Thinkific Pricing Calculator

    Choose a payment setup, set the net amount or margin you want from each sale, and include your expected Thinkific plan volume. The calculator works backward through platform, processing, optional service, fixed, and allocated plan costs. Native payments and third-party gateway assumptions remain separate and editable, so the result is a planning scenario rather than a promise about current Thinkific terms.

    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. 1CombinedRate = platformFeePercent + processingPercent + optionalFeePercent.
    2. 2FixedPerSale = processingFixed + optionalFeePerSale + otherCostPerSale.
    3. 3PlanCostPerSale = monthlyPlanCost ÷ expectedMonthlySales when sales are greater than zero.
    4. 4PriceForTargetNet = (targetNetPerSale + FixedPerSale + PlanCostPerSale) ÷ (1 − CombinedRate).
    5. 5PriceForTargetMargin = (FixedPerSale + PlanCostPerSale) ÷ (1 − CombinedRate − targetMarginPercent).
    6. 6NetAtChosenPrice subtracts percentage fees, fixed costs, and plan allocation from currentPrice.

    Formulas

    • Rate = platform% + processing% + optional%
    • Fixed = processing fixed + optional fixed + other cost
    • Plan allocation = monthly plan cost ÷ expected sales
    • Price for net = (target net + fixed + plan allocation) ÷ (1 − rate)
    • Price for margin = (fixed + plan allocation) ÷ (1 − rate − target margin)
    • Chosen net = price − (price × rate + fixed + plan allocation)

    Important assumptions

    • PriceForTargetNet = (targetNet + percentage-independent costs + plan allocation) ÷ (1 − combined percentage fees).
    • PriceForTargetMargin solves price × (1 − combined fees − target margin) = fixed and allocated costs.
    • Plan allocation equals monthly plan cost ÷ expected monthly sales. With zero sales, allocation is treated as zero for a per-sale illustration.
    • Native Thinkific Payments or TCommerce starts at 0% additional platform fee in the researched model. Third-party rates and processing remain editable.
    • Plan prices and fee percentages are starting assumptions that can vary by country, gateway, account, and time.

    Worked example

    Basic plan at 54 per month, 20 expected sales, native payments, 0% platform fee, 2.9% processing, and 0.30 fixed fee.

    Plan allocation is 2.70 per sale. The price for 70 net is about 75.18 after processing and plan allocation. At a 99 current price, estimated net is 93.13 and the total deduction rate is about 5.9%. The target-margin output is calculated separately so you can compare goals.
