Frequently Asked Questions
Everything Shopify merchants want to know about fees in 2026.
How much does Shopify cost per month in 2026?+
Shopify offers three core plans in 2026: Basic at $39/month with 2.9% + $0.30 credit card fees, Shopify at $105/month with 2.6% + $0.25, and Advanced at $399/month with 2.4% + $0.25. Shopify Plus is custom-priced for enterprise merchants and starts around $2,000/month depending on revenue volume.
What are Shopify credit card fees?+
Shopify Payments credit card fees in 2026: Basic plan — 2.9% + $0.30 per online order. Shopify plan — 2.6% + $0.25. Advanced plan — 2.4% + $0.25. Shopify Plus — 2.15% + $0.25. In-person card reader rates are lower (starting at 2.5% + $0.05 per transaction). International cards and currency conversion carry additional surcharges.
What is a Shopify transaction fee?+
If you use a third-party payment provider (like Stripe, PayPal, or Authorize.net) instead of Shopify Payments, Shopify charges an additional transaction fee on every order: Basic plan 2.0%, Shopify plan 1.0%, Advanced plan 0.5%. Using Shopify Payments eliminates this transaction fee entirely, which is why most merchants switch to it.
How do I calculate my Shopify profit?+
Net Profit = Total Revenue − Subscription Fee − Credit Card Fees − Third-Party Transaction Fees (if applicable) − App Spend − Ad Spend − Product Costs (COGS) − Shipping Costs − Other Fixed Costs. Our free Shopify fee calculator above computes this instantly with adjustable plan settings and shows your margin percentage.
Which Shopify plan is right for me?+
Basic ($39/mo): ideal for new sellers just getting started. Shopify ($105/mo): best for established stores needing lower credit card fees, professional reporting, and more staff accounts. Advanced ($399/mo): for high-volume sellers needing advanced analytics, international pricing, and the lowest 2.4% credit card rates. Plus ($2,000+/mo): enterprise brands with custom workflows. Use our calculator to compare total costs across plans with your actual revenue.
What is my Shopify break-even point?+
Break-even order value = Monthly Fixed Costs ÷ (1 − Variable Margin%). Fixed costs include your subscription, app spend, and monthly ad spend. Variable margin is your average order value minus product cost, shipping, and credit card fees per order. Our calculator shows both your break-even order value and the monthly revenue needed to cover all costs.
Are there hidden Shopify fees?+
Beyond subscription and credit card fees, common costs include: transaction fees from third-party payment providers (avoided with Shopify Payments), premium app subscriptions (most useful apps cost $5–$99/month), Shopify shipping label costs passed to you, Shopify POS Pro fees ($89/location/month for advanced), theme purchases ($0–$350), domain registration ($14–$29/year), email/SMS marketing credits, and credit card chargebacks ($15 each). Factor these into your margin.
