How the ROAS estimate works

The calculator uses Sellermetry’s TikTok Shop US planning model to estimate referral fees after expected refunds, refund administration fees, creator commission recovery before payout, and optional Smart Promotion cost.

Break-even ROAS equals product revenue divided by contribution available before advertising. Target-margin ROAS first reserves the desired profit dollars, then divides revenue by the remaining affordable ad cost.

This is a planning estimate. Actual GMV Max attribution, settlement timing, category referral rates, and order adjustments may differ.
