🔄 How to Calculate What to Charge to Receive an Exact Net Amount (Shopify Reverse Formula)

Target Payout Engineering & Customer Invoice Pass-Through

Open Reverse Calculator →

If you want to receive an exact net amount (e.g. $1,000 net) after Shopify deducts its 2.9% + $5 processing fee, you cannot simply add 2.9% to your price. Because the processor percentage is deducted from the higher invoice total, adding a simple markup leaves you short. You must use the official Reverse Fee Formula:

Required Invoice Amount = (Desired Net Payout + Fixed Fee) / (1 - Fee Percentage Decimal)
Example for $1,000 Net: ($1,000 + $5) / (1 - 0.0290) = $1035.02

Regulatory Context & Calculation Methodology

Localized Regulatory Context (Mexico)

En México, las tiendas Shopify que integran pasarelas de pago externas (como Mercado Pago o PayPal) pagan una comisión adicional de transacción a Shopify (+2.0% en Basic, +1.0% en Shopify, +0.6% en Advanced) además de las comisiones del procesador.

How the Shopify Mexico Calculation Works

When processing a transaction on Shopify in Mexico, the total fee is computed using a combination of a fixed transaction charge ($5) and a percentage fee (2.9%).

Total Fee = (Gross Sale × 2.9%) + $5
Net Payout = Gross Sale - Total Fee
Effective Rate (%) = (Total Fee / Gross Sale) × 100
