Break-even ROAS calculator

A small working tool that tells a store owner the lowest ROAS their ads can run at before they start losing money.

Live tool

Find your break-even ROAS

Use any currency; just keep it the same in every field. Nothing leaves your browser.

Profit per order before ads—
Break-even ROAS—

ROAS to keep your target profit—

The example values are placeholders to show how it works, not data from a real store.

The problem

Many store owners judge ads by a ROAS number someone else told them was good. The right target depends on your own margins: a ROAS of 2 can be very profitable for one store and loss-making for another.

My role

Designed and built by me. It runs entirely in your browser; nothing you type is sent anywhere.

Approach

  • Asked only for numbers an owner already knows: price, product cost, delivery cost, other per-order costs.
  • Calculated profit per order before ads, then the break-even ROAS and cost per purchase.
  • Added a target-margin input, so the tool also shows the ROAS you need to keep a chosen profit.
  • Explained each result in one sentence so it's useful without a marketing background.

Deliverables

  • Interactive calculator
  • Plain-language explanations
  • Mobile-friendly layout
