How this calculator works
UK sellers often price VAT-inclusive products, so the profit question is not only the platform fee but the amount left after tax reserve and fulfillment.
Use the extra percentage field for VAT reserve, affiliate commission or another percentage-based cost.
Gross Order = Sale Price + Buyer-Paid Shipping
Base Fee = Gross Order × Platform Fee % + Fixed Fee
Extra Cost = Gross Order × Extra %
Profit = Gross Order − Fees − Product Cost − Seller Shipping
Default assumptions
| Input | Default |
|---|---|
| Sale price | 30 |
| Product cost | 10 |
| Base fee | 6% + 0.3 |
| VAT reserve or affiliate commission | 20% |
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this calculator remove VAT automatically?
It does not assume one legal VAT treatment. Use the extra percentage field as a VAT reserve or pair this page with the VAT calculator.
Why is UK TikTok profit lower than the listed commission?
Because seller-paid shipping, product cost, VAT reserve and affiliate commission can matter more than the platform commission alone.
Can I change the commission rate?
Yes. All rates are editable so you can match your TikTok Shop category and current seller settings.
