How to use the Shopify store credit calculator
Start with the fee a member pays, then estimate how much store credit they will redeem and what that redeemed credit costs at your gross margin.
Membership fee
The amount collected from each member. This is the top-line value before store credit redemption.
Store credit amount
The credit issued to the member as a signup credit, recurring credit drop, cashback reward or fee-to-credit benefit.
Expected redemption
The share of issued credit you expect members to redeem. Use conservative assumptions until actual redemption data is available.
Gross margin
Margin helps estimate the real cost of redeemed credit. A redeemed $25 credit does not usually cost $25 if your product margin covers part of the order.
