Tip Calculator

Calculate tips, split bills, and determine per-person costs with customizable options

Overview

The Tip Calculator makes dining out easier by quickly calculating appropriate tips, splitting bills among friends, and providing per-person breakdowns. Perfect for restaurants, bars, delivery services, and any service where tipping is customary.

Tips

1. Standard tipping guidelines: 15% for adequate service, 18% for good service, 20%+ for excellent service at full-service restaurants
2. Check for automatic gratuity: Review your bill carefully - many restaurants add 18-20% gratuity for parties of 6 or more
3. Tip on pre-discount amounts: When using coupons or discounts, calculate your tip based on the original bill amount, not the discounted total
4. Split bills fairly: For groups with similar orders, split evenly for simplicity; for widely different orders, split by item to be fair
5. Delivery and takeout: Tip 15-20% for delivery (more in bad weather), and 10% for takeout is appreciated but optional
