Tip Calculator — How to Use It

This free tip calculator takes the guesswork out of tipping at restaurants, for delivery, or any service. Enter the bill total, pick a tip percentage using the quick buttons or enter a custom amount, then enter how many people are splitting the bill. You'll instantly see the tip amount, full total, and exactly what each person owes.

How much should you tip?

In the United States, 18–20% is the current standard for restaurant service. For exceptional service, 25% or more shows real appreciation. For takeout and counter service, 10–15% is common. For delivery, 15–20% is standard — more in bad weather or for large orders.

How to split the bill evenly

Enter the number of people in the group and the calculator automatically divides the total — including tip — equally. For groups where people ordered very different amounts, consider using an itemized bill-splitting approach.
