💳 Tip Calculator
Tipping is part of dining out, but how much is appropriate? This calculator quickly works out how much to give based on your bill and the percentage you want — and if you're out with friends, it splits automatically among everyone.
Tip amount
£7.50
Total with tip
£57.50
Tip amount: £50.00 × 15% = £7.50
Total: £50.00 + £7.50 = £57.50
Formula
Tip = Bill × (Tip % ÷ 100). Total = Bill + Tip
Tip works as a percentage of your bill. 15% on EUR 50 means EUR 7.50 tip. The standard varies widely by country: 15% in USA/Canada, 10% in UK, 10% in Australia, 5-10% in Europe — but it also depends on service quality and restaurant type.
Steps
- 1Enter your bill amount.
- 2Enter the tip percentage (15% is standard, but you can adjust).
- 3Optional: enter the number of people if you want to split.
- 4Read off the tip amount, total, and (optionally) per person.
Standard tip percentages by country
| Country/Region | Tip % | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| USA/Canada | 15–20% | Expected, included in bill |
| UK/Australia | 10–15% | Optional, for good service |
| Continental Europe | 5–10% | Often already included |
| Japan | 0% | Not expected, can be offensive |
This varies widely by country and culture. Always check the local norm.
commonMistakes
- Tip on tip: calculating 18% on total with service (instead of just the food amount).
- Not adjusting tip for poor service — you always have the right to give less.
- Forgetting tip is already included in some countries — double-check before paying.
