Frequently asked questions
What is a standard tip?
In the US, 15-20% is customary at restaurants; 10% for basic service, 20%+ for excellent service. Customs differ by country — some places include a service charge instead.
Do I tip on tax?
Custom says tip on the pre-tax amount, but the difference is small and many people simply tip on the total.
How do I split unevenly?
Calculate the total here, then adjust individual shares in your payment app — this tool covers the equal split most groups use.
