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
- 1Revenue equals item sale price multiplied by quantity plus shipping charged.
- 2Pinterest and gateway fees are calculated from order revenue; the fixed gateway amount is counted once.
- 3Total outflow combines channel fee, gateway, ads, product, packaging, seller shipping, and returns or other cost.
- 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 − Pinterest fee − gateway fee − ads − seller costs
Important assumptions
- Pinterest Shopping is modeled as product discovery with checkout on the merchant's own website.
- Pinterest commission or listing fee defaults to 0% because the current model does not apply a general sale commission.
- Gateway processing applies to item revenue plus shipping charged. The fixed gateway fee is counted once per order.
- Pinterest ads are optional. Enter a per-order allowance only when paid discovery contributes to the order.
- The seller's own website controls shipping, fulfillment, returns, taxes, and checkout policies in this model.
