Tip Calculator

Figure out a tip on any bill and split the total cleanly across a party.

What it means

About this calculator.

How much should I tip?

US norms: 18%–22% for sit-down restaurants, 15%–20% for delivery, $1–2 per drink at a bar (or 20% on the tab). Most other countries don't expect tipping the same way — when in doubt, look it up.

Tip on pre-tax or post-tax?

Servers don't really care; the difference is small. Strict etiquette says pre-tax. This calculator assumes you've entered the bill amount you actually want to tip on.

FAQ

Questions people usually have.

Does the per-person split include the tip?

Yes. "Per person" is each person's share of the bill plus tip. "Per person tip" is each share of just the tip if you want to split tip and bill separately.

Should I tip on alcohol?

Tip on the full bill in most cases. Some people tip a flat amount per drink at the bar; either is acceptable.
