Free Dropshipping Profit Calculator
The per-order truth: what's left of the selling price after product cost, shipping, payment fees, and ads - and the break-even ROAS your campaigns must beat before scaling means anything. Any currency, free, no sign-up.
"Other" is where honesty lives: app subscriptions per order, refund allowance, transaction FX spread, packaging inserts. Skipping them is how a "profitable" store loses money.
If your ads deliver less than the break-even ROAS, every sale costs you money - scale fixes nothing, it just loses it faster.

Dropshipping Profit FAQ
How do I calculate dropshipping profit?
Per order: selling price − product cost − shipping − payment fees − other per-order costs − ad cost per order. A $39.99 product costing $9.50 with $4.50 shipping, 2.9% fees ($1.16), $1 of other costs, and a $12 CPA nets $11.83 - a 29.6% margin. The calculator runs it live and shows the two numbers that decide everything: break-even CPA and break-even ROAS.
What is break-even ROAS and why does it matter?
Break-even ROAS = selling price ÷ margin before ads. If your product keeps $23.83 per order before ad spend on a $39.99 price, the break-even ROAS is 1.68 - every ad campaign returning less than 1.68x its spend loses money on every sale. Judge campaigns against this number, not against 'we made sales'.
What margin should a dropshipping product have?
Aim for at least 55-70% margin before ads (price minus product, shipping, and fees), because ads routinely eat 20-40% of the price. Products with thin pre-ad margins leave no room for the CPA to fluctuate - and CPAs always fluctuate.
What costs do dropshippers forget?
Refunds and chargebacks (budget 2-5% of revenue), currency conversion spreads on supplier payments, app subscriptions spread per order, transaction fixed fees on small orders, and reshipping lost packages. Put an honest number in 'other per-order costs' - the store that ignores them is profitable on paper and broke in the bank account.
How is this different from a Growpins Ledger account?
This models one product. Growpins Ledger records the real orders, expenses, and refunds as they happen, so you can see actual profit per month instead of spreadsheet profit - plus invoices and receipts when you sell B2B or need documentation.
Spreadsheet profit isn't bank-account profit
Growpins Ledger records real orders, expenses, and refunds as they happen, so month-end profit is a report, not a reconstruction - built by the team behind Growpins, founded by Dokun Bamigboye. Free tier, no card required.
