Frequently Asked Questions
How do you split a bill with tip?
Add your tip to the total bill, then divide by the number of people. Our calculator does this automatically.
Should everyone pay the same tip?
For simplicity, splitting the tip evenly is common. However, if someone ordered significantly more, they may want to tip proportionally.
How do you split tax and tip by what each person ordered?
Each person pays the same share of the tax and tip as their share of the food. If you ordered $30 of a $100 subtotal, you pay 30% of the tax and 30% of the tip. The itemized split does this for you and makes the shares add up to the bill exactly.
