Which tip percentages are shown?

The table covers 10%, 12.5%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22% and 25% — the percentages most often used in restaurants and for service.

How accurate are the totals?

Tips are calculated as bill × percentage and totals as bill + tip, rounded to two decimal places. The per-person figure divides the total evenly, so rounding may leave a fraction of a unit between people.

Is my bill amount private?

Yes. Everything is calculated locally in your browser and the amounts are never sent to a server or stored anywhere.

What is a standard tip percentage?

In US restaurants 15–20% is customary, with 18% a common default for good service and 20%+ for excellent service. Norms vary widely by country and service type.

Can I split the total between people?

Yes. Enter the number of people and each row gains a per-person column dividing that row's total evenly across the group.

Does it tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?

It tips on the bill amount you enter. Some people tip on the pre-tax subtotal and others on the total — enter whichever figure matches your preference.

Why compare percentages side by side?

Seeing 15%, 18% and 20% together makes it easy to choose a tip and round to a comfortable total without doing the maths for each option yourself.

Tip percentage table

This table lets you enter a bill amount once and compare the tip and final total across every common tip percentage side by side. It is a fast reference for deciding how much to leave and for rounding to a comfortable total, with an optional even split between diners.

Why a table beats a single calculator for this

When you are deciding how much to tip, the question is rarely “what is exactly 18% of $73.40?” — it is “should I leave 15% or 18%, and what is the difference?” Seeing all the options at once makes that comparison instant. You can also scan for a total that rounds to a convenient figure, which is especially useful when splitting cash.

How it works

For each percentage in a fixed set — 10%, 12.5%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22% and 25% — the tool applies straightforward arithmetic and, if you enter a headcount, a per-person split:

tip        = bill × percentage / 100
total      = bill + tip
per person = total ÷ number of people

All figures are rounded to two decimals. Because the per-person value divides the total evenly, rounding can leave a fraction of a unit between people.

Example table for a $73 bill

Tip %	Tip	Total	Each (÷4 people)
10%	$7.30	$80.30	$20.08
15%	$10.95	$83.95	$20.99
18%	$13.14	$86.14	$21.54
20%	$14.60	$87.60	$21.90
25%	$18.25	$91.25	$22.81

Here 20% is attractive because $87.60 is a round-ish number and the per-person split of $21.90 is easy to settle. At 18% the per-person figure is $21.54, which leaves awkward change.

What tip percentage is appropriate?

The table covers the range from frugal to generous:

10% is the minimum at full-service restaurants in most English-speaking countries. Common in the UK and Australia.
12.5% is the UK restaurant norm for good service, and is sometimes pre-added as a service charge.
15% is the traditional US baseline for adequate service.
18% is the current US standard for good service; many card readers default to this.
20% is common for excellent US service and is also a very easy mental calculation (double the pre-tax subtotal, move the decimal).
22–25% signals exceptional service or a personal relationship with the staff.

Splitting with the per-person column

Enter the number of people at your table and each row gains a “per person” column. This is the total for that tip percentage divided evenly by your headcount — useful for confirming everyone knows what they owe before the bill arrives. The tool runs entirely in your browser; your bill amount is never transmitted anywhere.
