FAQ

How much tip should I leave at a restaurant?

In North America, restaurants typically suggest 15%-20% tips. Excellent service warrants 20%+, average service 15%, and poor service can be reduced accordingly.

Should tip be calculated on pre-tax or post-tax amount?

It's generally recommended to calculate tips on the pre-tax amount. However, many restaurant bills show the post-tax total, and calculating on that is also perfectly acceptable.

Which countries require tipping?

Tipping is common in the US, Canada, and similar countries (15%-20% at restaurants). Japan, China, and some other countries don't require tipping as service charges are typically included.

How do I split tips for group dining?

You can use our tip calculator — enter the total bill, tip percentage, and number of diners to automatically calculate each person's share (including tip).

Should I tip for food delivery?

In the US, food delivery typically warrants 10%-15% tips, especially in bad weather conditions.
