Splitting a restaurant bill evenly doesn't feel fair when people ordered noticeably different amounts — one person's steak dinner shouldn't cost the same as another's side salad. This tool splits tax and tip proportionally based on what each person actually ordered.
Enter each person's subtotal before tax and tip, and the tool calculates their fair share of the total tax and tip based on their proportion of the overall bill, then shows exactly what each person owes.
This proportional approach is generally seen as fairer than an even split when order amounts vary significantly, since everyone pays tax and tip roughly matching what they actually consumed.

Frequently asked questions
Is this fairer than splitting evenly?
When people order noticeably different amounts, proportional splitting is generally considered more fair, since tax and tip scale with what each person ordered rather than being divided equally regardless of order size.
What if everyone ordered about the same amount?
In that case the proportional and even split methods produce nearly identical results, so either approach works fine.
