Shopify store cost calculator

Add your plan, theme, domain, apps and payment fees to see what you pay up front, every month and over the first year.

How much does it cost to start a Shopify store?

A Shopify store costs more than the plan price. Up front you pay for a theme, a domain and any setup help; every month there's the plan and your apps; and every order carries payment fees. The calculator groups these and shows the total for the first year.

What is the minimum cost of a Shopify store?

With a free theme and free app plans, the minimum is your plan, your domain and the payment fees on each order.

Do I need a paid theme?

No. Shopify's free themes are enough for a professional store. Paid themes are a one-off purchase and usually include more ready-made sections and features.

Are taxes included?

No. Depending on where you are based, VAT or sales tax may be added to Shopify, theme and app charges.

How accurate is the first-year total?

It is as accurate as the numbers you enter. Payment fees depend on your real sales, and app costs often change as your store grows.
