Tipping expectations vary wildly. The US runs 18–22% at table service. UK and Australia are 10–12% if you tip at all. Japan, Singapore, and South Korea don't tip — leaving cash can be considered rude. India and Nepal are usually 5–10% if service charge isn't on the bill.
Customary in the US is to tip on the pre-tax subtotal, but many people just tip on the total. The difference is only ~1% of the bill at most state tax rates — pick whichever you find easier mentally and the server probably won't notice.
Even-split is fast and fair when everyone ate similarly. Split-by-share (each person pays their items + share of tip) is fairer when one person got the lobster and you got a salad. This calculator does even-split; for itemised splits, use a dedicated app.
In the US, 18–22% at full-service restaurants is standard, with 15% being the floor for adequate service and 25% reserved for exceptional service. The UK and Australia tip 10–12% if at all. Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and South Korea don't tip — and leaving money can be considered rude. Check local norms before assuming.
Conventionally on the pre-tax subtotal, but in practice many tip on the total because it's easier mental math. On a $100 bill at 8% sales tax, a 20% tip is $20 on pre-tax versus $21.60 on the total — a $1.60 difference. Pick whichever you prefer; servers won't usually distinguish.
If the menu or bill clearly states a service charge or 'service compris' is included, no additional tip is needed — though many diners still leave a small extra for exceptional service. In the US, when a 'mandatory gratuity' is added (common for groups of 6+), don't tip on top.
Add the tip to the subtotal, then divide by the number of people. This calculator does it for you — type the bill, choose a tip %, set the headcount, and the per-person total appears below. For items not shared equally, split each item then sum (manual or use a dedicated app like Splitwise).
Toggle the 'round up to nearest 1' option in the calculator. It rounds the total up to the next whole unit of the currency and adjusts the tip accordingly. Handy for cash payments or when you want a clean signature on a receipt.
ExpenseFlow's OCR pulls the merchant, amount, and category from a snapped photo — restaurants included. The tip just rides along.
