Quick answer

Dropshipping profit = selling price − supplier price − supplier shipping − payment fee − return losses − ad cost per order. Selling at ₹1,299 with ₹530 of product and shipping, ₹26 payment fee, ₹15 return losses and ₹300 ad cost leaves ₹428 per order. Ads can cost up to ₹728 an order, a ROAS of 1.78, before you lose money.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter your price and the supplier's product and shipping cost.
  2. Add payment fee % and ad cost per order from your ads manager.
  3. Add your return or RTO rate and loss per return.

Formula

Profit = price − supplier price − supplier shipping − payment fee − return losses − ad cost per order

Break-even ad cost = profit before ads; break-even ROAS = price ÷ profit before ads

Supplier prices and ad costs change. Recheck the numbers before you scale ads.
