Most handmade sellers target 40-60%.

Cost-plus pricing

Cost-plus pricing starts with your total cost and adds a percentage on top. The problem: most sellers confuse markup (on cost) with margin (on revenue). This calculator uses margin so your numbers match what you see in Shopify and Etsy dashboards.

Margin traps to avoid

  • Forgetting packaging and inserts
  • Ignoring platform fees (Etsy, Amazon)
  • Not accounting for returns or damaged units
  • Setting price once and never revisiting

Psychological pricing tips

Prices ending in .99 or .95 consistently outperform round numbers in conversion tests. This calculator suggests the nearest .99 ceiling price above your required price so you capture the psychological benefit without leaving money on the table.
