How to calculate a tip and split the bill
- Type the total on the bill.
- Tap a tip percentage or type your own.
- Set the number of people with − and +.
- Read what each person pays, the tip amount and the grand total. Tick Round each share up to make paying in cash easier.
In many places it is customary to tip on the amount before tax. Tick Tip on amount before tax and enter the tax shown on the receipt; the tip is then calculated on the bill minus tax.
How much should I tip?
Tipping customs vary a lot. In the United States, 15–20% is standard for table service, with 18–20% common in cities, and 10–15% for counter service. In Canada, 15–20% is usual. In the UK and Ireland, 10–12.5% is typical and many restaurants add a service charge to the bill, in which case no extra tip is expected. In much of continental Europe, service is included and people round up or leave 5–10%. In Japan, tipping is not customary and can cause confusion.
Check the receipt for a service charge or "gratuity included" line before adding a tip, especially for large groups, where restaurants often add one automatically.
Splitting fairly
An even split is quickest. If people ordered very differently, split the food first and apply the same tip percentage to each person's part. Everything here is calculated on your phone with no account and no data sent anywhere.
How do I calculate a 20% tip quickly?
Move the decimal point one place left to get 10%, then double it. On a 45.00 bill, 10% is 4.50, so 20% is 9.00.
Should I tip on tax?
Etiquette guides usually say tip on the pre-tax amount, but many people tip on the total for simplicity. The difference is small.
Does rounding up change the tip?
Yes, slightly. Rounding each share up adds a little to the tip; the extra amount is shown under the result.
