Calculate a tip and split the bill evenly between any number of people.
A tip calculator figures out how much to leave for a server and, if you're dining with other people, how to split the total evenly. It removes the awkward table-edge math where a wrong percentage or a miscount of diners throws off the final number. Type in the pre-tip bill, pick a tip percentage from the common 10–25% range (or enter a custom rate), and say how many people are splitting the check. The tool returns the tip amount, the total, and a per-person share — including how much of that share is tip, which is useful if you want to tip separately from the bill. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
Use the subtotal before tip — that's what servers in the US expect you to tip on. Some diners prefer tipping on the post-tax total; enter whichever matches your habit.
Tap a preset (10, 15, 18, 20, 25%) or type a custom rate. 18–20% is standard for good sit-down service in the US; 10–15% is typical for quick counter service.
Set how many people are splitting the check. The minimum is 1 — if you're dining alone, leave it as the default.
The tool shows the tip amount, the grand total, the per-person share, and the tip portion of that share. Round up to the nearest dollar if you want a clean cash hand-off.
tip = bill × (tip_percent ÷ 100) total = bill + tip per_person = total ÷ people tip_per_p = tip ÷ people e.g. bill $60, 20% tip, 4 people: tip = 60 × 0.20 = $12.00 total = 60 + 12 = $72.00 per_person = 72 ÷ 4 = $18.00 tip_per_p = 12 ÷ 4 = $3.00
Tip is calculated on the bill amount you enter, not on the bill plus tax, so whether your 'bill' field should include tax is a choice. In the US most guides recommend tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, but many people just tip on the total they see on the card machine — the difference is small. The split is an even division; if you want to weight it by what each person ordered, use a split-by-item app instead.

| Bill, tip %, people | Per person (total) |
|---|---|
$60.00, 20%, 4 people | $18.00 ($72.00 total) Tip: $12.00 · Tip per person: $3.00. Standard dinner split at a US sit-down restaurant. |
$85.50, 18%, 2 people | $50.45 ($100.89 total) Tip: $15.39 · Tip per person: $7.69 (rounded). Round each share up to $51 for a clean cash hand-off. |
$24.00, 15%, 1 person | $27.60 ($27.60 total) Tip: $3.60. Typical quick-service or takeout scenario. |
