Shopify Profit Calculator
Price each order with a clear view of payment fees, operating costs, and the profit left for your store.
Decision summary
Platform fees are calculated from your current inputs; extra costs are shown separately.
Sale composition
Color customization
Optional extra costs
These adjust profit only; they do not change the platform-fee authority.
Planning boundary
Use this as a local planning estimate. Verify current fees, taxes, advertising, and overhead before making a pricing decision.
How the fee stack splits the sale
Fee wedge for the current order revenue using the documented Shopify Basic model (2.9% card rate + $0.30 fixed + $39/mo plan amortized over 20 orders). The plate treats shipping as $0.00 because this calculator records shipping as a cost; your entered payment rate and allocated platform/app cost are not part of the plate model.
How the fee estimate works
Payment fees use the editable payment percentage and fixed fee shown above, applied to order revenue. Product cost, shipping, advertising, and any allocated platform/app cost are deducted after payment fees. Results are planning estimates; Shopify and payment-processor terms can change.

What Shopify charges sellers — Shopify sellers using Shopify Payments pay about 2.9% plus $0.30 per US online card transaction (lower on higher plans), and roughly 0.2% to 1.5% extra when a third-party processor is used instead. Use this Shopify profit calculator to see how payment fees and per-order costs split order revenue before you set a price.

What does this calculator estimate?
Your profit is what remains after every fee is subtracted from the sale. The formula: revenue minus product cost, shipping, advertising, payment processing, and allocated platform/app costs. For a $100 order, plug in landed product cost, fulfillment shipping, ad cost per order, payment fees, and a per-order share of recurring platform costs. BoringToolsKit runs the exact number free, no signup, entirely in your browser.
How this calculator works
Formula
Profit = revenue - product cost - shipping - ad cost - payment fees (rate % + fixed) - platform allocation.
Worked example
A $100 order with $35 product, $8 shipping, $12 ads, 2.9% + $0.30 payment fees and $2 platform allocation: $3.20 fees, $57 operating costs, $39.80 profit (39.8% margin).
Assumptions to verify
- Advertising cost is entered on a per-order basis.
- Subscription and app costs are allocated to one order by the user.
- Returns, taxes, discounts, support, and overhead may require additional allowances.
Frequently asked questions
How do I estimate platform cost per order?
Divide recurring monthly platform and app costs by the expected number of orders for that month.
Should sales tax count as revenue?
Taxes collected for remittance are generally not operating revenue; use net order revenue appropriate to your records.
What is contribution margin?
It is the amount left after variable order costs, before broader fixed overhead and tax.
