Math

How do I split a tip among friends?

Enter the number of people in “Split between.” We divide total with tip and tip amount equally—uneven orders need a different approach.

Do I tip before or after tax?

Either approach is used in practice. Check “Tip on pretax subtotal” and enter tax if you want tip based on bill − tax.
