Tip Calculator

Splitting a bill by hand often leads to rounding arguments, especially when a tip is involved. A tip calculator removes the guesswork by showing the tip, the total and the share per person in one place.

Enter the bill, pick a tip percent and enter the number of people, and this tool does the rest in your browser.

How to Use This Tool

1. Enter your bill amount: type the bill before tip.
2. Enter your tip percent: type a percent like 15 or 20.
3. Enter the number of people: type how many people are splitting the bill.
4. Click Calculate Tip: read the tip, the total, the cost per person and the tip per person.

Good Practice Tips

• Check if tip is already included: some bills already include a service charge, so check before adding another tip.
• Round fairly: if the per person amount has cents left over, agree who covers the small remainder.
• Split tax the same way: this tool splits the bill you enter, so enter the bill total you actually want to split.
