What is the Profit Calculator?
The Profit Calculator, currently available to Etsy merchants, is a helpful tool that breaks down various costs and helps you optimize profits. Afterward, use the calculations to update your pricing table and publish the product to your store to sync the changes.
Note
The Profit Calculator doesn’t automatically update prices in your pricing table; it functions as a guide. You’ll need to manually note the desired retail price and input it into the pricing table.
- Price & profit goal: Enter your desired sale price or profit for the product.
- Item costs: Select the size and/or color variant to calculate the price for each variant. Larger sizes of certain products may incur higher costs; use the Profit Calculator to determine the desired retail price per variant. You can also activate the free shipping toggle, which includes shipping costs in the retail price calculation.
- Sales channel fees: Standard fees from the chosen sales channel will be applied. If applicable, additional features can be activated, updating the costs shown in the Summary section.
- Summary: A dynamic breakdown of all relevant costs that updates in real-time as you make adjustments in the Profit Calculator.
As you make adjustments, you can view the default product cost (Printify Catalog cost) by clicking on the link below the Summary section:
