Shopify Profit Basics: From AOV to Net Margin
Understand your unit economics
Your profit per order is driven by realized revenue (AOV after discounts and returns) minus variable costs (COGS, payment processing %, processing fixed fee, shipping/3PL, ad cost per order) and fixed allocations (platform plan and apps divided by orders). Get these inputs right, and the path to profitability becomes clear.
Levers to improve margin
- Increase AOV with bundles/upsells while keeping conversion stable.
- Reduce COGS via supplier negotiation or packaging optimizations.
- Lower shipping/3PL with better rates or dimensional weight control.
- Improve paid efficiency — spend where contribution stays positive.
- Reduce returns with clear sizing, better PDPs, and QA.
Ad spend that scales
Ad budget is converted into ad cost per order by dividing by monthly orders. As you scale, maintain a contribution margin target (e.g., > 20% after variable costs) to ensure growth doesn’t erode profitability.

Shopify Profit & eCommerce FAQs
How are payment processing fees calculated
We apply a % fee on realized revenue and add a fixed fee per order. Adjust the chips to match your Shopify plan or gateway.
How do ads affect profit
We divide your monthly ad budget by your monthly orders to get ad cost per order. This is included in variable costs before calculating profit per order and margin.
How is break-even AOV computed
We solve for the AOV at which realized revenue equals total per-order costs (variable + allocated fixed costs). At this point, profit per order is $0.
Can I model subscription orders
Yes — use a higher orders/month and lower ad budget allocation if paid spend is minimal for recurring customers. Consider lower returns and shipping for consolidated shipments.
Where do platform and app fees show up
They are treated as fixed monthly costs and allocated across orders (platform + apps ÷ orders) to estimate a per-order impact.
