We built what we believe are the best free tip calculator and bill splitter available. If you just want to use them, here you go — Tip Calculator and Bill Splitter. No sign-up, no ads, works on any device. If you want to know why we think they’re the best, keep reading.
The Tip Calculator
Most tip calculators do the basics fine. You enter a bill, pick a percentage, get a number. The problem is usually everything around it — ads, clutter, a result buried at the bottom of a page you have to scroll through at the table.
Ours does one thing: stays out of the way. Enter the bill amount, pick your tip — there are preset buttons for 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%, or type in whatever you want — and the result appears instantly. Splitting between two or three people? There’s a preset for that too, or type any number. The tip per person updates live as you go.
The result is shown clearly: what each person tips, the tip for the whole table, and the total bill with tip included. That’s it. No scrolling, no waiting, no ads between you and the number you need.
The Bill Splitter
The tip calculator tells you how much to tip — and how to split that tip if you’re going halves with someone. The bill splitter is built for the harder situation: what does each person actually owe.
If everyone’s splitting the same bill equally — enter the total, choose how many people, pick a tip, done. Each person’s share appears immediately.
But here’s where most bill splitters fall short: not everyone orders the same amount. Someone got the steak and two drinks. Someone else got a salad and water. Splitting evenly in that situation isn’t fair, and everyone at the table knows it.
Our bill splitter has an uneven split mode. You enter what each person ordered individually — you can even name each person to keep track — and anything left over (shared appetizers, a bottle of wine, items nobody claimed) gets divided evenly among everyone. The tip is split evenly across everyone. Every person sees exactly what they owe.
It’s not a feature most people know to look for until they need it. Then it’s the only thing that matters.
How It Compares
There are solid free options out there. They work, and they get a lot of traffic for good reason. Here’s an honest look at each:
Embedded inside a long editorial article with financial product recommendations and advertiser disclosures. Useful content, but not what you came for when you’re mid-meal trying to split a check.
Clean and functional with a sidebar ad and a tipping reference section below the tool. Gets the job done without much friction.
Polished and modern, with a two-column layout and a few ad zones built into the design. More editorial in feel — well done, but heavier than it needs to be for a quick calculation.
No ads, no article. Bill amount, tip percentage, number of people — answer instantly. And the uneven split mode handles what every other free tool avoids.
They all get the job done. We just think getting the job done should feel faster and simpler than that.
Is It Actually the Best?
“Best” is subjective — we know that. The math is the math, and every calculator gets the same answer.
But if the question is which one gets you in and out the fastest with zero friction? No ads, no article to scroll past, no account — just your bill, your tip, and your answer? We think that’s ours. And the uneven split mode in the bill splitter is something most free tools don’t offer at all.
Why We Build These for Free
We hope this helps you in some way. As we grow, we want to keep giving back — there are countless people who build things and put them out into the world for free, and we benefit from that more than most. This is our way of doing the same. No subscriptions, no logins, no catch.
