Tip Percentage Calculator — How Much Should I Tip?
Dining out or taking a ride? Quickly calculate the exact tip amount and total bill for 15%, 18%, 20%, and 25% tipping.
How It Works
Standard US restaurant tip is 18–20% of the pre-tax bill. Good service: 20%. Average: 15%. Exceptional: 25%+.
For a $50 bill, a 20% tip is $10 making your total $60. For a $100 bill, 20% = $20 tip = $120 total.
Delivery tips: 15–20% or $3–5 minimum (whichever is higher). Rideshare: 15–20%. Bartender: $1–2 per drink or 20% of tab.
Splitting with friends? Tip on the full bill amount first, then divide total (bill + tip) by the number of people.
