How profit is calculated

The formula

Net profit is calculated like this:

Net profit = revenue − Uzum commission − logistics fee − your fulfillment cost − VAT − storage fee − cost of goods.

Every fee and cost is subtracted from the sales total in turn — what’s left is what you actually earn.

In practice, Uzum already hands over the seller’s revenue net of its own commissions and fees — MyProfit takes that figure as is. On top of it, MyProfit subtracts only your cost of goods. The formula above shows what the result is made of.

Where each value comes from

MyProfit pulls some of these from Uzum during sync; others you enter yourself. The MyProfit interface is in Russian, so on-screen labels are shown here in quotes.

  • Uzum commission, logistics fee, storage fee, VAT — come from Uzum.
  • Fulfillment cost (FF) — your own cost of picking and packing; you set this yourself in unit economics.
  • Cost of goods — the purchase price you enter for each SKU.

What counts as realized revenue

Only delivered items count toward profit — orders in the «К выводу» (to-withdraw) status. Orders that are «В обработке» (processing) are not confirmed yet, and «Отменен» (cancelled) ones are not counted at all.

Realized isn’t the same as money in your bank

Uzum pays out roughly 10 days after an item is bought out. So realized revenue and the amount already in your bank account are different numbers: the item is sold, but the payout is still on its way.

Without cost of goods, profit is overstated

If a SKU has no purchase cost entered, MyProfit can’t subtract the cost of the goods themselves — “profit” will be higher than reality. Enter your cost of goods so the number is honest: enter purchase cost.
