Tip Calculator
Calculate the tip, total bill and per-person share for any tip percentage.
Working out a tip is easy in theory and awkward in practice — especially at the end of a group dinner when the bill lands and everyone reaches for mental math at once. Percentages, taxes, and splitting across an odd number of people quickly turn a simple calculation into a table-wide negotiation.
This calculator takes the bill amount, your chosen tip percentage and the number of people, and instantly shows the tip, the grand total, and exactly what each person owes. Adjust the percentage up or down to see how the numbers change before anyone gets out a card.
