    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. 1Gross seller revenue equals item price plus buyer-paid shipping, multiplied by shipment count.
    2. 2Shipped checkout fee equals the larger of percentage fee and minimum fee per shipment, multiplied by shipment count. Local pickup fee is zero.
    3. 3Payout before product cost subtracts platform fee, seller label or carrier cost, packaging, and returns or other cost.
    4. 4Profit subtracts product cost as well. Margin equals profit divided by gross seller revenue.

    Formulas

    • Gross revenue = (itemPricePerShipment + buyerPaidShippingPerShipment) × shipmentCount
    • Shipped fee = max((item price + buyer shipping) × platformFee%, minimumFeePerShipment) × shipmentCount
    • Local pickup fee = $0 in this model
    • Profit = gross revenue − platform fee − seller shipping − packaging − product − returns and other costs

    Important assumptions

    • This is a US-focused planning estimate. Checkout availability, seller eligibility, and country terms vary.
    • Shipped Marketplace checkout defaults to a 10% fee with an editable $0.80 minimum per shipment. Buyer-paid shipping is included in the modeled fee base.
    • Local pickup without Marketplace checkout uses 0% platform fee in this model. Seller travel, payment, or meet-up costs belong in Returns and other cost.
    • Sales tax is excluded from seller revenue. Enter only the item and shipping amounts that belong to the seller transaction.
    • Older guidance quoting 5% and $0.40 is outdated for this planning model. Verify current terms and checkout availability in your Marketplace account.

    Worked example

    US shipped checkout order

    One shipment with a $45 item, $8 buyer-paid shipping, $8 seller label, $15 product cost, $1 packaging, and $2 returns or other cost. Shipped checkout uses 10% and a $0.80 minimum.

    Gross seller revenue is $53. The 10% fee is $5.30, above the $0.80 minimum. Payout before product cost is $36.70 after seller shipping, packaging, and other cost, and estimated profit is $21.70 after product cost. Sales tax is outside this result.
