App Store & Google Play Commission Calculator

The calculator applies the published service-fee rates from Apple and Google to the price your customer pays. Every rate below is a store-published commission, cited in the Sources section. The commission is worked out on your developer proceeds, the listed price, using two steps.

Step 1, pick the rate. For the Apple App Store: a subscription drops to 15% once the subscriber has completed one year of paid service, otherwise it is 30% in the first year; a one-time app or in-app purchase is 15% if you are in the Small Business Program (proceeds at or below US$1,000,000 last calendar year), otherwise 30%. For Google Play: subscriptions are 15% from day one; one-time and in-app purchases are 15% on your first US$1,000,000 of earnings each year and 30% above that.

Step 2, do the arithmetic. With rate r:

• commission = price × r
• net (you keep) = price − commission
• take-home % = net ÷ price × 100

The net is verified two ways, as price − price × r and as price × (1 − r) , which must agree to sub-cent precision. For the annual projection the per-sale net is multiplied by your sales per month, then by 12: annual net = net × sales/month × 12. Local consumption taxes (VAT/GST) a store may collect on top of your price, FX spread and withdrawal fees are out of scope here, the Related tools below cover those.

• Apple: App Store Small Business Program (15% commission, ≤ US$1M proceeds)
• Apple: Auto-renewable subscriptions (30% year one, 15% after one year)
• Google Play Console Help: Service fees (15% first US$1M, 30% above)
• Google: 15% subscription service fee from day one

The commission rates on this page were last cross-checked against these official sources on 2026-07-12. They are reviewed whenever Apple or Google announces a change to its App Store or Play service fees.
