How tipping works
Cuisine norms vary, but the math is the same everywhere: tip = rate × the amount you vibe with. Some prefer tipping on the pretax subtotal (the convention in many restaurants), others tip on the total including tax. This calculator shows both so you can pick the habit that feels fair to you.
Round-up mode converts each share — or the whole total — to whole dollars, killing the awkward never-quite-even birthday of the coin-and-cents split.
Splitting the bill without the awkward math
tipLivo is for anyone sitting at a table trying to figure out what they owe. You just got the check, the group is ready to leave, and nobody wants to be the person doing long division on a napkin. Enter your bill total and tip percentage, and the calculator handles the rest. It works equally well for solo diners who want to verify the suggested gratuity and for groups of six splitting everything evenly. No accounts, no ads cluttering the screen, just the numbers you need before you put your card down.
