Print-on-Demand (POD) Profit Calculator
Gross sales are a vanity number — a print-on-demand sale is only worth what's left after the base cost, the fulfillment shipping, and the platform's cut. This free calculator nets one listing for you: enter your sale price, any shipping, the base cost, the platform fee, and any flat fee, and it returns your true net profit per sale and your margin. It handles both platform models — for a royalty platform like Amazon Merch or Redbubble, enter your royalty as the sale price and leave the cost fields at zero. Use it right here in your browser, or download the starter spreadsheet to keep.

This nets one listing on one platform. It doesn't do a design catalog, a per-platform comparison, a profit-per-design rollup, or a pricing planner (the full workbook does), and nothing is saved. Pre-filled with an example — replace it with your own. Every figure is illustrative; a business reference, not financial, accounting, or tax advice — confirm your platform's current rates.

What it does
- Nets one listing after base cost, fulfillment shipping, the platform fee, and any flat per-order fee — your true profit, not gross sales.
- Handles both platform models: integrated (Etsy, Shopify) and royalty (Amazon Merch, Redbubble) — enter the royalty as the sale price and zero the costs.
- Shows the net profit per sale and the margin, and warns you when a listing quietly loses money.
- Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere, and nothing is saved.
Own it, don't rent it
Want to see which designs and platforms actually earn?
This free tool nets one listing on one platform. The full workbook nets every listing, rolls profit up by design across every product and platform (with best-seller and dead-design flags), compares platforms side by side, and back-solves your price from a target profit or margin — a 7-tab workbook you keep (Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice) plus five guides.
A one-time purchase you keep and reuse across every design and platform — the structured workbook between a blank spreadsheet and a rented monthly analytics app.
A business reference, not financial, accounting, or tax advice. Every figure is illustrative — base costs, fees, and royalties vary by product, size, print area, region, and platform, so enter your own and confirm your platform's current rates.
