Tip Calculator

Multiply the bill total by 0.20 (20 ÷ 100). For example, a $50 bill × 0.20 = $10 tip, for a total of $60. This calculator does that instantly and also splits the total across any number of people.

Tipping etiquette varies, but most guides suggest tipping on the pre-tax subtotal since sales tax isn't part of the service being rewarded. That said, many people simply tip on the total printed on the receipt for convenience — either approach is common in practice.

Enter the total number of people in the "split between" field. This calculator divides both the tip and the total bill evenly, showing you the exact amount each person owes, including their share of the tip.

15% is generally considered the minimum for adequate service at a sit-down restaurant, 18-20% for good service, and 25%+ for exceptional service. Delivery drivers and bartenders are often tipped a flat amount or a smaller percentage depending on the order size.
