Imagine a $40 order with 4 pizzas and 8 miles delivery distance.

Using the Pizza Delivery Tip Formula

• Base tip (10%): $4.00

• 4 pizzas (+$3): $3.00

• 8 miles delivery distance (3 miles over 5 × $1): $3.00

• Total Formula Tip: $4.00 + $3.00 + $3.00 = $10.00

vs. Straight 15%: $6.00

Using the Straight 15% Rule

• Base tip (15% of $40): $6.00

1. What is the Pizza Delivery Tip Calculator?

Definition: Welcome to the Pizza Delivery Tip Calculator. This tool helps you determine a fair tip for pizza delivery based on order amount, number of pizzas, and delivery distance.

Purpose: At YourTipCalculator.com, we simplify tipping for pizza delivery services. The Pizza Delivery Tip Formula applies 10% base tip, $3 for orders with more than 3 pizzas, and $1 per mile over 5 miles with a $3 minimum, while the Straight 15% Rule uses a flat 15%.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses two methods:

\[ \text{Base Tip} = 0.10 \times \text{Order Amount} \] \[ \text{Large Order Bonus} = 3 \text{ (if Number of Pizzas > 3, otherwise 0)} \] \[ \text{Distance Bonus} = (\text{Delivery Distance} - 5) \times 1 \text{ (if Delivery Distance > 5, otherwise 0)} \] \[ \text{Total Tip (Formula)} = \max(3, \text{Base Tip} + \text{Large Order Bonus} + \text{Distance Bonus}) \] or \[ \text{Total Tip (15% Rule)} = 0.15 \times \text{Order Amount} \]

Where:

$ \text{Total Tip} $ — Total tip amount in dollars (Pizza Delivery Formula has $3 minimum)
$ \text{Order Amount} $ — Total order cost in USD
$ \text{Number of Pizzas} $ — Number of pizzas in the order
$ \text{Delivery Distance} $ — Delivery distance in miles

Explanation: Enter the Order Amount, Number of Pizzas, and Delivery Distance, then select a method. The Pizza Delivery Tip Formula adds 10% base tip, $3 for orders with more than 3 pizzas, and $1 per mile over 5 miles with a $3 minimum. The Straight 15% Rule applies 15% of the order amount. Results show the recommended tip.

3. Common Pizza Delivery Tipping Methods
