Which Shopify plan really costs you less?
The plan with the lowest price tag may not be the one with the lowest bill. Enter your numbers and see the real amount, fees included.
Everything runs in your browser. The numbers you type never reach our server.
Which plan at which revenue?
The plan with the lowest total cost at each monthly revenue. Plans that don’t meet your must-haves are left out of this strip.
Cost share as revenue grows
Total cost as a share of revenue. Where lines cross, the cheaper plan changes. The horizontal axis is logarithmic.

This is an estimate, not a quote. Check Shopify and your payment provider’s current contract for exact amounts.
What’s behind the calculation?
With an external payment provider on Shopify, two things come out of every sale: your provider’s commission and Shopify’s third-party transaction fee. Higher plans cost more per month but charge a lower fee. The real question is the revenue at which the two trade places.
For each plan we add up the subscription in dollars times the exchange rate, revenue times Shopify’s fee, and revenue times your provider’s commission. The provider’s commission is the same on every plan, so it changes the total but not the ranking.
Most calculations stop at today’s revenue. We also include growth: subscriptions move with the exchange rate, fees move with your sales. A plan that looks cheap today can fall behind over three years.
What isn’t included
- Paid apps, theme and development costs
- Shipping, taxes and VAT
- Shopify’s introductory offers, such as discounted first months
- The variable platform fee that can apply to high-volume Plus stores: Shopify doesn’t publish this rate, so ask sales for it in writing

Questions
Why doesn’t the provider commission change the result?
Your provider’s rate stays the same whichever Shopify plan you’re on. It raises the total but not the difference between plans. Enter your own rate anyway so the budget is right.
Should I change the exchange rate?
For Turkish lira we fill in the Central Bank of Türkiye’s selling rate automatically. If your card or bank applies a different rate, you can change it. If you sell in dollars, choose USD and the rate no longer applies.
How should I choose growth rates?
The defaults are only a starting point. Enter your past revenue growth and your own exchange rate expectation. Trying a few scenarios beats relying on one guess.
Is Plus worth it even when it costs more?
Price isn’t the only factor. A fully customisable checkout, B2B or many inventory locations can make Plus necessary. Tick them in section four and the recommendation changes accordingly.
Can you see the numbers I enter?
No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser. Your numbers reach us only if you send the contact form; “Let’s discuss this result” just writes a summary into the form, which you can review and edit before sending.
