TipLivo Content Team

TipLivo is maintained by an in-house editorial team that covers a tip calculator. The writing and the tool share the same maintainers.

The subject matter is deliberately narrow — Tip Calculator. Because it works out the tip, the total and each person's share, with quick percentages, a pre- or post-tax switch, bill splitting and rounding, the articles can go a level deeper than a general overview, whether the reader arrives from settling a restaurant bill in a group, working out a tip on a pre-tax total or splitting a taxi fare evenly.

The review step asks two questions: can the working be repeated from the article alone, and could a reader mistake the wording for professional advice. Where the answer to the second is yes, the text is narrowed to the numbers.

Anything that looks wrong can be sent to support@tiplivo.com. Confirmed errors are fixed on the page itself.
