Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a tip?
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100. For a 50 bill at 18%, the tip is 50 × 18 ÷ 100 = 9, making the total 59. This tool does it instantly.
How much should I tip?
In the United States, 15–20% is customary for good table service. Norms vary by country and service type, so use the preset buttons or slider to match local custom.
How does splitting the bill work?
Enter the number of people and the calculator divides both the tip and the grand total evenly, showing the amount each person owes.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette guides suggest tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, but many people tip on the total for simplicity. Enter whichever bill figure you prefer to tip on.
Can I set a custom tip percentage?
Yes. Use the slider for any value from 0% to 40%, or tap one of the common presets like 15%, 18% or 20%.
Is the calculator private?
Yes. All the math runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded, so your bill amounts stay on your device.
