How to use Tip Calculator

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.

What tip percentage should I leave?

15% is the baseline for acceptable service. 18–20% is standard for good service. 20–25% or more rewards exceptional servers.

Does the tip apply before or after tax?

Tipping on the pre-tax subtotal is technically correct, but many people tip on the full bill amount including tax. Both are socially acceptable.

How does the split work?

The calculator divides both the tip and total by the party size. Each person pays an equal share.
