Calculating the Base Price For Spreadshop Merch

Each product type has a fixed Base Price. It consists of the price for the respective product and the fee for one print area. In the Partner Area, you can add your Margin to this Base Price by setting the retail price (Shop Settings > Prices & Promos > Shop pricing).

• The retail price is the price at which you offer the product in your Shop.

• The Margin is the amount you’d like to earn on each product sold.

Your earnings consist of your margin and your performance bonus.

Why It Matters for Your Merch Strategy

1. Pricing Strategy:
   When you know each base price and your margin, you can set competitive yet profitable retail prices. Want to offer a t‑shirt at $25? Understand that your margin is the difference between that and its base price (e.g., $13.99).

2. Transparency and Trust:
   Customers appreciate seeing fair pricing. Seeing value in your products helps with conversions and brand trust.

3. Budget & Season Planning:
   By viewing your exported base price table, you can plan promotions around seasonal spikes or holidays—adjusting margins to stay competitive while preserving profitability.
