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

Technically, tipping is meant for the service provided on the food/drinks themselves, so calculating the tip on the pre-tax amount is the standard etiquette. However, many people simply tip on the final post-tax total for convenience.

What is a standard tip percentage?

In many Western countries, 15% to 20% is standard for decent service at a sit-down restaurant, with 20%+ for exceptional service. For takeout or delivery, 10% to 15% is common.

How do I split the bill fairly?

If everyone ordered roughly the same amount, splitting the total evenly is easiest. If one person ordered significantly more (like expensive drinks), it's more considerate to calculate individual totals before splitting.

How to Calculate a Tip

A tip calculator helps you quickly determine the exact tip amount to leave based on a percentage of the total bill. It also helps you split the total bill effortlessly among a group of people.

How it Works

Tip Amount Formula

Tip = Bill Amount × (Tip Percentage / 100)

Multiply your initial bill by the tip percentage divided by 100 to get the exact tip you should leave.

Per Person Calculation

Total Per Person = (Bill + Tip) / Number of People

To find out how much each person owes, add the bill and tip together, then divide by the total number of people sharing the check.
