Tip Calculator

How much to tip — and who deserves it

What is this? The standard tip in the US is 15-20% before tax. But rules vary wildly: Europe rounds up, Japan tips nothing, Australia rarely tips, and the UK expects 10-15%. This calculator handles all scenarios.

Who gets tipped: Bartenders (15-20%), food delivery ($3-5), hotel bellman ($1-2/bag), rideshare (not required but appreciated), hair stylists (15-20%), tour guides ($5-10/day).

Who doesn't: Doctors, government workers, fast food employees. The IRS requires restaurants to allocate at least 8% of server tips for tip pooling.
