🧐 FAQ
- How much should I tip?
- In the U.S., 18–20% is standard for sit-down service. In Europe, a 5–10% tip or a flat "service charge" is often sufficient.
- Does rounding up short the server?
- No. Our tool always rounds up, meaning the server receives a slightly higher tip than the calculated percentage.
- Do I tip on the total or the subtotal?
- Traditionally, you tip on the pre-tax subtotal. However, many people tip on the final total for convenience.
📚 Trivia
Legend says "TIP" is an acronym for "To Insure Promptness," originating in 18th-century English coffeehouses where customers dropped coins in a box for faster service. While historians debate the acronym’s validity, the practice remains a global cornerstone of hospitality. Use our calculator to stay fair to your budget and your server.
