A tip calculator helps you calculate the appropriate gratuity amount for services like dining, taxi rides, or food delivery. Instead of mentally calculating percentages while your server waits, a tip calculator gives you instant, accurate results. Beyond basic calculation, it can split bills among friends and calculate per-person amounts.
The calculator multiplies the bill amount by the chosen tip percentage to get the tip amount, then adds it to the bill for the total. If multiple people are sharing, it divides both the tip and the total by the number of people to show per-person amounts. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.
Enter your bill amount in the dollar field. Select a tip percentage by clicking one of the preset buttons — 10%, 15%, 18%, 20%, or 25% — or enter a custom percentage in the Custom field. If you are dining with others, enter the number of people splitting the bill. The calculator instantly displays the tip amount, total bill including tip, and per-person breakdowns for both tip and total. Results update automatically as you change any value, making it easy to compare different tipping scenarios.
To calculate a tip, multiply the bill amount by the tip percentage. For example, a 15% tip on a $100 bill is $15. This calculator automates this calculation for you with preset percentages.
Tip percentages vary by region. In many countries, 15-20% is standard for good service at restaurants. Some restaurants include a service charge. Adjust the percentage based on your local customs and service quality.
Yes. Enter the number of people sharing the bill, and the calculator will show both the tip per person and the total per person. This makes splitting bills at restaurants or group outings easy.
In most regions, tipping is based on the pre-tax subtotal. However, some people calculate tips on the post-tax total. Enter whichever amount you prefer — the calculator works with either.
A quick mental hack: calculate 10% by moving the decimal point one place left, then add half of that amount. For a $50 bill: 10% = $5, half = $2.50, total tip = $7.50.

Tipping on the pre-tax amount is more common and means you only tip on the cost of food and drinks, not on sales tax. Some people prefer tipping on the post-tax total as a simpler approach. Either method is acceptable — this calculator works with both.
