FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the shopify profit calculator answered.

What is the difference between Shopify transaction fees and credit card fees?+
If you use Shopify Payments (available in US, UK, Canada, Australia), you pay no transaction fee — only the credit card processing fee (typically 1.5–2% depending on plan). If you use a third-party payment gateway (PayPal, Stripe, etc.), Shopify charges an additional transaction fee of 0.5–2% on top of the gateway's own processing fee. Using Shopify Payments on the Basic plan saves approximately $2,000/year on $100,000 revenue.
What is a good ROAS for Shopify stores?+
ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) of 3x or above is generally considered the break-even point for most Shopify stores with 30–40% gross margins. A 4–5x ROAS is healthy, and 6x+ is excellent. With thin margins (20–25%), you need a 5–7x ROAS to stay profitable. Calculate your break-even ROAS as: Sale Price / (Sale Price − COGS − non-ad fees).

True Shopify Profit After All Fees

A Shopify Basic store generating $15,000/month revenue with 35% COGS, $6 shipping per order, $1,500 ad spend, and 5% return rate walks away with approximately $2,400–$3,200 net profit (16–21% margin). Upgrading to the Shopify plan at $105/month halves the transaction fee — saving $150/month at this revenue level, which pays for the plan upgrade and then some.

  • Use Shopify Payments to eliminate the third-party transaction fee
  • Negotiate shipping rates with carriers once you exceed 100 orders/month
  • A 1% reduction in return rate saves significant money at scale
  • Calculate break-even ROAS before setting ad budgets
