How Shopify Fees Work

Shopify merchants need a clear picture of their true profit after all platform fees are accounted for. With subscription costs, transaction fees, and payment processing charges, it's not always obvious how much you're really earning on each sale.

Shopify's fee structure is straightforward but multi-layered. First, you pay a monthly subscription fee starting at $39 for the Basic plan. Then, every transaction processed through Shopify Payments incurs a 2.9% fee plus $0.30. If you use a third-party payment provider, Shopify charges an additional fee on top — 2% for Basic, 1% for Shopify, and 0.5% for Advanced plans.

Our Shopify Profit Margin Calculator gives you an instant breakdown of all costs. Enter your selling price, cost of goods, shipping, ad spend, and your monthly subscription to see your true net profit and margin percentage. Pre-loaded scenarios help you quickly evaluate profitability across different product types and price points.
