Apparel Pricing & Profit Calculator

Stop guessing what to charge. Know your costs. Price for profit.

The Apparel Pricing & Profit Calculator was built for apparel decorators who want to price their work based on their actual business costs — not what someone else charges or what “sounds about right.”

Whether you sell DTF apparel, custom shirts, hoodies, or other decorated garments, this tool helps you calculate what you need to charge while accounting for the expenses that are easy to overlook.

KNOW YOUR TRUE SHOP RATE

Enter your real expenses, including:

• Business and household overhead

• Equipment costs

• Printhead replacement costs and lifespan

• Estimated taxes

• Billable working hours

• Desired monthly cushion

The calculator uses your numbers to determine an hourly shop rate specific to your business.

PRICE YOUR APPAREL ORDERS

Create garment pricing profiles and calculate customer pricing using:

• Blank garment costs

• Quantity

• Print placements

• Production time

• Size upcharges

• Artwork/design fees

• Discounts

• Shipping

• Sales tax

• Payment processing fees

You can even account for card-processing fees while keeping other payment methods such as cash, check, Venmo, Cash App, or Zelle separate.

CREATE QUOTES & INVOICES

This isn't just a pricing calculator.

Add your business information and logo to create professional customer quotes and invoices directly from your pricing calculations.

Save customer and project information, reopen previous quotes, make changes, and convert accepted quotes into invoices while keeping the original quoted pricing.

TRACK & EXPORT

Keep your saved quotes and invoices organized and export sales information to CSV for use with programs such as Excel or Google Sheets.
