Charges

Your bill shows a variety of charges depending on where your store is located and what services your store uses. Shopify bill charges show up on your credit card statement as:Shopify * < bill number >.

Subscription fees

Subscription fees depend on yourplan and on the subscription billing period.

TheBillingpage of your Shopify admin provides a list of your paid subscriptions that have recurring charges. The list includes your Shopify plan subscription and any other subscriptions such as your app subscriptions. App subscriptions that are currently on a free trial are also listed, but apps that are on a free subscription plan are not.

In addition, you can manage your paid subscriptions from this list. If you have multiple stores, then you can only manage subscriptions one store at a time.

Shipping label fees

After you buy a shipping label through Shopify Shipping, the cost is billed through your Shopify account. Any shipping insurance that you purchase or shipping adjustments that a shipping carrier charges you are also billed through your Shopify account.

Shipping fees are charged separately from your Shopify subscription. If you cancel a shipping label, then its cost is refunded as a credit towards future label purchases. The cost isn't reimbursed directly to your Shopify account.

Each country has different tax rules for shipping fees. To check how your country charges taxes on shipping fees, refer toTaxes on shipping labels.

If you reach your dailybilling thresholdwhile buying shipping labels, then you can continue to buy shipping labels equal to 10% of your threshold amount while a bill is generated. You can check your account's threshold amount in theBillssection of theBillingpage in your Shopify admin. Any purchases made at this time are included in your next bill. To learn more about how you're billed for shipping labels,contact Shopify support.

Third-party transaction fees

Third-party transaction fees are charges that apply to each transaction when you use a third-party payment provider to take customer payments. The transaction fees cover the cost for Shopify to integrate with external payment providers, and vary depending on the plan that you choose.

When you useShopify Payments, you aren't charged third-party transaction fees for orders that are processed through Shopify Payments, Shop Pay, Shop Pay Installments, and Paypal Express, and you aren't charged transaction fees on manual payment methods such as cash, cash on delivery (COD), and bank transfers.

Shopify Plus merchants who useShopify Paymentspay no transaction fees except for merchants in Austria, Belgium, and Sweden.

The way that your account is billed for third-party transaction fees depends on your store's transaction volume, any recurring app charges, and the payment provider that you use.

Transaction fees don't apply for POS orders or formanual payment methods, which include cash on delivery (COD), bank deposits, checks, test orders, and draft orders marked as paid or pending. Third-party transaction fees aren't returned to you when you issue an order refund.

Transaction fees are in addition to processing fees charged by your third-party payment provider.

Calculate your third-party transaction fees

Shopify uses this formula to calculate third-party transaction fees for a 30-day period:
