Frequently asked questions

Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?

Either is acceptable; tipping on the pre-tax amount is slightly more common and is what most people mean by the bill total.

How is the per-person amount calculated?

The total bill plus tip is divided evenly by the number of people entered.
