Frequently asked questions

How much should I tip?

Customs vary: around 15–20% in the United States, often 5–10% or a rounded-up amount in Europe, where service is usually included.

Is the tip calculated before or after tax?

Here the tip is calculated on the amount you enter. Enter the pre-tax amount if you prefer to tip on it.
