About Shopify Fee Calculator
The Shopify Fee Calculator shows exactly what you keep from every sale after Shopify's cut. Enter a sale price, pick your plan (Basic at 2.9%, Shopify at 2.7%, or Advanced at 2.5%, each plus the fixed $0.30 per-transaction fee), and it instantly breaks down the payment processing fee and your net payout. That is the number most sellers are hunting for when they search for a Shopify transaction fee or selling fee calculator: how much of the price actually lands in your pocket.
Add an optional product cost and it goes a step further, subtracting that cost from your payout to show your profit per sale and your profit margin as a percentage of the price. Because everything updates live as you type, you can line up different prices and plans side by side to see which combination leaves you the most, or work backward to find a price that hits the margin you want.
The rates here are Shopify Payments' standard online card rates, so they give a solid estimate for a typical store. Actual charges can shift with your country (the UK and other regions have their own rates), card type, in-person versus online sales, or a third-party gateway that tacks on extra fees, so treat the result as a close estimate and confirm exact figures in your Shopify dashboard.
It is completely free with no sign-up, and it runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is uploaded or stored anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
- How are Shopify payment fees calculated?
- Shopify Payments charges a percentage of the sale price based on your plan (2.9% on Basic, 2.7% on Shopify, 2.5% on Advanced) plus a fixed $0.30 per transaction. This tool computes fee = price × rate + $0.30, then subtracts it from the sale price to show your net payout.
- What is the Shopify transaction fee per sale?
- On Shopify Payments the transaction fee is a percentage of the order plus a flat $0.30 — 2.9% on Basic, 2.7% on Shopify, and 2.5% on Advanced. Enter a price and the calculator applies the right percentage and the $0.30 to show the total fee for that single sale.
- Does this include product cost and profit?
- Yes. If you enter an optional product cost, the calculator subtracts it from your net payout to show your profit per sale and your profit margin as a percentage of the sale price. Leave the cost blank to just see fees and payout.
- Which Shopify plans and rates does it support?
- It covers the three main plans with their standard online card rates: Basic at 2.9%, Shopify at 2.7%, and Advanced at 2.5%, all with the $0.30 per-transaction fee. Just pick your plan from the dropdown to apply the right rate.
- What counts as a Shopify selling fee?
- The main selling fee is the payment processing charge Shopify Payments takes on each order — the percentage plus $0.30 that this tool calculates. If you use an outside payment gateway instead of Shopify Payments, Shopify also adds a separate transaction fee on top, which this estimate does not include.
- Does this calculate PayPal fees on Shopify?
- This calculator uses Shopify Payments' card rates, not PayPal's. If a buyer checks out with PayPal Express instead, PayPal charges its own separate percentage and fixed fee, so your actual cost on that order will differ from the figure shown here.
- Can I use this for a UK Shopify store?
- You can, but the built-in percentages and the $0.30 fixed fee reflect standard US pricing. UK Shopify Payments rates are charged in pounds with different percentages and a smaller fixed fee, so treat the result as a ballpark and check your UK plan's current rates for exact numbers.
- Can I compare Etsy vs Shopify fees here?
- This calculator is built for Shopify Payments only, so it shows Shopify's side of the math. To compare, run your price through it, then check Etsy's separate listing, transaction, and payment fees, since Etsy's fee structure works differently and is not included here.
- Are these the exact fees I will be charged?
- These are the standard Shopify Payments online rates and give an accurate estimate for most stores. Actual fees can vary by country, card type, in-person vs online sales, and whether you use a third-party gateway (which adds extra fees), so check your Shopify dashboard for exact figures.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes, it is 100% free with no account, sign-up, or limits. Use it as often as you like.
- Is my data uploaded or stored anywhere?
- No. The calculator runs entirely in your browser and does all math locally. Your prices, costs, and results are never sent to a server, saved, or shared with anyone.
