Complete guide
The Tip Calculator takes the bill amount, tip percentage, and number of people to split between, then shows the tip amount, total bill, and per-person figures instantly.
Common tipping rates are 15% for satisfactory service, 18–20% for good service, and 20–25% for excellent service. The party split field divides both tip and total evenly across the number of people.
