Shopify Profit Calculator (India)

Shopify Payments isn't available in India, so every Indian store pays Shopify an extra fee on top of its payment gateway — but only on prepaid orders. This calculator adds your plan, that fee, gateway charges with GST and your apps to the real costs of selling online (COD, RTO, returns, shipping, ads) and shows which Shopify plan is cheapest at your volume.

FAQ
What does Shopify cost in India?

Billed yearly, Basic is ₹1,499/month, Grow ₹5,599/month and Advanced ₹22,680/month (₹1,994, ₹7,447 and ₹30,164 billed monthly). On top of that you pay a third-party payment fee on prepaid orders, your gateway's fee and any apps.

What is Shopify's third-party transaction fee in India?

Because Shopify Payments isn't offered in India, Shopify charges 2% on Basic, 1% on Grow and 0.6% on Advanced for every sale through an external gateway such as Razorpay or Cashfree — on top of the gateway's own fee.

Does Shopify charge the transaction fee on COD orders?

No. Shopify doesn't charge third-party transaction fees on manual payment methods, and Cash on Delivery is one. Only prepaid orders pay it — which is why the calculator applies it to your prepaid share alone.

When is it worth upgrading from Basic to Grow?

When the fee you save beats the higher subscription. Billed yearly, Grow costs ₹4,100 more a month but charges 1% less, so it pays for itself once your prepaid sales pass about ₹4,10,000 a month.

What does Razorpay charge on Shopify?

Razorpay's standard rate is 2% per successful domestic transaction plus 18% GST on that fee — about 2.36% in total. Enter your own gateway's rate (before GST) in the payment gateway field; the calculator adds the GST.
