Frequently Asked Questions
Is tipping customary in Africa?
Tipping customs vary widely: South Africa: 10-15% is standard at restaurants; not common for casual takeout. Nigeria: 5-10% at mid-range restaurants; not expected at fast food. Kenya: 10% at sit-down restaurants; "service charge" often already included. West Africa: Not traditionally common but growing in urban areas. Check your bill for service charge (usually 5-10%) before adding extra tip.
Best apps to split bills in Africa?
Popular apps: SplitWise (global, widely used), Settle Up (Android/iOS), Nosh (Nigeria food delivery with split), M-Pesa Request Money (Kenya), Cowrywise (Nigeria). For quick informal splits, WhatsApp groups + mobile money (M-Pesa, MoMo, OPay) work well. Simply calculate each person's share, then request payment directly via mobile money — instant and traceable.
How to handle unequal contributions in a group?
Use the Custom % method: assign each person their share percentage based on what they ordered or consumed. For accommodation splits, consider usage (who had the larger room?). For group travel, consider income levels and agree upfront on the fairness principle: strict equality, proportional to earnings, or weighted by consumption. Document the agreed amounts in WhatsApp to avoid disputes.
