    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 equals item sale price multiplied by quantity plus shipping charged.
    2. 2Platform and gateway charges are calculated from order revenue; gateway fixed fee is counted once.
    3. 3Total outflow combines platform fee, gateway fee, ads, product cost, packaging, seller shipping, and returns or other cost.
    4. 4Net profit equals revenue minus total outflow. Margin equals net profit divided by revenue.

    Formulas

    • Revenue = (salePrice × quantity) + shippingCharged
    • Gateway fee = revenue × gatewayPercent + gatewayFixed
    • Seller costs = productCost × quantity + packagingCost + sellerShippingCost + returnsOtherCost
    • Net profit = revenue − Meta fee − gateway fee − ads − seller costs

    Important assumptions

    • Instagram Shop is modeled as discovery with checkout completed on the seller's website.
    • Meta platform fee defaults to 0% in the current model. This is editable and should match the seller's current terms.
    • Payment gateway percentage applies to item revenue plus shipping charged. The fixed fee is charged once per order.
    • Optional ads are entered as a per-order allowance. Seller shipping cost is separate from shipping charged to the buyer.
    • Taxes, monthly store subscriptions, and refunds beyond the entered allowance are outside this order-level result.

    Worked example

    Review a tagged-product order

    One $39 item, $5 shipping charged, $12 product cost, $1.25 packaging, $5 seller shipping, $1.50 returns allowance, no ads, and 2.9% + $0.30 gateway processing.

    Revenue is $44, gateway processing is about $1.58, seller costs are $19.75, and net profit is about $22.67 at a 51.5% margin. The current Meta platform fee assumption contributes $0 to this website-checkout scenario.
