Method and limits
Enter the amount you want to tip on and the percentage. Include or exclude tax and service charges yourself; the calculator does not add them. Use one currency for the bill amount; the tool does not detect or add a currency symbol. For example, an 18% tip on 48.50 is 8.73, for a total of 57.23. The bill is rounded to cents first, then the tip is rounded to the nearest cent; amounts stay in the same currency as the bill.
The bill is rounded to cents first, then the tip is rounded to the nearest cent (a half cent rounds up). Taxes, service charges, currency conversion, and splitting the bill are not included.

Frequently asked questions
What amount should I enter?
Enter the amount you want the tip percentage applied to. If you want tax or service charges included in the tip base, include them in this amount yourself; the calculator does not add them.
How is the total calculated?
It multiplies the bill amount by the tip percentage, then adds that tip to the bill. All amounts remain in the same currency as the bill.
Does the calculator choose a currency?
No. It does not detect or add a currency symbol. Enter the bill and read the tip and total as amounts in the same currency.
