Bill Splitter - Split Restaurant Bills & Shared Expenses | Hexa

Why Fair Bill Splitting Matters

Splitting a restaurant bill can turn a fun evening into an awkward moment. Who had the extra drink? Who ordered the appetizer? Who's vegetarian and had the cheaper meal? Unequal splits cause resentment; equal splits can feel unfair when orders varied widely. A bill splitter removes the guesswork: enter the total, add a tip if needed, and divide by your chosen method. Everyone sees exactly what they owe. No more fumbling with calculators or Venmo confusion. The same logic applies to shared groceries, group trips, and household expenses—anywhere costs need to be divided fairly.

Three Ways to Split a Bill

Equal split: Everyone pays the same amount. Best when orders were similar or when simplicity matters more than precision. Example: $120 bill for 4 people = $30 each (before tip).

Custom amounts: Assign specific amounts to each person. Ideal when one person had a $50 steak and another had a $15 salad. Enter each person's share and the tool shows the total and any remainder.

Percentage split: Split by percentage (e.g., 40%, 30%, 30%). Useful for shared expenses where contribution varies—like roommates splitting rent by room size.

Adding Tips Fairly

Tipping culture varies by country, but in the US, 15–20% is standard for restaurant service. Our bill splitter lets you add a tip percentage to the total before splitting. The tip is distributed proportionally—if you split equally, everyone pays an equal share of the tip; if you split by custom amounts, the tip follows each person's share.

Saving and Reusing Bills
