Tip Calculator
Tip, total, and the split per person.
Tip Calculator works out the tip and the total from a bill amount and a percentage, then divides it between any number of people — including rounding up to a whole amount per person so nobody has to find small change. It works offline, which is convenient in a restaurant with no signal.

Questions about Tip Calculator
Tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Convention in the US is on the pre-tax subtotal, though many people tip on the total for simplicity. The tool offers both and shows the difference, which on a large bill is not trivial.
Can people pay unequal shares?
Not directly — the split is even, dividing the total by the number of people, with an option to round each share up to a whole amount. For uneven shares, total each person's own items and run the tip on that subtotal separately.
Does it work without internet?
Yes — install it as an app and it works offline, which is the state most restaurant basements put your phone in.
Which currency does it use?
None in particular. It works on plain numbers rounded to two decimal places, so the result reads correctly whatever is on the receipt. There is no exchange-rate conversion — enter the bill in the currency you are paying in.
Is a tip expected everywhere?
No, and the tool takes no view on it. Service is included by law or convention across much of Europe and in Japan, where an added tip can be unusual. A rate that is normal in the US would be out of place elsewhere, so set whatever fits where you are.
Is Tip Calculator really free, with no limits?
Yes. There is no account, no daily cap, no file-size tier and no watermark, because there is no server cost to recover. The site is funded by clearly disclosed partner recommendations on the Partners page, never by metering the tools.
Are my files or text uploaded when I use Tip Calculator?
No. Everything is processed by JavaScript running in your browser, on your device. You can verify it: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and use the tool. You will see no request carrying your data — because there is nowhere for it to go.
