A fast, fair tip calculator for any occasion.
A tip calculator takes the mental math out of dining out, ordering delivery, or splitting a round of drinks. Enter the bill, choose a tip percentage, and instantly see the tip amount, the grand total, and what each person owes. No more arguing over the cents or fumbling with a phone calculator at the table — everything updates the moment you type, and you can share the result with friends.
Tipping norms vary by service, so the calculator includes quick presets. Tap Restaurant for the customary 18%, Delivery for 15%, Bar for 20%, or Hotel and Salon for their typical ranges — then nudge the percentage up or down to reflect the service you received. There's also a custom field for any percentage you like, so the tool works just as well outside the US where tipping customs differ.
Split the bill — evenly or not
Set the number of people and the calculator divides both the tip and the total evenly, so each person knows exactly what to contribute. When the split isn't even — maybe one person ordered the expensive entrée or is treating the table — switch on the uneven-split option and assign extra shares to the "big spender." The calculator recomputes everyone's amount so the math stays fair without any back-and-forth.
The round-up option neatens the final number to the nearest dollar, five, or ten, which is perfect for leaving a tidy cash total or making a quick even split. Because the whole tool runs in your browser, there's nothing to install and nothing to upload — it's free, private, and works offline once the page has loaded. Bookmark it for your next meal out and you'll never second-guess a tip again.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much should I tip at a restaurant?
In the United States, the standard restaurant tip is 15% to 20% of the pre-tax bill for sit-down service, with 18% a common default and 20%+ for excellent service. For counter service or coffee shops, 10% to 15% (or rounding up) is typical. This calculator lets you tap a preset or enter any custom percentage, then splits the total between any number of people so everyone pays their fair share.
Is the tip calculated before or after tax?
Tipping etiquette in the US generally bases the tip on the pre-tax subtotal, though many people simply tip on the total for convenience — the difference is usually small. This calculator applies your chosen tip percentage to the bill amount you enter, so if you want to tip strictly on the pre-tax amount, enter the subtotal; if you'd rather tip on the grand total, enter that figure instead.
How do I split a bill between people?
Enter the total bill, choose a tip percentage, and set the number of people sharing the cost. The calculator divides the tip and the grand total evenly so each person knows exactly what to pay. If one person should pay more — say they ordered more or are treating others — turn on the uneven split option and set how many shares the 'big spender' covers, and it recalculates each person's amount.
How much should I tip for delivery, bars and salons?
Common US guidelines are: food delivery 15% to 18% (with a small minimum for short trips), bartenders about 20% or $1–$2 per drink, hotel valet and bellhops $2–$5, and hair salons or spas 15% to 20%. Use the preset buttons in the calculator to jump to a sensible default for each service type, then adjust the percentage to match your experience and local norms.
What does the round-up option do?
The round-up option rounds your grand total up to the nearest dollar, $5 or $10, which is handy for leaving a tidy cash total or splitting evenly without awkward cents. The tip is adjusted so the rounded total still covers the bill — effectively a small extra tip. Choose 'No rounding' to keep the exact calculated amount, or pick a rounding step to neaten the final number.
