How to Use This Calculator

  1. Type the bill amount.
  2. Tap a preset percentage or set a custom one.
  3. Enter the party size; the per-person row updates live.
  4. Toggle pre-tax / post-tax base and round-up if you want clean cash amounts.

What Is a Tip Calculator?

Tip = bill × (tipPercent ÷ 100). Total = bill + tip. Per-person = total ÷ party. The arithmetic is trivial; remembering it after two cocktails is not. Standard US tipping is 15–20% on the pre-tax bill, with 22% increasingly common for parties of six or more. Outside the US conventions vary — many countries include service automatically, others tip a flat amount or not at all.

This tool ships quick presets (15 / 18 / 20 / 22%) plus a custom field, splits the total by party size, and offers a "round up per person" toggle for diners who want clean cash amounts. Pre-tax vs post-tax tipping is configurable so the tip is calculated on the right base.

For everyday dining only — confirm the bill base (food vs food + tax) matches local convention before tipping on hefty totals.
