Each pack, shipped free, per order

| Option | Customer pays | Shipping charged | Costs | Margin | Margin % | Conversion against the single |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Single | $40.00 | $0.00 | $27.95 | $12.05 | 30.1% | — |
| Pack of 2, 10% off | $72.00 | $0.00 | $44.17 | $27.83 | 38.7% | can lose 56.7% |
| Pack of 3, 15% off | $102.00 | $0.00 | $60.64 | $41.36 | 40.5% | can lose 70.9% |

Every figure is computed by the margin engine in Offer Suite's own code, in whole cents, from the costs below.

## What the numbers say

A single bag of coffee at $40.00, shipped free, keeps $12.05 after every cost (30.1%). The pack of two at 10% off keeps $27.83, and the pack of three at 15% off $41.36.

The packs earn more per order because the order pays one pick-and-pack fee and one fixed card fee whatever it holds, and the label grows slowly with weight: $9.29 for one unit, $12.12 for three.

Per visitor, the pack of three earns as much as the single even if 70.9% fewer visitors buy it.

## The cost structure, and where it comes from

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Price | $40.00, a bag of coffee. Offer Suite's dev store catalog |
| Unit cost | $12.00. “Single Bag: price 40.00, unit cost 12.0 · mug gift: unit cost 4.0, compare-at 18.00” Offer Suite's dev store catalog |
| Pick and pack | $3.20 per order and $0.48 for each extra item. [Fulfill.com, 3PL pricing benchmarks (The Fulfillment Advisor 2025 survey of 600+ warehouses), read 23 September 2026](https://www.fulfill.com/3pl-pricing) |
| Shipping label | USPS Ground Advantage, commercial, Zone 5, by weight rounded up to the pound: 1 lb $9.29 · 2 lb $10.50 · 3 lb $12.12 · 4 lb $13.89 · 5 lb $14.53. Packed weight is an assumption: 0.8 lb per unit.

| Card fees | 2.9% + $0.30 per order: Shopify Payments' online rate for a standard card on the Basic plan in the United States. Higher plans pay a lower rate, and premium cards a higher one.

| Refund reserve | 5%, Offer Suite's default assumption for consumables. NRF's all-category figure for online sales is 19.3%, but consumables are rarely returned; use your own rate. |
| Gift | A mug: unit cost $4.00, retail $18.00. The dev store's mug gift: unit cost $4.00, compare-at $18.00. |
