How Split Bill works
How to use it
- Enter the bill total.
- Pick or type a tip percentage.
- Enter how many people are splitting it.
How it is calculated
The tip is worked out as a percentage of the bill and added to it; the resulting total is then divided evenly by the number of people. So each person pays (bill + tip) ÷ people.
Tip guidance
In the US, 15–20% is typical for table service. Elsewhere customs differ — adjust the percentage to suit, or set it to 0% where a service charge is already included.
