Tip Calculator

Enter the bill and the tip percentage you want to leave — the tip amount and the total to pay appear instantly.

—

The result shows the tip amount and the total to pay, so the total is the bill plus the tip.

Formula

Tip = bill x tip % / 100. Total = bill + tip.

How it works

Tipping customs vary by country and service type, but 10–20% is common in restaurants in many places where tipping is expected.

If the bill already includes a service charge, check before adding a tip on top — you may already have paid it.

Worked example

For example, a $50 bill at 15% gives a tip of $7.50 and a total to pay of $57.50.
