Formula notes

Net revenue = selling price - discount.

Break-even ROAS compares revenue to pre-ad profit. If your actual ROAS is below that number, ads likely lose money on first purchase.

Shopify defaults use a common Basic plan card-rate style input. Payment fees and third-party transaction fees vary by plan, country, and payment provider. Last config update: 2026-07-13.

How to use this calculator

Formula

Shopify Profit Calculator 2026 follows a simple seller economics model: revenue minus product cost, shipping, platform fees, payment fees, advertising, and other order-level costs.

  • Revenue is based on selling price and buyer-paid charges.
  • Costs include product, shipping, fees, ads, and overhead where relevant.
  • Margin is net profit divided by revenue.
  • Break-even metrics estimate the point where profit reaches zero.

Example workflow

A seller can enter a target price, product cost, shipping cost, and fee rate, then compare profit margin before deciding whether the item deserves more research.

  • Check the default result first.
  • Change product cost or fee rate to match your supplier and marketplace.
  • Try a higher and lower selling price.
  • Use the result to reject weak products faster.

Common mistakes

The most common issue is treating marketplace revenue as profit. Shopify Profit Calculator 2026 helps expose hidden costs before they become expensive inventory mistakes.

  • Forgetting shipping, returns, or ad costs.
  • Using a generic fee rate for every category.
  • Ignoring fixed fees on low-priced products.
  • Making sourcing decisions before checking break-even price.

FAQ

What is plan allocation?

It is your monthly Shopify plan and app cost divided across expected orders. It helps you see profit after recurring store costs.

What does break-even ROAS mean?

Break-even ROAS is the ad return needed for an order to avoid losing money before repeat purchases or lifetime value.

Should I add app subscriptions?

Yes. Divide recurring app and plan costs by expected monthly orders and enter the result as plan/app cost per order.

How do I calculate Shopify profit margin?

Subtract product cost, shipping, discounts, payment processing, ad cost, and allocated app or plan cost from net revenue, then divide profit by net revenue.

Why can Shopify profit be lower than expected?

Shopify payment fees may be small, but customer acquisition, discounts, apps, creative production, and support costs can reduce net margin quickly.
