Frequently Asked Questions

Convention varies. In the US, most people tip on the pre-tax amount, though tipping on the total (post-tax) is becoming more common. This calculator uses the total bill amount you enter.

This calculator splits equally. For uneven splits (e.g., different items per person), calculate the percentage for each person's portion separately. Enter each person's sub-total as the "Bill Amount."
