Discount Calculator
Enter a price and discount percent - or stack coupons / reverse a sale ticket - to see savings and the final sale price.
About Discount Calculator
Enter an original price and a discount percent to see the amount saved and the final sale price. Switch to stack mode for sequential coupons (20% then 10% is not 30% off), or enter original + sale price to find the percent off. Built for retail markdowns, promo codes, and Black Friday math - all in your browser.
How to Use Discount Calculator
- Choose percent off, stack discounts, or find % off from two prices.
- Enter the original price (and a second discount or sale price if needed).
- Read the final sale price, savings, and effective percent instantly.
- Use the result for retail sales, stacked coupons, or price planning.
Discount Calculator Formula
Final price = original × (1 − discount% ÷ 100). Savings = original − final. Stacked: apply each percent to the remaining price. Reverse: percent off = (original − sale) ÷ original × 100. Example: $100 at 20% then 10% → $72 final, 28% effective.
Discount Calculator Examples
$100 at 20% off
Discount amount $20. Final price $80.
Stack two discounts
Apply sequentially: $100 → 20% off = $80, then 10% off $80 = $72 (effective 28% off, not 30%).
Find percent off from a ticket
Original $49.99 and sale $42.49 → about 15% off and $7.50 saved.

Frequently Asked Questions about Discount Calculator
- How do I calculate a discount?
- Multiply the original price by (1 − discount% ÷ 100). For $100 at 20% off: $100 × 0.80 = $80. This discount calculator shows both the final price and the amount saved.
- How do stacked discounts work?
- Each percent applies to the price left after the previous discount - not to the original. $100 with 20% then 10% becomes $72 (28% effective), not $70. Use Stack discounts mode to compare coupon stacks before checkout.
- How do I find what percentage off a sale price is?
- Use Find % off mode: enter the original price and the sale price. Percent off = (original − sale) ÷ original × 100. Example: $100 → $80 is 20% off.
- Can I use any currency?
- Yes. The tool only uses numbers, so enter amounts in your currency. Results stay in the same units without adding a symbol.
- How do I calculate a discount with tax?
- First get the discounted price, then multiply by (1 + tax rate). Example: $80 after 20% off × 1.08 for 8% tax = $86.40. Check whether tax applies before or after the discount in your region - this tool shows the pre-tax discounted price.
- What if the discount is more than 100%?
- Discounts above 100% are not valid retail scenarios. The calculator can produce a zero or negative final price - treat anything over 100% as invalid for real sales.
- Should I round sale prices to .99?
- Many retailers round display prices to .99 for marketing psychology after computing the discounted amount. This tool shows exact math; apply rounding only when it matches your store policy.
- Can I compare several discount tiers?
- Yes. Run 20%, 30%, and 50% off (or stack two coupons) to compare final price and savings before you publish a Black Friday or checkout promotion.
