Tip Calculator
Calculate the tip and total for a bill at a preset or custom percentage, and split it evenly between any number of people.
About the Tip Calculator
Enter the bill amount, tap a tip percentage (10, 15, 18, 20 or 25%) or type your own in the Custom % box, and the tip and total appear straight away. Use the + and − buttons under Split Between to share the bill: the calculator then shows each person's share of the total and of the tip.
The maths is simple. The tip is the bill multiplied by the percentage and divided by 100, and each person pays the total divided by the number of people. For example, a bill of 2,400 with a 10% tip gives a tip of 240 and a total of 2,640; split four ways, that is 660 each, of which 60 is tip. Amounts are shown to two decimal places without a currency symbol, so it works the same for rupees, dollars, euros or any other currency.
Tipping customs vary by country and by venue, and some bills already include a service charge, so check the bill before adding a tip on top. The calculator tips on exactly the amount you enter, so decide first whether you want to tip on the amount before or after tax. To compare a bill in another currency, the Currency Converter can help, and the Percentage Calculator handles other percentage sums.

Limitations
- Per-person amounts are rounded to two decimals, so they may not add up exactly to the total (100 split three ways shows 33.33 each).
- Splits are always even; it can't handle different shares for different people.
- It doesn't add tax or separate it from the bill. It tips on whatever amount you enter.
- There is no rounding up to a whole number and no currency conversion.
Privacy
The bill amount and settings stay in your browser; nothing is sent to FlexyPdf's servers.
Frequently asked questions
Should I tip on the amount before or after tax?
Customs differ, and either is common. Enter whichever amount you want to tip on. If you enter the pre-tax amount, remember that the Total shown won't include the tax, so add it to get what you actually pay.
How do I split a bill unevenly?
The calculator only splits evenly. For uneven shares, run it once per person with their part of the bill and the same tip percentage.
Why don't the per-person amounts add up to the total?
Each share is rounded to two decimal places. A total of 100 split three ways is 33.333… each, shown as 33.33, so the three shares add up to 99.99. Round one share up by hand to cover the difference.
What if the bill already includes a service charge?
Then a tip is often optional. Type 0 in Custom % to see an even split with no tip, or a small percentage if you want to add something extra.
