Shopify Price Calculator by Formula

Every online store owner wants to sell the product at a higher cost that will exceed their basic price. Still, they were unable to do this because Shopify only provides simple functionality to calculate prices, without any built-in option to measure by weight, length, area, or volume. Many merchants run into obstacles when they are looking to sell products that require these forms of calculations.

Now, with the Shopify Price Calculator by formula app, merchants can apply a predefined or custom calculator to specific products. It allows them to manage complex products by determining costs by length, width, area, or height, and then calculate accurate pricing for customers according to quantity, while maintaining transparency to eliminate confusion.

Key Features:

  • Display personalized pricing with a formula-based calculator ( custom or predefined) directly on product pages.
  • Manage the real-time calculation by entering its dimensions.
  • Instantly auto-modify formulas depending on user input or set conditions.
  • Select any product or collection to apply special rules, and add discounts or surcharges. 
  • Provide the 17 customizable field types to select and use in formula calculation.
  • Round off the figure once the final price is calculated.

Detailed Features Of Shopify Price Calculator by Formula

Use Cases of the Shopify Price Calculator by Formula

The following are some useful use cases of the Shopify cost calculator app:

  •  Furniture & Custom Woodworking
    Used to sell custom wooden products such as tables, desks, or wooden chester by surface area and calculate the price based on their width and height. For example,  calculate the price of a dining table or a wooden chester by using its length × width (sq. ft.) formula.
  • Butcher Shops, Bakeries & Cheese Stores
    Instead of selling items by a specific unit of measure, such as bakery items, milk, or cheese, here you can sell the items based on weight. For example, if cheese costs $12/lb and the customer orders 1.75 lb, then the calculator will instantly calculate the total price based on the selected weight.
  • Made-to-Measure Window Blinds
    Used to sell the products based on measurements, such as rolling blinds. For example, if you sold the roller blinds at $15 per sq. ft., the customer can add their measurement, and the price will be calculated based on their measurement.
  • Landscaping & Building Materials
    Used for selling the building or landscaping materials, such as mulch, gravel, sand, or soil, which are sold by volume. For example, you can charge $60 per cubic yard without multiple variants.
  • Carpet & Flooring Stores
    Used to sell the flooring items, such as carpet, and measured by box or sq. meter. For example, if the price of a flooring box is 2.5 m² per box, when the user selects the required boxes, it will automatically round to full boxes only.

Added Inbuilt Formulas, Custom & Predefined Calculators

Shopify custom price calculator provides customized and default calculators that help you calculate the pricing of your products based on the unit measurements. Each calculator has built-in formulas so you can use the calculations (per-unit weight, length, area, volume, etc.) on the various products with ease. The built-in tools allow accuracy and save time.

In this app, you can apply a customized calculator, where you can add different fields, formulas, and conditions to create a rule based on your business requirements. These calculators can break the costs down in real time, manage your pricing strategies, and build up customer trust.

Formula-Based Pricing

Using the Shopify custom price calculator, merchants can set prices on products using custom formulas rather than the fixed variants. This is particularly useful for those products where the price depends upon dimensions, weight, area, or volume. For example, a store owner wishes to sell a wooden table using dimensions. The store owner can sell it as follows: length * width * price per square foot. This formula can calculate the price automatically and accurately, without using manual calculation, and make your store quicker, easier, and customer-friendly.

Dynamic Input Fields for Custom Pricing

The Shopify product price calculator offers 17 dynamic fields, such as text, image swatches, color picker, file upload, radio buttons, etc. These fields can customize your complex products, such as gift packs, furniture, or apparel, and automatically calculate accurate prices using a custom formula that is used based on the information provided.

Sell in All Units

Measure in all the units for different types of products, such as square feet, yards, cubic yards, liters, or per piece, with Shopify’s product price calculator. Whether you are selling fabric by the yard, blinds by the square foot, mulch by the cubic yard, or liquid by the liter, the product calculator will allow you to measure and display prices dynamically by using a formula without creating multiple product variants like “1 lb, 1.5 lbs, 2 lbs.”  this process makes the catalog simple and easier, allowing the customer to buy the exact quantity of the product based on their needs.

Increase AOV by Price Calculations

Shopify Price Calculator by Formula can help you increase Average Order Value (AOV) using smart or rule-based pricing. Merchants can build bulk discounts, rounding rules, and surcharges to offer variable pricing instead of just offering a flat price. With these flexible and cost-effective options, users are increasing both store sales and order management. For example:

  • Bulk Discounts: Apply automatic discounts and give rewards on bulk purchases. For example, 15% off any order exceeding 10 lbs of cheese.
  • Rounding Rules: Used for those industries or stores where the items are sold in standard packing. For example, flooring is sold by the box. Automatically rounded up.
  • Oversize Surcharges: Used to apply the additional charges on special products. For example, add surcharges for large glass panels over 150 cm.

By using this combination, merchants can make the product catalog simple and easy, which encourages the customer to purchase more products.
