Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard tip percentage?
20% is the current standard for good service at a sit-down restaurant in the US. 15% is acceptable for average service; 25%+ for exceptional. For delivery, hair salons, and taxis, 15–20% is typical.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette guides suggest tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, but most people tip on the full bill. The difference is small — on a $100 bill with 10% tax, it's only $2 either way.
How do I split a bill evenly between friends?
Enter the full bill amount, select your tip percentage, then use the stepper to set the number of people paying. The calculator shows exactly what each person owes, tip included.
Do I need to tip at fast food or counter service?
Tipping at counter service is optional and not generally expected. If you'd like to leave something, 10% or rounding up to the nearest dollar is plenty.
