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
- 1TotalShippingCost = printifyShippingRates + packagingMaterials.
- 2ShippingProfit per paid order = chargedToBuyer - totalShippingCost.
- 3FreeOrders = round(avgMonthlyOrders * percentOrdersFree / 100).
- 4PaidOrders = avgMonthlyOrders - freeOrders.
- 5PaidRevenue = paidOrders * chargedToBuyer.
- 6PaidCost = paidOrders * totalShippingCost.
- 7FreeCost = freeOrders * totalShippingCost.
- 8NetMonthly = paidRevenue - paidCost - freeCost.
Formulas
- TotalCost = PrintifyRate + Packaging
- PerOrderProfit = Charged − TotalCost
- FreeOrders = monthly × free%
- NetMonthly = (paid × charged) − (paid × totalCost) − (free × totalCost)
Important assumptions
- Printify rate taken from provider catalog for product and destination.
- Packaging added only if you use extra materials beyond Printify default.
- Free shipping percent estimated from order value distribution vs threshold.
- Paid orders are total monthly minus free shipping orders.
- Monthly net combines paid shipping revenue minus paid shipping costs minus free shipping costs.
