What is a Discount Calculator?
A discount calculator is a simple yet powerful tool that helps you calculate the final price of an item after applying a discount. Whether you're shopping during a sale, comparing deals, or planning your budget, this calculator instantly shows you how much you'll save and what you'll actually pay.
Our discount calculator supports both percentage-based discounts (like "20% off") and fixed amount discounts (like "$50 off"). Simply enter the original price and the discount, and the calculator will instantly show you the savings and final price.

A 25% discount isn't always better than a $30 off coupon. Use this calculator to compare both types and choose the better deal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a percentage discount?
To calculate a percentage discount, multiply the original price by the discount percentage (as a decimal), then subtract that amount from the original price. For example: $100 with 20% off = $100 - ($100 × 0.20) = $80.
What's the difference between percentage and fixed discounts?
Percentage discounts are based on a portion of the price (e.g., 25% off), while fixed discounts are a specific dollar amount off (e.g., $10 off). The better deal depends on the original price.
Can I calculate multiple discounts at once?
This calculator handles one discount at a time. For multiple discounts, calculate the first discount, then use the resulting price as the new original price for the second discount calculation.
Is this calculator accurate for tax calculations?
This calculator shows pre-tax prices. Remember that sales tax is typically applied after discounts, so your final checkout price may be higher than the calculated amount shown here.
Is my data secure when using this calculator?
Absolutely! All calculations are performed entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security for your shopping information.
