How to settle a group bill
Add the tip, divide, then transfer the balance.
1
Enter the bill and tip
Use the pre-tip bill and the rate the group agreed.
2
Set the headcount
Count everyone who shared the bill, including the payer.
3
Collect the share
Each non-payer sends the per-person share to whoever fronted the money.
What does this tool do?
When one person puts a shared bill on their card, everyone else owes them their share. This calculator adds the tip, divides the total and shows how much each non-payer should transfer.
The Formula
Total with tip = bill × (1 + tip% ÷ 100); per-person share = total ÷ people; owed to each payer = share × non-payersFrequently Asked Questions
How do I split a bill when people ordered different things?
Total each person’s items plus their share of tax and tip, then compare with the equal share shown here. Adjust from that comparison rather than guessing.
Who should pay upfront?
One payer keeps the settlement simple. With several payers, each non-payer owes the same amount, which is what the owed-back row shows.
