What does the tool show you?

The seven core metrics you get from the calculation and what they mean.

📊

Monthly + Yearly Revenue

Shows your store's real sales volume based on average order value and monthly order count.

💳

Fixed Fee per Plan

The unchanging monthly subscription fee Shopify charges for each plan.

💵

Payment Commission per Plan

The total of credit card and transaction fees charged on each order, varying by plan.

📦

Real Cost per Order

Shows an order's total cost to Shopify (share of fixed fee + commission).

💰

Total Monthly Cost per Plan

The total of the fixed plan fee, payment commissions and any extra transaction fees.

⚖️

Difference Between Plans

Shows how much more or less you pay per month between plans.

🎯

Break-even Point

The threshold beyond a certain order count where the higher plan becomes more advantageous.

In Depth

The right Shopify plan isn't chosen by looking at the price alone

The real difference between Shopify plans isn't the visible monthly subscription fee; it's the payment commissions and transaction fees. At low order volume, the cheap-looking price of the Basic plan makes sense, but as your order count and revenue grow, the lower commission rates of higher plans pull the total cost down. That's why the "cheapest plan" isn't always the most advantageous one.

When you enter your average order value (AOV), monthly order count, currency and whether you use Shopify Payments, this tool calculates the total monthly cost, cost per order of the three plans (Basic, Grow, Advanced) and the break-even point that shows at which order volume moving to a higher plan becomes profitable. So you decide with your own numbers, not guesswork.

Since Shopify Payments isn't supported in Turkey-based stores, external payment provider commissions and Shopify's additional transaction fee are also taken into account. When you select TRY, plan prices are converted at the current USD rate.

* Shopify Payments online card rate (USD). ** Extra transaction fee applied when using an external payment provider instead of Shopify Payments. Prices are estimates; they may change according to current Shopify pricing.

As the rates in the table show, moving to higher plans increases the fixed monthly fee but lowers the commission deducted from each order. The calculator solves exactly this balance with your numbers and gives a clear answer to "which plan is really cheaper for my store?".

Why This Tool?

Decide with numbers, not guesses

It helps you choose a plan by "lowest total cost" logic rather than "lowest price".

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What people wonder about Shopify plan costs and the calculator.

01What does this tool calculate?
Based on the average order value and monthly order count you enter, it calculates the total monthly cost (fixed fee + payment commission), cost per order and break-even point between the three Shopify plans, and recommends the best plan for you.
02Are the results exact prices?
No, the results are estimates. Actual costs may vary by country, payment provider, campaigns and Shopify's current pricing. The tool provides approximate values to help you decide.
03Why isn't the cheapest plan always the best?
The Basic plan has a low monthly fee but a higher transaction commission. As your order volume grows, the high commission exceeds the fixed-fee difference of the higher plan and becomes more expensive overall. The tool finds this "break-even point" for you.
04What does break-even point mean?
It's the threshold beyond a certain monthly order count where the higher plan's (higher fixed fee, lower commission) total cost becomes lower than the lower plan. If you've passed this threshold, moving to the higher plan is profitable.
05What changes when I select TRY?
Shopify plan fees are USD-based; when you select TRY, they're converted at the current USD rate. Also, since Shopify Payments isn't supported in Turkey, an external payment provider commission and Shopify's extra transaction fee are included in the calculation.
06Why is the Shopify Payments option important?
If you use Shopify Payments, you don't pay an extra transaction fee; only the card commission applies. If you don't, both the external provider commission and Shopify's plan-based extra transaction fee are added and the cost increases.
07How does the VAT inclusive/exclusive choice affect the result?
Revenue is shown on the net amount excluding VAT. If you select "VAT-inclusive", VAT is separated from the amount you enter; commissions, however, are calculated on the VAT-inclusive amount the customer pays.
08Is my data stored?
The calculation runs in your browser; the store details you enter are not stored for marketing purposes. The tool is free and requires no sign-up to use.
09When does Shopify Plus come into play?
At very high revenue and order volumes (usually several million USD per year and up), Shopify Plus may be more suitable. This tool compares the three standard plans; for Plus you can contact our team.
