How do I compare fees across platforms with the Profit Calculator?

How do I compare profit across platforms with the Smart Profit Analyzer?

Written by Shane Jordan

To compare fees across platforms, go to Tools > Profit calculator, open the Compare Fees tab, and enter a sale price. Flippd lists every enabled platform with its fee, what you keep, and your margin, sorted lowest fee first.

Step-by-Step

  1. Go to Tools > Profit calculator

  2. Tap the Compare Fees tab

  3. Enter your expected sale price

  4. See one row per platform showing:

  • Fee -- What that platform would charge on the sale

  • You Keep -- The sale price minus fees

  • Margin -- The percentage of the sale price you keep

  1. The cheapest platform is marked with a LOWEST badge

How It's Different from the Calculator Tab

  • Calculator tab -- Enter your cost, sale price, shipping, and one platform to see net profit, ROI, and margin for that platform

  • Compare Fees tab -- Enter only a sale price to see fees side by side for every platform at once

The Calculator tab also watches out for you: if another platform would earn you more than $0.50 more net profit on the same numbers, a Better Option Available banner appears naming that platform.

Good to Know

  • Only platforms that are turned on under Settings > Customize Data > Platforms are compared

  • Each row uses that platform's own fee structure (percentage, fixed fee, payment processing, tiers)

  • Use this when deciding where to list a cross-listable item
