Separate sales value, fees and profit
Start from the fee base
Enter the sale amount on which you want to apply the percentages. This model applies both commission and payment percentages to that same sale amount. If a platform charges against a different base, adjust the inputs to reflect it rather than assuming every fee is calculated on the item price alone.
How the deductions are combined
Total fees = sale × commission rate + fixed marketplace fee + sale × payment rate + fixed payment fee. Net payout = sale − total fees. If you enter product or other costs, profit = net payout − those costs. The effective fee rate divides total fees by sale value.
Use presets as editable starting values
Presets are illustrative input values, not a live tariff lookup. Confirm the country, category, plan, payment method and current fee base in the platform’s own seller documentation. Enter zero for a payment fee already included in another charge to avoid double counting.
What net payout leaves out
The result excludes taxes, refunds, reserves, currency conversion, shipping or advertising unless you account for them in the inputs. A currency selection only changes display formatting; it does not fetch an exchange rate. A positive payout can still produce a loss once product costs are deducted.
A hypothetical sale of 100.00
| Measure | Result |
|---|---|
| Commission 10%; fixed marketplace fee 1.00 | 11.00 |
| Payment fee 3%; fixed payment fee 0.50 | 3.50 |
| Total fees; payout | 14.50; 85.50 |
| Product cost 60.00; profit | 25.50 |
Frequently asked questions
Is payout the same as profit?
No. Payout is after the modeled fees; profit also deducts the costs you entered.
Are the preset rates guaranteed to be current?
No. They are editable examples and are not synchronized with seller accounts or tariff changes.
Do fees apply to the same base here?
Yes. Both percentage fields use the entered sale amount; check whether that matches your platform’s rule.
