What Is a Tip (Gratuity)?
A tip, or gratuity, is an extra amount of money paid to service workers as a token of appreciation for good service. It’s a social and cultural practice that varies widely around the world.
In countries like Japan or South Korea, tipping is uncommon and can even be seen as disrespectful.
In places like the United States or Canada, tipping is expected and forms a major part of workers’ income.
In Europe, tips are often included in the bill or rounded up casually.
Understanding these differences ensures you show gratitude appropriately without offending local customs.

Yes! Use the Shared Bill Calculator option. Just enter the total bill, choose your tip percentage, and select the number of people. The calculator will show the tip per person and total per person instantly.
If your bill says “service charge included” or “gratuity included,” that means the tip has already been added. You can still leave an extra tip if the service was exceptional, but it’s not required.
Absolutely! This calculator is mobile-friendly, meaning it works perfectly on any device — phone, tablet, or desktop — without downloading any apps.
In countries like the U.S., not tipping (or tipping too little) can be seen as disrespectful because many service workers rely on tips as part of their wages. However, in some Asian or European countries, not tipping is perfectly acceptable.
To quickly estimate a 20% tip:
Take 10% of your bill, then double it.
Example: For a $50 bill → 10% is $5 → doubled = $10 tip.
The calculator provides real-time and accurate results based on the bill amount and percentage you enter. It’s designed for quick, practical use — perfect for both locals and travelers.
