Enter the bill amount, tip percentage, and number of people; the tip, total, and per-person share update as you type.
Change any field at any time and every total recalculates immediately - there is no separate "calculate" button to press.
A blank or negative bill amount or tip percent is treated as zero, and the number of people is never allowed to drop below one, so the per-person total never divides by zero.
Tip Calculator
Split a restaurant or service bill and work out the tip amount per person.
Use it to settle a group bill quickly without doing the math by hand.
The tip amount, the bill-plus-tip total, and the equal per-person share are shown together, so you do not have to work out the split separately.
Does not provide financial advice - results are general estimates and do not account for tax being calculated separately from the tip, or for splitting the tip unevenly across people.
The calculation runs locally in the browser - no upload and no account.
Compared with a desktop app or an upload-based service
Three common ways to work out a tip are a browser-based calculator like this one, a desktop application, or an upload-based online service. They differ in where your numbers go and what you have to install first.
