Shopify Profit Calculator
Shopify is cheap per order and expensive per month. This calculator spreads the plan fee across your order volume.
Enter your numbers above.
The hidden cost: fixed monthly fees
A $39/month plan is trivial at 1,000 orders and brutal at 30. At 30 orders per month the plan alone costs $1.30 per order. That is why low-volume stores often lose money on paper while feeling busy.
| Plan | Monthly | Card rate |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | $39 | 2.9% + 30c |
| Grow | $105 | 2.7% + 30c |
| Advanced | $399 | 2.5% + 30c |
