentage

Choose a preset tip or enter a custom percentage based on service quality. Set 0% if gratuity is already included, or add a smaller extra tip if you want.

3

Split the Bill

Enter the number of people to see the per-person total and tip. The split is equal for everyone, which is perfect for quick, no-drama group payments.

The result section shows the tip amount, total bill with tip, tip per person, and total per person. You can calculate as many times as you need until the numbers feel right, then pay with confidence.

Tip Calculator Formula

Want the math? Our tip calculator uses a simple formula to calculate gratuity and totals.

  • Tip = Bill x (Tip % / 100)
  • Total bill with tip = Bill + Tip
  • Tip per person = Tip / Number of people
  • Total per person = Total bill with tip / Number of people

These are the standard gratuity formulas used by restaurants and payment apps. We show values to two decimal places so you can see the exact numbers, then round up or down if you prefer. If your bill already includes a service charge, simply set the tip percentage to 0% or enter only the extra tip you want to add.

Tip Calculator FAQ

Do I tip before or after tax?

Many people tip on the pre-tax subtotal, but tipping on the total is also common. This tip calculator works for either approach because you control the bill amount. Enter the subtotal if that is your preference, or enter the total if you usually tip on the full amount.

Is gratuity already included in the bill?

For large parties, a service charge or gratuity may be included. Check your receipt for a line item labeled service charge, gratuity, or auto-gratuity. If it is included, set the tip to 0% or add only the extra amount you want to give.

What is a typical tip percentage?

In many US restaurants, 15% to 20% is common for good service, but norms vary by country and city. Adjust up for exceptional service or special requests, and always follow local customs if you are traveling.

Should I tip on discounts or coupons?

Some people tip on the original price to recognize the full service, while others tip on the amount they actually paid. There is no single rule. Enter the amount that matches your intent and the tip calculator will do the rest.

How do I split the bill evenly?

Enter the number of people and the calculator will divide the tip and total amount equally for each person. This is the fastest way to settle a shared check without a long back-and-forth.

What if everyone ordered different items?

This tip calculator splits the bill evenly. If you need an uneven split, calculate the tip on each person's subtotal separately, or run the calculator multiple times using different bill amounts.

Can I use this for delivery or rideshare?

Yes. The same formula applies to delivery, rideshare, and personal services. Enter the amount you want to tip on and choose the percentage that feels fair for the service.
