Tip Calculator
The tip calculator calculates the tip amount for various percentages of the cost of the service and also provides a total amount that includes the tip. In the U.S., a tip of 5% to 50% of the before-tax meal price is typically expected.

Shared Bill Tip Calculator
The Shared Bill Tip Calculator considers the cost of the service, number of people, and chosen tip percentage to calculate the tip per person, as well as the total cost per person.
Tipping Customs Worldwide
A tip (or gratuity) is an optional payment to service workers beyond the service cost. Customs vary significantly:
- Countries where tipping is offensive: Japan, South Korea, and parts of China view tips as bribes or insults.
- Countries where tipping is expected: The U.S., Canada, and others factor tips into workers' wages (often below minimum wage).
- Middle-ground cultures: Some European nations round up bills or add small tips as courtesy, but it's not mandatory.
