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
- 1Select product and sale context and load the approximate fixed commission.
- 2Replace the starting estimate with a current dashboard value when available.
- 3Subtract optional external payment and other costs from commission income.
- 4Estimate per-sale and monthly net earnings and compare with the payout threshold.
Formulas
- Net per sale = fixed commission − external/payment cost − other cost
- Monthly net earnings = net per sale × expected monthly sales
- Sales for payout = ceiling(payout threshold ÷ net per sale)
- Payout progress = monthly earnings ÷ threshold × 100
Important assumptions
- TeePublic is modeled with a fixed commission, not an artist-set markup or retail-price solve.
- The 2026 US commission tables were not clearly published in the research. All product and context defaults are approximate, editable planning assumptions, not official rates.
- Planning assumptions start at $4 tee, $8 hoodie, $2 sticker, and $2 kids apparel for full-price context, with rough discounted and partner-site scenarios.
- Displayed retail price is reference-only because TeePublic controls it by product and sale context.
- Payout threshold starts around $10 and external or other costs default to $0. Verify region and account terms.
