Figures are indicative and based on what you enter. The model is linear and does not account for compound growth.
How to use it
- One-time investment: the upfront cost of building the website or system behind your own channel.
- Savings + extra profit / month: the marketplace fees (commission, payment, and service fees) you no longer pay, plus the extra profit from selling direct.
- Operating cost / month: hosting, domain, tools, and monthly maintenance.
The payback period is rounded up to whole months. The model is linear and does not account for compound growth. If operating cost matches or exceeds your savings, the tool reports no payback point yet. Figures are indicative and based on what you enter.
