Prices and rates verified

Advanced at a glance.

Advanced costs $399 a month on monthly billing in the US, or $299 a month billed yearly. It brings the online card rate down to 2.5% + 30¢, the third-party transaction fee to 0.6%, and includes 15 staff accounts and carrier-calculated shipping rates.

The price jump from Grow is large and the rate cut is small, so Advanced is usually chosen for its features first and its rates second. The section below shows how much you would need to sell for the rates alone to cover it.

* In the US this is the premium tier: business, corporate and commercial cards, plus every American Express card. Cards issued outside the US add 1% to the plan's rate.

India has no Shopify Payments, so every order there goes through another provider and pays Shopify's 0.6% third-party transaction fee on top of that provider's own fee.

France: Shopify's French pricing table lists no in-person card rate. Irish rates exclude VAT, which Shopify adds to its fees there.

One order, worked through.

Shopify Payments takes 2.5% + 30¢ on the $250.00 the customer pays, which comes to $6.55. No transaction fee is added, because the payment went through Shopify Payments. After $80.00 for the goods and $14.00 for postage, $149.45 is left: a 59.8% margin. Priced below $43.36 a unit, the same order would lose money.

When Advanced costs less than Grow.

Advanced costs $294 more a month than Grow on monthly billing, and takes 0.2 points less on each online card payment. With every order paid through Shopify Payments, Advanced comes out cheaper once you sell about $147,000 a month. Billed yearly the price gap is $220 a month, and the point moves to about $110,000 a month.

If you take payments through another provider, the transaction fee matters more than the card rate: 1% on Grow against 0.6% on Advanced. Then Advanced pays for itself from about $73,500 a month, or $55,000 billed yearly.

Plus is a different kind of step. It is sold on a 1-year or 3-year term and its card rate is 2.25% + 30¢, so on rates alone it beats Advanced only from about $840,400 a month through Shopify Payments. Stores usually move for what Plus adds, not for the rate.

At the higher yearly prices some visitors were shown on October 23, 2026 ($89 for Grow, $359 for Advanced), the yearly figure with Shopify Payments would be about $135,000 a month.
