Tip Calculation Formulas
Standard Tipping Guidelines
USA: 15–20% is standard at restaurants. 20–25% for excellent service. Tipping is expected and forms a significant part of server wages.
UK: 10–15% is common at restaurants, though not always expected. Some restaurants add a service charge automatically — check the bill first.
EU: Tipping is less mandatory than in the USA. Rounding up the bill or leaving 5–10% is appreciated. In Germany it's common to tell the server the total you're paying.
Poland: 10% is a common tip at restaurants. Tipping is appreciated but not obligatory.
// Service Charge
Always check if a service charge is already included — usually 10–12.5% in UK restaurants. No need to tip twice.
// Cash Tips
In some countries, cash tips go directly to the server. Card tips may be pooled or shared with other staff differently.
// Round Up
Rounding up to the nearest £5 or $5 per person keeps the maths simple and often results in a slightly higher tip.
// Pre-Tax Tip
In the USA, you can calculate the tip on the pre-tax amount rather than the total — both are acceptable practice.
