    How it works

    Methodology & formulas

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Multiply selected blank, print, and branding unit costs by units per order. Embroidery multiplies print cost by locations.
    2. 2Add Apliiq shipping, packaging, warehousing, and any editable Apliiq platform fee to fulfillment charges.
    3. 3Apply connected-store percentage and fixed payment charges to retail revenue, excluding buyer-paid shipping by default.
    4. 4Allocate enabled VIP cost across expected monthly orders, then add ads and other per-order costs.
    5. 5Subtract all modeled costs from retail revenue. Multiply per-order profit by expected monthly orders for the monthly estimate.

    Formulas

    • Blank cost = blank unit cost × units per order
    • Print cost = print cost per print or location × embroidery locations × units
    • Fulfillment = blank + print + labels + shipping + packaging + warehousing + retail × Apliiq fee%
    • External store/payment = retail × (payment% + transaction%) + fixed fee
    • VIP overhead allocation = enabled monthly VIP cost ÷ expected monthly orders
    • Net profit = retail − fulfillment − store/payment − VIP allocation − ads − other costs; monthly profit = net profit × expected monthly orders

    Important assumptions

    • This is a USD Apliiq fulfillment planning model, not a guaranteed payout. Product, print, destination, and account terms can change actual profit.
    • Blank scenarios start at $8 for a T-shirt, $25 for a hoodie, and $8 for a hat. DTG/DTF starts at $7.49 per print and embroidery at $7 per location. Custom overrides are available.
    • Printed neck labels start at $2.50 per unit and woven labels at $2 per unit. Packaging and warehousing start at $0 and remain editable.
    • Apliiq US shipping starts at $5.49 per order. Buyer shipping is shown separately and is not added to creator revenue or store fees in this default model.
    • The threshold scenario shows buyer-paid shipping below $100 and free shipping at or above $100. Change the threshold or shipping policy to match your store.
    • VIP is off by default. When enabled, a $39.99 monthly planning cost is allocated across expected monthly orders. Apliiq platform fee starts at 0% and remains editable.
    • Connected store and payment costs start at 2.9% plus $0.30, with optional store transaction percentage at 0%. Taxes, refunds, and reserves are included only when entered. Verify current terms before acting.

    Worked example

    Apliiq T-shirt profit

    A $29.99 order uses an $8 T-shirt blank, $7.49 DTG/DTF, $5.49 shipping, no labels, no VIP, 2.9% plus $0.30 connected payment, and $1.50 ads. Twenty orders are expected monthly.

    Profit is about $6.34 per order at a 21.1% margin, or about $126.81 across 20 orders before tax. Buyer shipping of $5.49 is shown separately below the $100 threshold.
