WooCommerce itself doesn't charge a percentage fee on sales, but the payment gateway you connect — Stripe, PayPal, WooCommerce Payments, Square, or another processor — does. Every transaction is reduced by a percentage plus a small fixed fee before the remainder reaches your bank account.
This calculator lets you enter your order amount and chosen gateway to instantly estimate that fee and see your real net payout, so you can price products accurately and forecast revenue with confidence.
Add the total order value exactly as it will appear at checkout, including tax and shipping if the gateway charges on the full total.
Choose Stripe, PayPal, WooCommerce Payments, Square, or enter a custom rate that matches your merchant agreement.
The calculator applies the percentage and fixed fee, then shows your estimated net payout and optional profit.
Rates below are commonly published standard rates for domestic card transactions. Your actual rate can vary based on country, card type, volume, and negotiated pricing — always confirm current rates with your payment provider.
| Gateway | Typical Rate |
|---|---|
| Stripe | 2.9% + $0.30 |
| WooCommerce Payments | 2.9% + $0.30 |
| PayPal (domestic) | 3.49% + $0.49 |
| Square Online | 2.6% + $0.30 |
| Authorize.net | 2.9% + $0.30 |
| International cards | +1% to +2% additional |
Build fees into your pricing. Factor in your gateway's percentage and fixed fee when setting product prices so your margin stays intact after every sale.
Watch fixed fees on small orders. A flat $0.30–$0.49 fee has a much bigger impact on a $5 order than a $50 order — consider a minimum order value if you sell low-priced items.
Compare gateways periodically. Rates and features differ between Stripe, PayPal, and others — occasionally re-check whether a different processor better fits your order volume and country.
Account for international sales separately. Cross-border and currency conversion fees can add 1–2% on top of the standard rate, so factor this in if you sell globally.
WooCommerce is a free, self-hosted plugin and does not charge a percentage fee on sales. The fee comes from the payment gateway you connect, such as Stripe, PayPal, or WooCommerce Payments.
Rates are similar across major gateways, generally around 2.6%–2.9% plus a small fixed fee for domestic cards. PayPal's standard rate tends to run slightly higher. Exact pricing depends on your country, volume, and account type.
