—About Tip Calculator
Tip Calculator works out the tax, tip and total for a bill and splits it between any number of people. You can tip on the amount before or after tax, pick a standard or custom percentage, and round the total up or to the nearest whole amount, with any leftover cents shared fairly.
Splitting a restaurant bill evenly rarely produces round numbers, and rounding by eye can leave someone paying more than their share. Exact cent-level arithmetic shows exactly what each person owes and what the rounding did to the tip.

- Add the tax percentage if your bill shows tax separately.
