What the result means
The result estimates creator commission after refunds and shows seller net revenue after commission and platform fees. It excludes product cost, shipping, and ad spend.
Net sales = Gross sales × (1 − Refund rate); Seller net revenue = Net sales − Creator commission − Platform fees
For a complete profit model, subtract cost of goods, shipping, fulfillment, discounts, returns processing, and advertising.
Example calculation
$50,000 gross sales with 8% refunds produces $46,000 net sales. At 15% commission and 6% platform fees, creator commission is $6,900.
Tips for better results
- Model refunds before setting affiliate rates.
- Protect margin on low-priced products.
- Track commission by creator and SKU.
- Separate revenue from profit.
