Guide

How to split a bill (Dutch pay)

Enter the total, how many people are sharing, and an optional tip or service charge. The calculator divides it evenly and shows what each person pays. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Turn on rounding to round each person's share up to a tidy amount (handy for cash or quick transfers). It then shows the total collected and any small leftover, which usually covers the rounding.

Practical guide

Fair bill splitting without mental math

Tip and service charge order

The tip or service percentage is added to the total first, then the adjusted amount is divided by the number of people. This matches the usual restaurant workflow where a service charge belongs to the whole bill before splitting.

Rounding creates a small difference

When you round each person's share up, the collected total may be slightly higher than the exact total. The calculator shows that difference so the group can leave it as extra tip, return it to the payer, or use it for a small shared cost.

Equal split vs custom shares

This page is for equal splitting. If people ordered very different amounts, use it as a quick baseline and then adjust manually. Equal split works best for shared meals, taxis, group tickets and simple team expenses.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Dutch pay?

Dutch pay (going Dutch) means everyone pays an equal share of a shared bill instead of one person covering it all.

Can I add a tip or service charge?

Yes. Enter a percentage and it is added to the total before splitting.

Why round up per person?

Rounding each share up to the nearest 100, 500 or 1,000 makes cash or transfers easier. The small leftover usually covers the rounding.

Is the tip split evenly too?

Yes. The tip percentage is added to the bill first, then the total including tip is split equally.

What should we do with the leftover?

The leftover appears only when rounding is enabled. The group can treat it as extra tip, return it to the person who paid, or use it to cover transfer fees.

Can it split by different orders?

No. This calculator is for equal shares. For item-by-item bills, calculate each person's items separately or use the result as a rough baseline.
