Faire Wholesale Profit Calculator

    Review the economics of a Faire wholesale order from the supplier side. Compare a marketplace-discovered first order, a reorder, or Faire Direct using the same product and fulfillment costs. The result separates payout before COGS from profit, so a strong wholesale order is not confused with cash received before it pays for production.

    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. 1Revenue collected equals product subtotal plus shipping reimbursement.
    2. 2Marketplace commission uses product subtotal. Processing uses total collected plus the fixed processing fee.
    3. 3Payout before COGS subtracts only modeled platform charges from total collected.
    4. 4Total costs equal product cost times quantity plus packaging, shipping, and other costs.
    5. 5Profit equals payout before COGS less total costs. Margin uses total collected; profit per unit divides profit by quantity.

    Formulas

    • Product subtotal = wholesaleUnitPrice × orderQuantity
    • Commission = productSubtotal × marketplaceCommission%
    • Processing = totalCollected × processing% + processingFixed
    • Payout before COGS = totalCollected − commission − newCustomerFee − processing
    • Profit = payoutBeforeCogs − productCost × quantity − packaging − shipping − other costs

    Important assumptions

    • This is a brand or supplier model for US and North America wholesale planning, not a retailer margin calculator.
    • Marketplace commission defaults to 15% on product subtotal only. Shipping reimbursement is kept outside that commission base.
    • Faire Direct defaults to 0% commission and $0 new-customer fee. Processing remains editable on total collected.
    • Payout speed, region, retailer terms, and account agreements can change the real settlement. Older 25% or 15% articles may be pre-July 2024.
    • Verify current brand charges and payout terms at https://help.faire.com before using this result for a wholesale minimum or reorder plan.

    Worked example

    Faire order with a first-customer charge

    Twelve units at $24, $36 shipping reimbursement, product cost $8 per unit, packaging $6, shipping $24, other costs $5, and marketplace first-order assumptions of 15%, $10, and 3% plus $0.30 processing.

    The order collects $324. Estimated charges are $63.22, payout before COGS is $260.78, total costs are $131, and net profit is about $129.78, or 40.1% of collected total. Confirm current brand-account terms before relying on the estimate.
