About this calculator
The Tip Calculator works out how much to tip on a bill, the total amount to pay, and how to split that total evenly between a group.
How is a tip calculated?
The tip amount is the bill total multiplied by the tip percentage: Tip = Bill × Tip % ÷ 100. The total to pay is the bill plus the tip, and when splitting between people, that total is simply divided by the number of people in the group.
What's a typical tip percentage?
Tipping norms vary a lot by country and by service type. In the United States, 15–20% is a common range for restaurant service, while in many other countries tipping is smaller, optional, or already included in the bill as a service charge. It's worth checking local customs, since over- or under-tipping can both feel out of place depending on where you are.
