About the Tip Calculator

This free tip calculator works out the tip and the final total in a couple of taps. Enter the bill, choose a tip percentage from the quick presets — 10%, 15%, 18%, 20% or 25% — or type your own, and the gratuity and grand total update instantly. Need to split the bill? Set the number of people and it divides everything evenly, showing exactly what each person owes and how much of that is tip.

You can pick your currency and round the total or each person's share up or down to a clean number, which is handy when paying in cash. Everything runs entirely in your browser, so it is instant, works offline once loaded, and the amounts you enter are never uploaded — perfect for quickly settling a restaurant bill, café tab or taxi fare without any guesswork.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions we hear most about this tool.

How do I calculate a tip?

Enter the bill amount, pick a tip percentage (or type your own), and the calculator instantly shows the tip and the new total. To work it out by hand, multiply the bill by the tip rate — for example a 20% tip on a $50 bill is 50 × 0.20 = $10, making the total $60. This tool does the maths for you and can also split everything between several people.

How much should I tip?

In the United States, 15–20% is the usual range for restaurant table service, with 18–20% considered standard for good service and 25% generous. Other countries tip far less or not at all, since service may already be included — so use the preset buttons as a quick guide and adjust to your local custom and the quality of service. Tipping norms vary widely, so the right amount is ultimately up to you.

How do I split the bill between several people?

Set "Split between" to the number of people and the calculator divides the total — bill plus tip — evenly, showing the amount each person pays and how much of that is tip. Use the round option if you want each share (or the overall total) rounded up to a clean number, which is handy when everyone is paying in cash.

Should the tip be calculated before or after tax?

Customarily the tip is based on the pre-tax bill, but many people simply tip on the total including tax for convenience — the difference is usually small. This calculator applies your chosen percentage to whatever bill amount you enter, so for a strictly pre-tax tip, type the amount before tax; to tip on the full amount, enter the post-tax total.

Is this tip calculator free and private?

Completely. There is no sign-up, no limits and no cost, and every calculation runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript — nothing is sent to or stored on any server. It even keeps working offline once the page has loaded, and the amounts you enter never leave your device.
