Tip
People
0.00Tip
0.00Total with tip
0.00Each person pays

Amounts are worked out in whole cents, so the shares always add up to the total exactly. When a total does not divide evenly, a few people pay one cent more and the note says how many. Tipping customs differ a lot between countries; in some places service is already included in the bill.

How to use it

  1. Enter the bill amount.
  2. Pick a tip percentage or type your own.
  3. Enter how many people are paying, or switch to splitting by what each person had and enter each order.

Questions

Should I tip on the amount before or after tax?

Customs vary. In the United States many people tip on the amount before sales tax, but tipping on the full bill is common and simpler. Enter whichever amount you want the tip to be based on.

What does rounding up do?

It rounds each person's share up to the next whole amount, so nobody has to deal with coins. The extra goes to the tip, and the real tip percentage is shown underneath.

How does the uneven split work?

Each person pays for what they ordered plus the same percentage tip on it, so someone who had a bigger meal adds a bigger tip.

About this tool

About the tip calculator and bill splitter

At the end of a meal nobody wants to do arithmetic on a napkin. Enter the bill, pick a tip and say how many people are paying, and each person's share appears at once.

Two ways to split

  • Evenly: the bill plus tip divided by the number of people.
  • By what each person had: enter each order and everyone pays for their own food plus the same percentage tip on it, so a bigger meal carries a bigger tip.

Rounding up

Tick rounding up and each share goes up to the next whole amount, so nobody has to deal with coins. The extra goes to the tip, and the real tip percentage is shown underneath so you know what you actually left.
