How do I calculate a tip?

Multiply the bill amount by the tip percentage (e.g. $50 × 0.20 = $10 tip). Add the tip to the bill for the total.

What is a standard tip percentage?

In the US, 15–20% is standard for restaurants. 10% is common for takeout and 20–25% for exceptional service.

Add the tip to the total bill, then divide by the number of people. This calculator does that automatically.

Calculate tip and split the bill in seconds.

What tip percentage should I leave?: 15% is the baseline for decent service, 18–20% for good service, and 25%+ for exceptional service in the US.
Do I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?: Traditionally on the pre-tax amount, but most people tip on the full bill for simplicity.
