Split Bill Calculator

Split a shared bill between any number of friends, add a tip and get the smallest set of payments needed to settle up. Works for trips, dinners and rent.

The Split Bill Calculator divides a shared bill between any number of people, adds a tip if needed, and works out the smallest set of payments required to settle up — rather than everyone paying the total separately and reconciling later. It's designed for the common situation of a group dinner, a shared trip, or ongoing rent and utility costs split between housemates.

Add each person and what they owe or contributed, include a tip percentage if relevant, and the calculator produces a simplified settlement: who pays whom, and how much, using the fewest transactions possible. Instead of everyone transferring money to everyone else, it consolidates payments down to a minimal set that settles every balance exactly.

How to use the Split Bill Calculator

  1. Add each person involved in splitting the bill.
  2. Enter the total bill amount, or itemise individual amounts if the split isn't equal.
  3. Add a tip percentage if one applies to the total.
  4. Review the calculated per-person share.
  5. Check the settlement summary showing exactly who owes whom and how much.

Why use this tool

Minimal number of payments

Rather than everyone paying everyone else, the calculator works out the smallest set of transactions needed to settle every balance.

Handles uneven splits

Not every split needs to be equal — enter individual amounts when people ordered different things or contributed different sums.

Built-in tip handling

Add a tip percentage once and it's factored into everyone's share automatically, rather than calculating it separately.

Common use cases

How settlement simplification works

Instead of every person paying every other person they owe money to, the calculator nets out balances across the whole group and produces the minimum number of transfers needed for everyone to end up even — often just one or two payments instead of many.

Splitting unequal amounts fairly

When people didn't spend the same amount — one person ordered a more expensive dish, or someone paid for a shared item upfront — enter individual contributions rather than dividing the total equally, and the calculator will account for the imbalance in the final settlement.

Adding tips and service charges

A tip percentage applied to the total is distributed proportionally across the group's shares, so the settlement figures already include everyone's fair portion of the tip without needing a separate calculation.

Frequently asked questions

Can it handle people who paid different amounts?

Yes. Enter what each person actually paid and the tool works out each balance, then lists the minimum transfers needed so everyone ends up even.

Does it work for trips and shared rent too?

Absolutely — add one row per person with everything they paid for the group, and the settle-up list shows who transfers what to whom.
