How tax and service charge are worked out

The order matters: service comes first, from the food. Then the tax is worked out from the food plus the service.

1Add up the orderAll the food and drinks, before service and tax.480,000
2Work out the serviceThe percentage is on the receipt or the menu, usually 5–10%.5% × 480,000 = 24,000
3Work out the tax from order + serviceOften 10%. This is the step people get wrong most.10% × 504,000 = 50,400

Total to payRp 554,400

Splitting by item? Each person’s order times 554,400 ÷ 480,000. Dewi’s 60,000 from before comes to 69,300.

In Indonesia this tax is PB1 (officially PBJT since 2024), at most 10% and set by each region. Singapore’s GST is also charged on the service charge. Check the percentages on your receipt.

Then, who pays who

Usually one person pays at the till. Gatherjar shows how much everyone sends them, and each person can mark that they’ve paid.

D Dewi to Rika 69,300 Paid

B Budi to Rika 69,300 Mark paid

F Fajar to Rika 124,740 Mark paid

Questions people ask

The receipt total already includes tax. What do I do?

Untick Service and Tax and type the receipt’s total. It’s then simply divided by the number of people.

What about a discount or a promo?

Most receipts take the discount off the food first, then add service and tax. Type the food total after the discount.

Do I need to sign up or install an app?

No. The calculator works right here and nothing you type leaves your phone. Splitting by item doesn’t need an account either; your friends just open the link.

Does it work in other currencies?

Yes. Pick the currency next to the amount; splitting by item works in any currency too.

Why is my share a little more than the total divided by everyone?

Rupiah shares are rounded up to Rp 100, so whoever paid isn’t short. The calculator shows how much the rounding adds.
