How to use the Tip Calculator
- Enter the bill amount.
- Choose a tip percentage.
- Enter the number of people to see the per-person total.
How much to tip
In the United States and Canada, 15 to 20 percent is standard for table service, with 18 percent a comfortable middle. In much of Europe a service charge is often included and rounding up or 5 to 10 percent is appreciated rather than expected. In many Asian countries tipping is not customary at all. When a service charge already appears on the bill, an extra tip is optional.
Splitting the bill fairly
The calculator computes the tip, the total, and the per-person share in one step, which settles the usual group dinner debate instantly. A useful convention: calculate the tip on the pre-tax amount, which is the standard practice, though many people simply tip on the total for simplicity.
