Example: $10 Grubhub Order (Split Among 1 Person)

Imagine you place a $10 Grubhub order with no splitting.

Using the Grubhub Tip Formula

• Base tip (15% of $10): $1.50

• Minimum $3 tip applied

• Total Fare: $10 + $3.00 = $13.00

Tip is $3.00, total fare is $13.00.

Using the 20% Rule

• Base tip (20% of $10): $2.00

• Total Fare: $10 + $2.00 = $12.00

Tip is $2.00, total fare is $12.00.

1. What is the Grubhub Tip Calculator?

Definition: Welcome to the Grubhub Tip Calculator. This tool helps you determine a fair tip for your Grubhub delivery driver and the total fare including the tip, using the Grubhub Tip Formula (15% with $3 minimum) or a 20% rule.

Purpose: At YourTipCalculator.com, we simplify tipping for Grubhub orders. The Grubhub Tip Formula applies 15% of the order cost with a $3 minimum, while the 20% rule has no minimum, helping you calculate your tip and total fare confidently.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses two methods:

\[ \text{Total Tip} = \max(3, 0.15 \times \text{Order Cost}) \] or \[ \text{Total Tip} = 0.20 \times \text{Order Cost} \]

Then: \[ \text{Total Fare (with Tip)} = \text{Order Cost} + \text{Total Tip} \]

Where:

  • \( \text{Total Tip} \) — Total tip amount in dollars (Grubhub Tip Formula has $3 minimum)
  • \( \text{Order Cost} \) — Total order cost in USD
  • \( \text{Total Fare (with Tip)} \) — Order cost plus tip in USD
If splitting: \[ \text{Tip per Person} = \frac{\text{Total Tip}}{\text{Number of People}} \]

Explanation: Enter the Order Cost, Number of People, and select a method. The Grubhub Tip Formula uses 15% of the order cost with a $3 minimum, while the 20% rule applies 20% with no minimum. Results show tip, per-person tip, and total fare.

3. Common Grubhub Tipping Methods

Details: The Grubhub Tip Formula applies 15% of the order cost with a $3 minimum to ensure fair compensation, while the 20% rule offers a flexible percentage option with no minimum. Pro Tip: Use 20% for exceptional service or larger orders.
