Tipper (Palm) is a useful everyday utility that saves you time (and mathematical embarrassment) when dining out.
Its two main purposes are:
1. Quickly calculate a round total amount based on the percentage you wish to tip.
2. Evenly split the total amount between 2 or more payers.
How Tipper Helps
While paying a restaurant bill, we make mental decisions about what percentage to tip based on the quality of service.
We then calculate the tip amount, usually add a small fraction to round up the total to the nearest whole number.
For example, suppose the bill amount (including tax) is 27.52.
We decide to tip 15%, which is 4.13.
So the total amount including tip is 27.52 + 4.13 = 31.65.
We round that up to 32 and sign the receipt.
It's easy to write 32.00 as the total amount, but most restaurants require you to specify the tip amount separately. Calculating the "actual tip" based on the total can be challenging and time consuming.
Tipper saves you the effort by calculating the total and displaying the actual tip amount. Additionally, if you specify more than one payer, the total amount is split evenly and each payer's share is displayed (see screen shot).
For simplicity, Tipper always rounds the total up to the nearest whole number. So you will never see a total like 31.65. This means your actual tip will always be fractionally higher than the percentage you selected.
Not only will paying in whole numbers make it much easier to pay in cash, it make your expense reports look prettier and your server earns a small bonus.
Tipper is simple and fast. It will save you from mathematical worries AND make you look smart in front of your company. Download a copy now and enjoy the few extra moments of your dining experience!
