Overview

Tip Calculator: split the bill and calculate gratuity in seconds

This tip calculator lets you work out how much to leave as a gratuity and how to divide the total among your group — instantly, with no sign-up and no data sent anywhere. Enter the bill amount, choose a tip percentage using one of the quick-select presets (10%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 25%) or type your own, and set the number of people splitting the tab. The tip amount, total bill, tip per person, and total per person all update live as you change any input.

Whether you are at a restaurant, a hotel, a salon, or a food-delivery order, the calculation is the same: bill × tip% = tip, and (bill + tip) ÷ people = total per person. The visual bar shows how much of the final total is the base bill versus the gratuity, making it easy to see the real cost of tipping generously. Everything runs client-side in your browser — nothing is stored or transmitted.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tip calculator free?

Yes — it is completely free, requires no sign-up or account, and every calculation runs locally in your browser. There are no ads or paywalls.

How much should I tip at a restaurant?

In the United States, 15–20% is standard for sit-down restaurant service; 18–20% is common for good service and 25%+ for exceptional service. At a bar, $1–2 per drink or 15–20% of the tab is typical. Tipping customs vary significantly by country — in many parts of Europe, Asia, and elsewhere, tipping is optional or done differently.

Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?

Either is acceptable, but tipping on the pre-tax subtotal is the traditional approach in the US. The difference is usually small — on a $60 bill with 8% tax, tipping 20% on pre-tax ($60) versus post-tax ($64.80) is a difference of less than a dollar.

Can I use this for delivery, salons, or other services?

Absolutely. The calculator works for any tipped service — food delivery (10–20% is common), hair salons (15–20%), taxi or rideshare (10–20%), hotel housekeeping ($2–5 per night), and more. Just enter the relevant bill amount and your preferred tip percentage.
