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
- 1Apply the selling percentage to item price plus buyer-paid shipping, respecting the minimum and cap.
- 2Apply selected processing to item, buyer-paid shipping, and optional tax, then add the fixed fee.
- 3Subtract platform fees and all entered seller costs from seller revenue.
- 4Profit margin uses item price plus buyer-paid shipping before tax.
Formulas
- Selling fee = clamp((itemPrice + buyerPaidShipping) × sellingFee%, minimum, maximum)
- Processing = processingBase × selected processing% + processingFixed
- Net profit = itemPrice + buyerPaidShipping − sellingFee − processing − seller shipping − product − packaging − returns/other − monthly allocation
- Margin = netProfit ÷ (itemPrice + buyerPaidShipping) × 100
Important assumptions
- This is a USD Reverb US seller-side planning model.
- Selling fee is 5% of item price plus buyer-paid shipping, with editable minimum and maximum behavior.
- Standard processing starts at 3.19% plus $0.49 and Preferred Seller starts at 2.99% plus $0.49.
- Buyer-paid tax is pass-through and affects processing only when selected.
- Ordinary listing and monthly fees default to $0. Seller shipping, product, packaging, returns, and optional monthly allocation remain seller costs.
- Verify current Reverb terms and your payment statement before acting.
