Break-Even CAC and Order Contribution Calculator

Enter what you already know about an order. This works out the part that is simple arithmetic, tells you which shipping channels actually reach your market and how long they take, and is honest about the lines nobody can price without seeing your product.

Transit windows come from our published shipping times.

Working currency

Use one currency throughout. No exchange rate is assumed.

Chargeable-weight check (optional)

Actual packed weight (kg)

Packed parcel size (cm, L×W×H)

The packed box, not the product. This is what decides billable weight.

Service or carrier rule

Named rules only, as published mid-2026 in our volumetric weight guide. Economy and cosmetics vary by market, so those show a range rather than one number.

Why this does not show you a shipping price

Because an honest one cannot be produced from these fields alone. Freight is charged on billable weight, which is the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight, so a light bulky parcel prices like a heavy one. The rate then depends on the channel, the destination's duty and tax treatment, and whether the parcel carries batteries, liquids, powders or branding. Any number shown here without that information would be a guess you might build a business on.

What we can do is remove the guesswork from everything else, so the quote conversation starts with real figures instead of "it depends". If you want the shape of the full calculation first, how pricing works sets out every cost driver. If the decision is who should run fulfilment, use the self-fulfilment vs 3PL vs agent calculator.
