How Much Should You Tip
Tipping customs vary by country and type of service. In the United States tipping is expected at most service businesses. Here is a general guide to standard tip amounts.
For buffet or counter service restaurants a tip of around 10 percent is appropriate. For sit-down restaurants with table service 15 to 20 percent is the standard range. For excellent service 20 to 25 percent is common. For food delivery services 15 to 20 percent is typical. For hair salons, barbers and spas 20 percent is standard. For taxi and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft 15 to 20 percent is expected. For hotel housekeeping 2 to 5 dollars per night is common in the US. For bartenders 1 to 2 dollars per drink or 15 to 20 percent of the tab is typical.
Is Tipping Required in the US
In the United States tipping is not legally required but it is a strong social expectation in most service industries. Many service workers in the US earn below minimum wage and rely on tips to make up the majority of their income. Not tipping at a restaurant or other service business where tipping is customary is generally considered rude and can cause financial hardship for the worker.
Tipping in Other Countries
Tipping customs vary significantly around the world. In the United Kingdom tipping is appreciated but not as strictly expected as in the US. A tip of 10 to 12.5 percent is common at restaurants. In Europe tipping is generally optional and rounding up the bill is a common practice. In Australia tipping is not mandatory and many Australians do not tip regularly. In India tipping is common at restaurants and for service workers with 10 percent being a typical amount.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a 20 percent tip?
Multiply your bill by 0.20 to get the tip amount. For example a 50 dollar bill with a 20 percent tip equals 10 dollars tip and 60 dollars total. Use the calculator above to do this instantly.
How do I split a restaurant bill equally?
Enter the total bill amount, select your tip percentage and use the plus button to add the number of diners. The per person amount shown is what each person should pay including tip.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
In the United States most people tip on the pre-tax amount though either is acceptable. This calculator uses the bill amount you enter so enter your pre-tax total if you want to tip on pre-tax.
What is a good tip for food delivery?
For food delivery 15 to 20 percent of the order total is standard. For large orders or during bad weather consider tipping 20 percent or more as delivery drivers face additional challenges.
What is the round up feature?
The round up feature rounds your total bill including tip to the nearest whole dollar, pound or euro. This makes it easier to pay with cash or split the bill into clean amounts.
