Guide to Using the Tip Calculator & Tipping Culture
What is a Tip Calculator?
A tip calculator is an online tool that helps you quickly and easily calculate the gratuity you should pay after using services like restaurants, cafes, or taxis. By entering the total bill amount and your desired tip percentage, it tells you the total amount you need to pay. It's also convenient for calculating the amount per person (splitting the bill) when dining with multiple people.
How to Use It
1. Enter the amount from your receipt in the 'Bill Amount' field.
2. Select a standard tip percentage or enter a custom one.
3. Enter the 'Number of People' to split the bill with (keep it at 1 if you are alone).
4. The results update automatically, showing the tip, total, and per-person share.
A Brief Note on Tipping Culture
Tipping culture varies greatly by country and place. For example, in the United States, it is customary to tip 15-20% of the service charge. On the other hand, in some countries like Japan or South Korea, tipping is not common. When traveling abroad, it's a good idea to research the local tipping culture beforehand. Our tip calculator helps you calculate the appropriate tip in any situation.
