Frequently Asked Questions
What's a standard tip?
US: 18โ22% for good service, 15% for acceptable. UK/Europe: 10โ15%, often already included as 'service charge'. Japan/China: no tipping (sometimes considered rude). Always check.
Should I tip on tax?
Strictly, no โ tip is for service, tax is government revenue. Practically, tipping on the post-tax total is easier mentally and only adds a small amount.
How do I split unevenly?
Tool defaults to equal split. For uneven splits (someone ordered more), calculate each person's subtotal first, apply a uniform tip %, then add tax proportionally.
What's the 'double the tax' trick in the US?
In many US states, sales tax is ~8โ10%. Doubling it gives a 16โ20% tip โ a convenient mental shortcut for a decent tip amount.
