Use this pricing calculator before publishing a new product, launching a promotion, or changing price after ad costs move. The useful answer is not one perfect price; it is the range where cost, fees, shipping, refunds, discounts, and target contribution margin still leave room to operate.
Inputs
What to enter
Enter product cost, shipping, payment fee, platform fee, ad-cost allowance, discount plan, and target margin. Keep one scenario conservative and one scenario aggressive.
Outputs
What you get back
The calculator returns suggested selling price, margin pressure, discount impact, and a clearer view of whether a product can afford paid traffic.
Formula
Core rule
Price must cover product cost, fulfillment cost, payment and platform fees, expected refunds, promotion discount, and contribution profit. If one input changes, rerun the price instead of guessing.
Example
Example result
If landed cost is $18, fees are $4, target contribution profit is $16, and a 10% discount is planned, a $39 price may not leave enough room. A $45 to $49 range may be safer if conversion does not drop sharply.
