🧾 Split Bill Calculator

Conventionally, tips are calculated on the pre-tax subtotal. However, the difference is small and many people simply tip on the total for convenience. This calculator uses the pre-tax amount for tip calculation by default.

Use Item Mode to add individual dishes, set prices, and assign them to specific people. The calculator will work out each person's individual total including their proportional share of tip and tax.

If everyone ordered roughly the same value, even splitting is simplest. For significant differences in order value, item mode is fairer. Some groups split food evenly but pay for their own drinks, or use a rotating system where one person covers the entire bill each time.

In item mode, assign non-alcoholic items normally. For alcohol, assign drinks specifically to the people who ordered them. This is especially useful when some people don't drink and should not share the bar tab.

Beyond this calculator, Splitwise and Venmo have in-built bill splitting features. Many restaurant apps and Apple Pay Cash also support bill splitting directly at the point of payment.
