Before you use it

Works well for

  • Restaurant bills split between friends
  • Tipping on the pre-tax amount
  • Rounding shares for cash payments

Not the right tool for

  • Splitting by what each person ordered
  • Local tipping rules — they vary by country

How much to tip

In US restaurants with table service, 15–20% of the pre-tax bill is customary, with 18–20% common in cities. Many people leave less for counter service. Customs vary a lot by country: in much of Europe a service charge is included or a small round-up is enough.

Tip before or after tax?

Etiquette guides generally recommend tipping on the pre-tax amount. Enter the subtotal as the bill and the tax separately: the tax is added to the total but not to the tip.

Splitting fairly

Tick "round up" to get a whole number per person — handy when paying in cash. The extra from rounding is shown so the group can decide what to do with it.

Frequently asked questions

What if a service charge is already on the bill?

Then the tip is already included. Check the receipt before adding more.

Can I split unevenly?

This tool splits equally. For uneven splits, run it once per person with their own items.

Does it work in other currencies?

Yes — pick any currency from the list.
