Understand the dashboard

Fee is the total costs that the Developer must pay or be deducted before receiving money into the bank account. Fee structure includes:

  • Revenue Share: Revenue share paid to Shopify.

  • Operational Fees: Transaction processing fees or registration fees (if any).

  • Taxes: Taxes applied according to local laws (VAT/GST) that Shopify collects on behalf or the Developer must pay.

Shopify Fee Policy (Latest Policy)

According to the latest regulations (applied to Shopify App Store):

  • 0% Revenue Share: For the first $1,000,000 USD revenue earned each calendar year (annually).

  • 15% Revenue Share: Applied to revenue exceeding $1,000,000 in that year.

  • Registration Fee: $19 USD (paid once when creating a Partner account, usually not counted in monthly operational metrics).

Where Revenue Share is calculated cumulatively by year (Year-to-date):

  • If Total Revenue (YTD) <= $1,000,000: Revenue Share = 0.

  • If Total Revenue (YTD) > $1,000,000: Revenue Share = 15% * (Revenue of this month). Note: This logic needs to reset to 0 on January 01 every year.

The “Total Fee” chart visualizes the daily fluctuations of your total fees over the selected time period (Day, Week, Month), with a percentage comparison against the previous 31-day period, helping you monitor cost trends relative to revenue.

The breakout table provides a granular daily view of the total fees incurred, allowing for precise auditing of daily expenses

The panels below offer a quick historical comparison of your total fees against your performance from 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months ago to track cost evolution as your business scales.
