Receipt context
A $150 bill can be a small group meal, an event payment, or several services combined on one receipt. The dollar difference between common percentages is larger here, so it helps to separate the selected tip from tax and business-added charges.
Split example
At 20% before tax, the $150 bill becomes $180.00 before tax. Five equal shares are $36.00 each. A custom split can be better when one person had a different order or the group is sharing only part of the bill.
Use the split bill calculatorBefore you pay
For group dining, check the subtotal, tax, automatic gratuity, service charge, and discount in that order. A charge listed on the receipt may already be part of the total. Keep it separate from any voluntary amount you decide to leave.
Next step
Use the custom or itemized split calculator when the group did not divide the meal evenly. It makes the allocation visible before you send payment requests.
