Work Out the Tip and Split the Bill Instantly
Doing percentage maths at the end of a meal — often in dim light, sometimes after a drink — is exactly the kind of small task a calculator should handle. Enter your bill, choose a tip percentage, and this tool instantly shows the tip, the new total, and what each person owes if you are splitting it. Quick-select buttons cover the common 10%, 15%, 18%, 20%, and 25% rates, or you can drag the slider to any figure you like.
It goes further than a basic tip calculator in a few useful ways. You can tip on the pre-tax subtotal rather than the full total, which is what most etiquette guides actually recommend. You can round the final total up to a clean whole number for easy cash payment, with the difference absorbed into the tip. And you can split the bill between any number of people, seeing both the total and the tip each person is covering.
How Much to Tip Around the World
Tipping norms vary enormously, and getting it wrong in either direction can be awkward. In the United States, tipping is deeply embedded because service staff often rely on it as a core part of their income; 15–20% is standard for table service, with 20% typical for good service. In the United Kingdom and much of Europe, a service charge is frequently already included on the bill, and where it is not, roughly 10% or simply rounding up is common. In Japan, South Korea, and some other countries, tipping is not the custom and can even be seen as impolite.
Because of that variation, this calculator does not assume a country for you — it simply does the arithmetic accurately in your own currency, which it detects automatically and which you can change at any time. The right percentage is a judgement call about where you are and the service you received; the maths is the easy part, and that is what this tool takes care of.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends entirely on where you are. In the United States, 15–20% is the common range for table service, with 20% widely considered standard for good service. In much of Europe, service is often included and a small round-up is enough. In Japan and several other countries, tipping is not customary at all and can even cause offence. Always check local norms.
Etiquette guides commonly suggest tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, since the tax is not part of the service. In practice many people simply tip on the total, which is slightly more generous. This calculator lets you choose: enter your tax rate and switch on "tip on pre-tax amount" to base the tip on the subtotal.
Enter the number of people and the calculator divides the total — including the tip — evenly between them, showing exactly what each person owes. If people ordered very differently, a common approach is to split the tip and tax proportionally rather than evenly, but an even split is the simplest and most common way to settle a shared bill.
Rounding adjusts the final total to a whole number, which makes cash payments and mental math easier. The difference is absorbed into the tip, so rounding up slightly increases what you leave. It is a convenient way to land on a clean figure without recalculating the percentage.
