About this calculator
Tip and Bill Splitter does one thing: it divides a restaurant bill fairly. Enter the bill, choose the tip percentage with the slider or the quick buttons, enter the number of people, and you get the tip, the total, each person's share and the tip each person pays.
It is the fastest of the tip tools for a group dinner. There is nothing to configure beyond the three inputs, and the answer is large and clear so that you can read it across the table.
How to use it
- Enter the Bill Amount.
- Choose a Tip % with the buttons or the slider.
- Enter the Number of People.
- Press Calculate for the totals.
Calculation
Tip = Bill × Tip %. Total = Bill + Tip. Per person = Total ÷ People. Tip per person = Tip ÷ People.
Worked example
Bill 100, tip 18%, two people
| Tip | 18.00 |
| Total bill | 118.00 |
| Per person | 59.00 |
| Tip per person | 9.00 |
Tips and common mistakes

- For uneven orders, split by what each person ordered instead of evenly.
- Check your bill for a service charge before adding a tip.
- Use cash for small amounts so no one has to chase a transfer.
- If you are the one organising, collect the money before leaving.
