Bill Splitter
The Bill Splitter works out exactly what everyone owes.
100% in-browser · no data sent
Enter the bill, the number of people, and optionally a tip and tax percentage, and it shows the per-person share, the tip and tax amounts and the grand total. Rounding is handled honestly, so the leftover cents are assigned rather than quietly lost.

How to Use
Enter the bill total
Type the amount on the bill. If tax is already included in that figure, leave the tax percentage at zero.
Set the number of people
Choose how many people are sharing. Everyone pays an equal share of the final total.
Add tip and tax
Add a tip percentage and, if it is not already on the bill, a tax percentage. Both are calculated from the pre-tip subtotal.
Read the split
See the per-person amount plus a full breakdown of subtotal, tip, tax and total. Turn on rounding up if you would rather everyone pay a whole unit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the tip calculated before or after tax?
This tool calculates both the tip and the tax from the pre-tip subtotal, which is the most common convention. Tipping on the pre-tax amount is standard practice in most places; if you prefer to tip on the post-tax total, simply add the tax to the bill amount first and leave the tax percentage at zero.
What happens to the leftover cents?
When the total does not divide evenly, the split cannot be exact. The tool rounds each share down to the smallest currency unit and then tells you how many people need to pay one extra cent to make the totals match, so the sum of the shares always equals the bill.
Can people pay different amounts?
Yes — turn on uneven shares and give each person a weight. Someone with a weight of 2 pays twice as much as someone with a weight of 1, which is handy when a couple splits as one party or when one person had significantly more.
How much should I tip?
It varies enormously by country. In the United States 15–20% is customary for table service; in much of Europe service is often included and rounding up or 5–10% is plenty; in Japan tipping is not expected at all. Check local custom rather than assuming.
