Min price needed

* Shopify Payments charges 2.9% + $0.30 (Basic), 2.6% + $0.30 (Shopify), or 2.4% + $0.30 (Advanced). Using a third-party gateway adds an extra 0.5–2% transaction fee on top. Ad spend varies by channel (Meta, Google, TikTok). Always verify current rates on Shopify's pricing page.

What's included

Built for real Shopify store owners

Every feature reflects how Shopify actually charges — not a simplified guess.

🏷️

Accurate 6.5% Transaction Fee

Etsy's transaction fee applies to both the item price AND the shipping you charge the buyer. Our calculator applies it correctly to both — many basic tools miss this.

📢

Offsite Ads fee support

Etsy's Offsite Ads charge 15% (or 12% for high-volume sellers) when a buyer comes through an external ad. Toggle it on and see the true margin impact before it surprises you.

🌍

Multi-country payment processing

Etsy payment processing rates vary by country. Choose USA, UK, EU, Canada, or Australia and get the correct rate applied — critical for international sellers.

🔄

Three calculation modes

Start from a sale price, work backwards from desired profit, or set a target margin and find your minimum listing price. Covers every real Etsy pricing decision.

📊

ROI & break-even analysis

See your return on cost and the minimum price needed to break even — essential when pricing handmade goods where your material cost varies per item.

The math behind it

How Shopify fees & profit are calculated

Understanding exactly how Shopify charges you helps you price smarter and run ads more profitably.

Shopify Net Profit Formula

Payment Fee = Sale Price × Plan % + $0.30

Shopify Costs = Payment Fee + Transaction Fee + App Costs

Net Profit = Sale Price − Shopify Costs − Shipping − Ad Spend − COGS

Quick example: You sell a product for $59.99, shipping $6.50, COGS $15.00, Basic plan (2.9% + $0.30).

Payment Fee = $59.99 × 2.9% + $0.30 = $2.04
Shipping = $6.50 · Ad Spend = $4.00 · COGS = $15.00

Net Profit = $59.99 − $2.04 − $6.50 − $4.00 − $15.00 = $32.45 (54.1%)

Common questions

Things Shopify store owners usually ask

If it's not here, the calculator usually answers it on its own.

What does Shopify charge per transaction?+

Shopify charges a payment processing fee on every sale. With Shopify Payments: Basic plan 2.9% + $0.30, Shopify plan 2.6% + $0.30, Advanced plan 2.4% + $0.30. If you use a third-party payment gateway, Shopify adds an extra 0.5% (Basic), 1% (Shopify), or 2% (Advanced) on top. Our calculator handles all these scenarios.

Should I use Shopify Payments or a third-party gateway?+

Shopify Payments eliminates the extra transaction fee (0.5–2%) and streamlines your checkout. Third-party gateways like PayPal or Stripe may be preferred in certain countries or for specific features. Use the advanced calculator to compare the true cost difference — on high-volume stores, Shopify Payments saves significantly.

How does ad spend affect my Shopify margins?+

Ad spend (Meta, Google, TikTok) is typically the largest cost for Shopify stores after COGS. A store spending 20% of revenue on ads with a 2.9% payment fee and $10 COGS on a $40 product can easily end up with under 15% net margin. Use this calculator to find your break-even ROAS before scaling ad campaigns.

What margin should I target on Shopify?+

Most successful Shopify stores target 30–50% gross margin before ad spend, and 15–30% net margin after ads. Dropshipping stores often run 20–35% gross margins. Private label or branded product stores can achieve 50%+ gross margins. The key is knowing your numbers before scaling ad spend — which is exactly what this calculator helps with.

Which Shopify plan should I choose?+

Start with Basic ($29/month) until you exceed $5,000/month in sales — at that point the lower processing fee on the Shopify Plan ($79/month) starts saving you money. The Advanced Plan ($299/month) makes sense above ~$25,000/month. Use the plan comparison in the advanced calculator to see the exact breakeven point for upgrading.

Should I include ad spend in my margin calculation?+

Yes — always. Many Shopify sellers make the mistake of calculating gross margin without ad spend and think they're profitable, only to discover they're losing money once ads are running. Enter your blended ad spend percentage (total ad spend ÷ total revenue × 100) in the advanced calculator for a true net margin picture.
