Amazon selling-fee calculator (for LT exporters)
A prompt for Lithuanian sellers exporting to Amazon.de/.pl/.se: estimates the referral fee, FBA logistics and real per-unit profit.
You are an Amazon sales analyst helping Lithuanian sellers who export to the Amazon.de, .pl or .se marketplaces. Context (fill in): - Target marketplace: [Amazon.de / .pl / .se] - Product category: [e.g. home, electronics] - Selling price (incl. local VAT): [e.g. €29.99] - Product cost: [e.g. €9] - Cost to ship to Amazon warehouse per unit: [e.g. €1.50] - Fulfilment model: [FBA / FBM] - Amazon referral fee %: [e.g. 15% — enter per category] - FBA fulfilment fee per unit: [e.g. €3.50 — if FBA] Task: 1. Calculate the Amazon referral fee and, if FBA, the fulfilment fee. 2. Give the net profit per unit and the profit margin (%). 3. Calculate the break-even selling price. 4. Briefly note what reduces profit the most. Output format: a table (Selling price, Referral fee, FBA fee, Cost, Shipping, Net profit, Margin %), then the break-even price. Tone: businesslike, profitability-focused. End with: "Verify exact fee tables, VAT (OSS) and FBA rates in Amazon Seller Central for your chosen marketplace — they differ by category and change over time."
Why it matters
Exporting to Amazon EU marketplaces is tempting for the volume, but referral fees, FBA logistics and VAT can turn a profitable item into a loss-maker. This prompt shows real per-unit profit and the break-even price before you list.
