Shopify Profit CalculatorPayment fees and ads included

Your own store has no marketplace commission, but ads take a bigger share. Pick your Shopify plan, add costs and ROAS, and see what each order really leaves and the ROAS your ads must beat.

Shopify fees

Shopify Payments rates for US online card sales. The monthly plan fee is a fixed cost, so it is not included in per-unit margin. Defaults are reference values from public pages as of November 2026.

How the shopify profit is calculated

  1. STEP 1

    Payment fee = order total × rate + 30¢

    Basic 2.9% + 30¢, Grow 2.7% + 30¢, Advanced 2.5% + 30¢ for US online cards. Other gateways add a transaction fee.

  2. STEP 2

    Profit = order total − fees − COGS − shipping − ads

    Add discounts, packaging and expected returns for a realistic number.

  3. STEP 3

    Break-even ROAS for your ads

    The minimum ROAS Meta, Google or TikTok ads must hit for this product.
