Calculate the tip and split the bill without the awkward math

Working out a tip and dividing a restaurant bill in your head is a classic source of dinner-table stress, especially after a good meal or when several people are chipping in. Our free tip calculator removes the friction entirely. Enter the bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and it instantly shows the tip in currency, the grand total, and — if you are sharing — how much each person owes. No more scribbling on napkins or reaching for a phone calculator app.

The tool is built for real-world dining. You can nudge the tip percentage to reflect the quality of service or local custom, and the split feature divides the total evenly among any number of people, showing both the total per person and each person's share of the tip. Because everything updates the moment you change a value, it is easy to settle on a round, convenient figure that everyone is happy to pay, whether in cash or by card.

Tipping norms vary enormously around the world, from generous percentages in some countries to no tipping at all in others, so the calculator leaves the choice of percentage in your hands rather than assuming a fixed rate. It runs entirely in your browser, works instantly once loaded even on a patchy restaurant connection, and never stores your figures. Simple, fast, and private, it takes the guesswork out of every shared meal.

Frequently asked questions

How much should I tip at a restaurant?

In many countries 15% to 20% of the pre-tax bill is standard for good table service, with 18% a common default. Tipping customs vary widely by country and service type, so adjust the percentage to fit local norms and the quality of service received.

How does the bill splitting feature work?

Enter the number of people sharing the bill and the calculator divides the grand total, including tip, evenly among them. It shows both the total per person and the tip portion each person contributes.

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

Traditionally tips are calculated on the pre-tax subtotal, though many people tip on the total for simplicity. This calculator applies the tip to the bill amount you enter, so enter the subtotal if you prefer to tip pre-tax.

Can I round the total for convenience?

Yes. The calculator displays precise figures, and you can adjust the tip percentage to nudge the grand total towards a round number that is easier to pay, which is a common practice when splitting cash payments.
