Splitting a Bill the Fair Way

The basic split is easy: divide the total by the number of people. Where it gets fiddly is tip and tax. The cleanest approach is to add the tip to the total first, then divide, so everyone shares the gratuity proportionally. For a $120 bill with an 18% tip, the total is $141.60; split four ways that's $35.40 each.

Even vs Itemised Splits

An even split works when everyone ordered roughly the same. If one person had a steak and another a salad, an itemised split is fairer — each pays for their own items plus a proportional share of tax and tip. For a quick, even split with tip included, the calculator above does it in one step.

Tipping Quick Reference

Customs vary, but in the US 15–20% is typical for table service. To calculate just the gratuity, use the tip calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I split a bill unequally?

Use the custom split feature. Enter each person's share of the bill separately, then calculate the tip on each portion. Or calculate the tip on the total and divide proportionally.

What is the standard tip percentage?

In the US: 15% is considered acceptable minimum, 18% is average, 20% is standard good service, 25% is excellent. For international norms: the UK 10-12.5%, continental Europe 5-10%, Japan tipping not customary.

Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?

Etiquette varies — either is acceptable. Many people tip on the pre-tax subtotal, which is the amount for the actual food and service.
