For splitting a shared tip pool between staff — enter the total and everyone's hours, get each share.
← Back to the bill-splitting tip calculator
This is a different job than splitting a restaurant bill between diners — it's for the other side of the table: a group of servers, bartenders, or delivery staff dividing up a shared tip jar or pooled service charge at the end of a shift, in proportion to how long each person worked.
Enter the total pool, then add each person with the hours they worked. The calculator divides the pool by total hours to get an hourly rate, then multiplies that rate by each person's hours — a proportional split, not an even one.
Restaurants and bars usually pool tips across everyone on the floor for a shift — servers, bartenders, hosts — and split by hours worked, which is exactly what this tool does. Some venues weight roles differently, which you can approximate by inflating that person's hours proportionally.
Salons and spas often split by service revenue instead of hours, since a stylist's chair time isn't directly comparable to a quick trim — this hours-based tool works best when the team's roles and pace are roughly similar.
Delivery teams sometimes pool tips at the end of a shift, especially for orders placed as a group — hours worked is usually the fairest split when trip length and pay per hour are broadly similar across the team.
No. This tool divides a shared tip pool among staff proportional to hours worked. To split a bill between diners, use the main tip calculator instead.
No — it's a straightforward hours-proportional split. Many venues use role-weighted formulas; this tool is best for teams sharing a pool evenly by time worked.
