Stripe Fee Calculator for Canada
Estimate Stripe-style card processing costs, amount received, effective fee rate, and profit without saving inputs to a server. Inputs stay in your browser and are not sent to a server.
Stripe fee data for this country is review-gated in this MVP. For the most useful estimate, turn on custom fee override and enter the percentage and fixed fee from your Stripe pricing page or dashboard.
Canada currency and assumptions
Canadian sellers may need to consider CAD settlement, provincial tax handling, and cross-border sales to US or international buyers.
Canada pages use CAD. GST, HST, PST, or QST treatment can vary by province and marketplace role.
How seller fees are usually calculated
Card processors often use a percentage fee, a fixed fee, or both.
International cards, currency conversion, payment method, disputes, and custom pricing can affect the final charge.
Stripe pricing can differ by country, product, contract, and payment method, so unverified rules are not treated as official.
Formula explanation
Estimated amount received = gross sale amount - processing fees. Profit mode then subtracts product cost, shipping cost, and ad cost.
Reverse fee mode estimates the customer charge needed to reach a target received amount. Platform comparison mode applies the same sale inputs across PayPal, Stripe, Etsy, and eBay.
Example calculation
Canada sample: enter CAD 100.00 customer pays, CAD 12.00 shipping charged, CAD 35.00 product cost, and a manually checked fee amount if available.
Sample values are for explaining the math only. They are not official platform fee rates unless the source status on the page marks the matching rule as verified.
Use custom fee override when your Stripe dashboard or official pricing page shows a different percentage, fixed fee, international fee, currency conversion fee, product setup, or custom pricing arrangement.
Custom fee override
Use custom fee override if your Stripe dashboard or official pricing page gives you a current percentage, fixed fee, international fee, or conversion fee for the sale you want to model.
If the selected source data has not been manually verified, the result card asks for a custom fee rate instead of showing zero fees as a real estimate.
Custom override supports percentage fee, fixed fee, extra international percentage, currency conversion percentage, and an additional manual fee amount.

FAQ
How are seller fees calculated?
Stripe fees are usually estimated from the gross sale amount, fixed charges, optional international or conversion charges, and any custom fee amount you enter.
Why can the actual fee differ from this estimate?
Actual fees can differ because platforms may use account-specific pricing, card type, buyer location, category, dispute, refund, tax, subscription, promotion, or custom pricing rules.
Does this calculator include international fees?
International fees depend on card origin, seller country, and pricing terms. The calculator only applies them when reviewed data is available or when you enter a custom fee amount.
Does this calculator include currency conversion?
Currency conversion is not assumed by default. Add a custom fee amount if your Stripe transaction includes conversion or cross-border charges you have verified.
Does this calculator include VAT or sales tax?
GST/HST/PST/QST is not treated as verified fee data for Canada. Do not use the result for GST/HST/PST/QST filing. Check CRA, provincial sources, or professional advice.
Can I enter my own custom fee rate?
Yes. Turn on custom fee override to enter a percentage fee, fixed fee, extra international fee, currency conversion fee, additional manual fee, and note.
