Know your real margin on every order after marketplace fees

For: e-commerce

A listing that looks like 40% margin can be closer to 25% once the marketplace fee, the payment fee and shipping are paid. Put those in once and every price you test shows the net figure.

How e-commerce teams use Profit Margin Calculator

  1. Enter your product cost and your planned price.
  2. Add the marketplace or payment fee %, the fixed fee per order and your shipping cost.
  3. Read net margin and break-even; use the target box to find the price for the net margin you want.
  4. List your catalogue in the product table and download it as CSV for your shop sheet.

In the app's own worked example a 40% gross margin falls to 24.7% net after a 10% fee, a fixed 0.30 and 5 of shipping.

The discount box shows how many more sales a promotion needs before it pays for itself.

Worked example: an item that costs 60 and sells for 100, with a 10% marketplace fee, a 0.30 fixed fee and 5 shipping

FAQ

Does it know each marketplace's fees?

No. You type the fee % and fixed fee from your marketplace's own fee page, so it works for any shop or platform.

Can I compare several products?

Yes. The product table gives each row's margin and markup plus a weighted margin for the whole list.
