How the numbers work

Shopify plan
Shopify charges Malaysian stores in USD. Yearly billing costs less per month than monthly billing.
Payment fees
Shopify Payments isn't available in Malaysia, so every store uses a third-party gateway. Shopify then adds 2% on Basic, 1% on Grow or 0.6% on Advanced on top of the gateway's rate.
Apps
App prices are each app's lowest paid plan on the Shopify App Store. Many have a free plan to start on, and some charge more as you grow.
Gross profit
Monthly sales minus product cost and payment fees. Profit after store costs then takes off the plan, apps, support and marketing.
ROI
First-year profit after all store costs, including setup, as a percentage of what the store cost in its first year.
