How it works

How to use Discount Calculator

  1. Type the item's price before any discount.
  2. Type the percentage being taken off, like 20 for 20% off.
  3. The sale price and amount saved appear instantly, with an optional tax rate applied to the final total.
Why it matters

Why calculate a discount

Percentage math is easy to get wrong under pressure — at checkout, comparing two sales, or figuring out if a "30% off" deal actually beats a flat dollar amount off elsewhere.

This calculator does the math for you instantly in your browser: enter the original price and the percentage off, and it shows the sale price, the amount saved, and the total with tax if you need it.

Common discount scenarios

ScenarioBest forWhy it's worth checking
Single sale percentage Most commonEveryday shoppingConfirms the actual dollar amount you're saving, not just the percentage.
Discount plus taxRetail purchases with sales taxShows your real out-the-door total, not just the pre-tax sale price.
Stacked discountsCoupon + clearance combosStacked percentages compound rather than add — worth checking the real total.
Privacy by design

Discount Calculator without uploading anything

The prices and percentages you type are read directly by JavaScript running in your browser, calculated on the spot, and shown back to you — no price, purchase, or other detail is ever transmitted to a server.

Because there's no upload involved, there's no limit on how many prices you can check.

Your numbers never leave your device. The calculation is pure client-side JavaScript, with nothing logged or stored.

Shopping in a different currency? The Currency Converter tool can help convert the sale price too.

Options guide

Percentage off vs. dollar amount off — which is the better deal?

Deal typeBest for comparingWatch out for
Percentage off Use this toolComparing deals across different priced itemsA bigger percentage isn't always a bigger dollar saving — check the actual amount.
Flat dollar amount offLower-priced itemsA flat $10 off can beat 20% off on a cheap item, but lose to it on an expensive one.

When two deals use different formats, convert both to a final dollar price using this calculator — that's the only fair way to compare them.
