Shopify profit analytics
Analyse contribution margin per Shopify product
Set your purchase prices, payment fees, shipping costs and ad spend against revenue. The item analysis shows which products make money after these costs and which only bring revenue.
- Analysis by SKU and product group
- Maintain purchase prices by CSV or directly in the dashboard
Shopify connectors
Keep marketplace orders from Shopify apps apart
When orders from OTTO, Amazon or TikTok Shop reach your Shopify through an app such as magnalister or Marketplace Connect, the profitkonsole detects each connection itself. They are hidden at first so nothing is counted twice. For each connection you decide whether it counts in Shopify or appears as a channel of its own in the multichannel dashboard.
- Connections such as magnalister, Marketplace Connect or TikTok Shop detected automatically
- Per connection: hide it, count it in Shopify or show it as its own channel
- A warning when a marketplace is also connected directly
Payment fees
Include Shopify Payments, PayPal and Klarna
Shopify Payments fees come from your payout data. For external payment providers you store your own fee rates. That way you can see which costs were booked and which are calculated from your inputs.
- Fees by the payment method used
- Include additional Shopify transaction fees separately
Shipping and refunds
Shopify refunds: which costs stay with you
Refunded revenue comes in from your Shopify data. On a refund, Shopify Payments keeps the payment fee, so it stays in your calculation as a cost. Add your outbound and return shipping costs to see what stays with you after a refund.
- Customer-paid shipping taken from the order
- Your own package price, with exceptions per shipping method
- Pick & pack and returns handling per package and item
Shopify ad spend
Google Ads and Meta Ads in your Shopify reporting
Review ad spend alongside your store's result. Product-level data and allocation rules decide which costs go into the item analysis; spend that is not allocated stays in the result of your store.
- Google Ads and Meta Ads through your own account connections
- Ad spend taken from campaign reports
Reports
Export your Shopify figures to Excel
Download the daily dashboard, product performance, P&L, orders and purchase prices for any period as an Excel or CSV file. They are the same figures as in profitkonsole.
- Five reports for any period, as Excel or CSV
- With Multi Channel you see all your marketplaces together in one overview

How does profitkonsole complement Shopify Analytics?
Shopify charges no sales commission like a marketplace, but external payment providers can trigger an additional transaction fee. Shopify has its own profit reports using product costs. profitkonsole combines payment fees, your own shipping costs and recorded ad spend in its contribution margin calculation. You can review Shopify and other connected sales channels in the same application.
Connect Shopify and complete your cost inputs
Start by approving access in your Shopify admin. Add purchase prices, shipping costs and rates for external payment providers. profitkonsole detects your Shopify plan; you enter the plan cost once per store under platform fees. You record additional transaction fees and app costs as indirect expenses.

Still have questions? Send us an email
How do I connect my Shopify store?
Approve access in your Shopify admin, then complete your cost inputs in profitkonsole. Uninstalling the app ends the connection.
Can I connect Google Ads and Meta Ads?
Yes. Connect your Google Ads and Meta Ads accounts to include advertising costs in your Shopify reports. Cost allocation depends on the supplied product data and your allocation rules.
I bring orders from OTTO, Amazon or TikTok Shop into my Shopify through an app such as magnalister. How does that count?
profitkonsole detects each of these connections and hides their orders at first so nothing is counted twice. Under Shopify › Connections you decide per connection: hide it, count it in Shopify or show it as a channel of its own. Marketplace fees are not in Shopify, so it is best to connect OTTO, Amazon, Kaufland and eBay directly to see them with all fees.
Are PayPal and Klarna fees included?
Yes, at the rates you enter per payment method. Shopify itself does not bill external payment providers. profitkonsole takes Shopify Payments fees from your payout data.
Does profitkonsole replace my Shopify bookkeeping?
No. profitkonsole is a contribution margin analysis for decisions on products, prices and advertising. For bookkeeping, your invoices and the payout reports from Shopify and your payment providers remain the reference.
Which costs do I need to enter?
Check purchase prices, your shipping costs and fee rates for external payment providers. Add ongoing expenses and additional fees that are not imported automatically.
Are all advertising costs assigned to a product?
No. Allocation depends on the advertising data and your rules. Spend without a product assignment remains visible in the result of your store.
What does a second Shopify store cost?
Each Shopify store is a separate seller account. One store is included in both plans; each additional store is an add-on account at €9 a month, or €7 a month on yearly billing (€84 a year), plus VAT. profitkonsole shows you the price before you connect the account. Once you confirm, it is charged pro rata from the day you connect it until the end of your billing period. During the trial you can connect several accounts for free; if you subscribe afterwards, they are billed along with your plan. If you disconnect an account, its add-on account ends at the end of the billing period. You can view your stores separately or combined, and you maintain purchase prices once per SKU for all stores.
I ship through a fulfilment provider. How do I add pick & pack costs?
Under Pick & pack you enter what your provider charges for picking and packing: per package, per item and, if you like, a separate price for the first items of an order. Returns handling per return and item comes on top. Each rate applies from a date. In the profit and loss statement, pick & pack has its own line under shipping costs.
What does profitkonsole cost for Shopify?
If you only sell on Shopify, the One marketplace plan costs €49 a month, or €39 a month on yearly billing. If you sell on several channels, Multi Channel covers all marketplaces for €79 or €63 a month. All prices plus VAT. You can try it free for 14 days first, no credit card required. All details are on the pricing page.
How far back does the data go, and how up to date is it?
After you connect Shopify, profitkonsole loads your data up to two years back. profitkonsole fetches orders every 30 minutes, payouts and payment fees every hour and Google Ads and Meta Ads twice a day.
