Formula

  1. Orders = monthly revenue ÷ average order value
  2. Processing = revenue × card rate + orders × per-order fee
  3. Third-party fee = revenue × the plan’s fee, only with a non-Shopify processor
  4. Total = subscription + processing + third-party fee

FAQ

When should I upgrade from Basic to Grow?+

Grow’s lower card rate saves 0.2 percent of revenue. At US prices billed monthly, that covers the extra $66 subscription once you sell about $33,000 a month through Shopify Payments.

What does Shopify charge for a third-party payment processor?+

Shopify adds a fee on every sale that does not go through Shopify Payments: 2 percent on Basic, 1 percent on Grow, 0.6 percent on Advanced and 0.2 percent on Plus. That is on top of what your processor charges.

Is Shopify Plus worth it?+

On fees alone, rarely below a few hundred thousand dollars a month. Brands usually move to Plus for checkout customisation, automation and wholesale features rather than lower processing costs.

Are these prices current?+

They are Shopify’s published US prices. Plus is a starting price and is often negotiated. Check shopify.com/pricing before you decide.
