Let’s be honest, calculating your real profits on Amazon can be a mess. Good thing Helium 10’s FBA Calculator makes it dead easy. And yeah, I’m not just saying that — I’m a Helium 10 Seller Solutions Hub Partner, I’ve been a guest author on the Helium 10 blog, and I’ve even been on their podcast. So I’ve tested it all.

And the FBA calculator? It’s the simplest way to get your Profit & Loss numbers without messing around with Excel formulas or pulling your hair out in Seller Central.
- Install the Helium 10 Chrome Extension: This calculator is built into it. You don’t need anything else. Just click. Boom.
- Sign up for a free Helium 10 account: Takes less than 60 seconds. Free tools included. No excuses.
How to use the FBA calculator
First of all, good news: It works not only for Amazon but also for Walmart. So if you’re going multichannel or selling in both, you’ve got coverage.
- Open any Amazon listing: After installing the Chrome extension, go to any product page. Click the Helium 10 icon, then “Profits” calculator. No rocket science involved.
- Fill in the blanks: Add the product ASIN or just search it. It auto-fills a bunch of stuff, but you’ll want to double-check and add your manufacturing, shipping, duties, etc.
- Check your real profit: You’ll get a breakdown of Amazon fees, FBA charges, shipping, storage, and your potential net. Adjust anything, and see the numbers update in real-time.

Same flow, just with Walmart fulfillment fees added to the mix.
Key Benefits of Helium 10’s FBA Calculator
- Know your numbers: Avoid ordering 1,000 units of something with zero margin. Run the calc first.
- Data tweaks on the fly: Change the price, tweak costs, see instantly how your ROI or margin reacts.
- Fast and free: No need for spreadsheets or logging in to Seller Central. One click, and you're in business.
Pro Tip: Want even more accurate numbers? Combine the FBA calculator with Helium 10’s Black Box + Cerebro. Use Cerebro to find your ASIN’s real competition, plug in your estimated sales from Xray, and compare it all inside the Profits tab. That’s what I do when I’m helping clients launch.

Revisar
For any serious (or semi-serious) Amazon seller, this is one of those must-have tools. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a Helium 10 Seller Solutions Hub Partner or write for their blog. I’ve used it with clients big and small, and it saves us hours every month.
The fact that it keeps up with the ever-changing Amazon FBA fee structure is already worth the install. No more wondering “¿me estoy comiendo los costes?” – it’s all right there in front of you. If you’re doing product research or about to hit the buy button on 1,000 units… use it first. Trust me.
Pros
- Fully integrated in the Chrome extension
- Free to use with basic Helium 10 account
- Real-time fee & profit estimates for both Amazon & Walmart
- Supports FBA, FBM, and even custom shipping models
- Updated with the latest Amazon FBA fee changes
Contras
- Not available as a standalone app — you need the Chrome extension
- If you don’t tweak the numbers, your margin might look nicer than reality
- You’ll want to combine it with other tools (Cerebro, Black Box) for best results
