Tip calculator with tax and split
Enter the pre-tax restaurant bill, local sales tax, tip percentage, and party size. Choose whether the tip should be based on the subtotal or the after-tax amount.
Equal or custom bill shares
An equal split divides the final total evenly. Custom shares use relative weights, so a person with weight 2 pays twice the amount of a person with weight 1.
Round the restaurant total
Rounding can make payment easier. You can treat the difference as extra tip or keep the selected tip unchanged and round only the final amount.
Check local tipping customs
Tipping norms and service charges vary. Review the receipt for an included gratuity before adding another tip, especially for larger groups.
Frequently asked questions
Should I tip before or after tax?
Many diners calculate tips on the pre-tax subtotal, while others use the after-tax amount for convenience. This calculator supports both methods.
How do I split a bill when people ordered different amounts?
Choose custom shares and enter relative weights. For example, weights 20, 35, and 45 divide the final total in those proportions.
Does rounding increase the tip percentage?
It does when the round-up is assigned to the tip. The effective tip rate is shown so the difference is explicit.
What if gratuity is already included?
Set the tip to zero or only add the extra amount you intend to leave. Always check the restaurant receipt first.
