What this calculator does
Use this calculator when the same product could sell on multiple channels. It applies an editable percentage fee and fixed fee to each channel, then compares net after fees and final profit side by side.
Formula used
For each channel, fee total = order revenue x percentage fee + fixed fee. Net after fees = order revenue - fee total. Profit = net after fees - cost of goods - shipping cost. Compare profit and payout margin across the channels.
Worked examples
- The same $75 order can produce very different profits across Etsy, Amazon, and eBay once each channel's effective take rate and fixed fees are applied.
- Use one representative order and compare final profit side by side before you assume the lowest headline fee is the best channel.
Notes
- This comparison uses one percentage fee and one fixed fee per channel, so it is a planning model rather than a perfect fee-policy simulator.
- Add storage, fulfillment, returns, ad spend, or listing fees into the effective channel assumptions when those costs matter to your decision.
- The most reliable comparison starts from one realistic order, not a generic average basket.
