    Shopify fees by plan in 2026

    Shopify doesn't take a commission when you use Shopify Payments. You pay a monthly plan and a card processing fee on each order. These are the US rates for online card payments:

    PlanMonthly priceOnline card rateExtra fee without Shopify Payments
    Basic$39 ($29 billed yearly)2.9% + $0.302%
    Grow$105 ($79 billed yearly)2.7% + $0.301%
    Advanced$399 ($299 billed yearly)2.5% + $0.300.6%

    Starter ($5 a month) is for selling through social links and charges a much higher fee per sale. Shopify Plus starts at about $2,300 a month. Card rates differ outside the US; yours are under Settings > Payments.

    Worked example: a $40 order on Shopify Basic

    LineAmount
    Payment fee (2.9% of $40 + $0.30)$1.46
    Item cost, label, packaging and ads$16.70
    Net profit before monthly costs$21.84 (54.6% margin)

    That beats the same order on Etsy, but leaves out the monthly plan and the cost of bringing buyers to your store.

    Use it as a Shopify pricing calculator

    Add your monthly plan and apps, divided by orders per month, in Plan & apps per order. A $39 plan plus $36 in apps is $75 a month: $1.25 per order at 60 orders, $3.75 at 20. To work backwards from the margin you want, use the target price calculator.

    When a higher Shopify plan pays for itself

    Grow lowers the card rate from 2.9% to 2.7%, saving $0.20 on every $100. With monthly billing it costs $66 more than Basic, so you need about $33,000 a month in online card sales before it pays off; with yearly billing the gap is $50, or about $25,000 in sales.

    Frequently asked questions

    How are Shopify fees calculated in 2026?

    With Shopify Payments in the US, each online order pays a card fee of 2.9% + $0.30 on Basic, 2.7% + $0.30 on Grow or 2.5% + $0.30 on Advanced, charged on the full amount the customer pays including shipping. On top of that you pay the monthly plan: $39 for Basic, or $29 a month billed yearly. If you use an outside payment provider, Shopify adds 2%, 1% or 0.6% depending on the plan.

    Does Shopify take a percentage of sales?

    Not with Shopify Payments: you pay the card fee and your plan. With another payment provider, Shopify adds a fee of 2%, 1% or 0.6% depending on your plan.

    What's the difference between the payment fee and the transaction fee?
