The Mathematics of Shopify Pricing: When to Upgrade Your Plan

Shopify plans offer discounted credit card rates as you move up tiers. At certain sales volumes, processing rate savings outweigh the higher subscription cost!

1. Shopify 2026 Plan Overview

Basic Shopify ($39/mo): 2.9% + 30¢ online rate | 2.0% 3rd-party fee. Ideal for sales under $33,000/mo.
Shopify ($105/mo): 2.7% + 30¢ online rate | 1.0% 3rd-party fee.
Advanced Shopify ($399/mo): 2.5% + 30¢ online rate | 0.6% 3rd-party fee.

2. The Exact Break-Even Math Formula

    Cost Difference: $105 – $39 = $66/month

    Rate Discount: 2.9% – 2.7% = 0.2% (0.002)

    Break-Even Sales Volume = $66 / 0.002 = $33,000 / month
