Tip Calculator

Tip calculator for tip amount and final total

This tip calculator helps you work out how much to tip and what your final total will be. Enter a bill amount and your chosen tip percentage to get a clear tip value and a clean total.

Use it for restaurants, delivery, salons, bars, and any situation where you want a quick tip calculation without mental maths. The calculator does not split the bill between people.

If you want to tip on a different base amount (for example, pre-tax), enter that value as the bill amount and the calculator will use it as the base.

Assumptions and how to use this calculator

• The bill amount is the value you want to base the tip on.
• The tip percentage applies directly to the bill amount you enter.
• Results are shown to two decimal places.
• No service charge, rounding rules, or extra fees are assumed.

Common questions

What tip percentage should I use?

Many people use 10 percent as a baseline and 12.5 to 15 percent for good service. Local norms vary, so adjust as needed.

Should I tip on the total including tax?

This tool tips on whatever number you enter. If you prefer tipping on the pre-tax amount, enter the pre-tax value instead.

Why is my final charge slightly different?

Some payment terminals round differently, and some venues add service charges. This calculator assumes no extra fees and rounds to two decimals.

Is a service charge the same as a tip?

No. A service charge is set by the venue. A tip is optional and chosen by you. If a service charge is already included, you may choose to tip less or not at all.
