Tip estimate note

Tip customs, taxes, service charges, and rounding rules vary by place and venue. Use this as a quick bill-splitting estimate.

Quick answer

A tip calculator multiplies the bill by the tip percentage, then adds that amount to the bill.

For example, a 20% tip on $50 is $10, making the total $60 before any split.

Best inputs for bill splitting

Pick the base amount

Use the subtotal or after-tax total depending on the tipping custom you follow.

Use the actual party size

Set the number of people paying, not necessarily the number of people at the table.

Tip formula
Tip amount is based on the bill amount and selected percentage.

Example

A 20% tip on an $86.40 bill is $17.28 before splitting.

Assumption

The bill amount you enter is the amount you want to tip on.

Limitation

Local tipping customs, service charges, and taxes can vary.
