About this tool

Tip Calculator works out the tip and the grand total for a restaurant or service bill, then splits both across any number of people. Enter the bill, drag the tip percentage slider (or tap a quick button), set the party size, and every number updates instantly.

Example: a $80.00 bill at 18% tip split between 4 people → tip $14.40, total $94.40, each person pays $23.60. Bump the tip to 20% for great service and each share becomes $24.00.

Turn on Round up each share to round what each diner owes up to the nearest whole unit (e.g. $23.60 → $24.00) — handy when no one wants coins on the table. The comparison table below the totals shows the grand total at nearby tip percentages so you can sanity-check your choice at a glance.

FAQ

How is the tip calculated?

Tip = bill × (tip % / 100). Total = bill + tip. Each person pays total ÷ number of people. The math is the standard pre-tax-on-bill convention used by most US restaurants; if your bill already includes tax, decide whether you want to tip on the pre-tax subtotal or the post-tax total and enter the number you want to tip on.

What does "Round up each share" do?

It rounds each person's share up to the nearest whole currency unit (e.g. $23.60 → $24.00) and recomputes the group total from those rounded shares. Use it when collecting cash so nobody needs to dig for coins — it usually produces a small extra tip for the server.

Does it work for other currencies?

Yes. Pick any of the listed currencies (or "—" for no symbol) and the formatting adapts. The numbers themselves are currency-neutral — you type the bill in whatever units your bill uses.

What is a good tip percentage?

Customary tipping varies by country and service. In the US 15–20% is typical for sit-down restaurant service; 18% is a common default. In many other countries service is included or tipping is not expected — adjust to local norms.
