Shopify profit tracker for EU stores: VAT, OSS and EU payment fees done right. The European way, and how the other apps handle it.

01 VAT stays out of your margins

12 Taxes14 Net Revenue

European shops price with VAT included, and nouz reads them that way: every revenue line down to Taxes, line 12, includes VAT, from gross merchandise value to returns.

Taxes is the VAT contained in what you kept: the VAT Shopify recorded on each order, minus the VAT handed back on refunds. Net Revenue, line 14, is gross revenue minus returns minus that VAT, and every line below it excludes VAT.

Every cost percentage on the statement uses Net Revenue as its base, so a margin is never flattered by the tax rate, and a sale to a business in another EU country under the reverse charge carries no VAT to take out.

The Forecast keeps the same split for the months ahead: its P&L shows the VAT inside your forecast sales on a line of its own, Taxes, month by month, which is where planning for the next VAT return starts.

02 How Shopify profit apps handle VAT, OSS and EU payments

Three questions decide whether a profit app reads a European store correctly: whether it takes the VAT out of prices that include it, whether a sale to another EU country under the One-Stop Shop carries that country's rate, and whether Klarna, iDEAL and EPS are priced as the methods they are. The table answers them for each app from its own help pages, read on 6 Nov 2026; where an app publishes nothing on a question, it says so rather than guessing.

nouz takes the VAT from the tax lines Shopify recorded on each order, so a store using OSS sees each destination's rate on the Taxes line without setting a rate per country, and a refund hands its own tax back on the day of the refund. Among the other apps, Profitario's documentation goes furthest, with VAT rates per country set by hand; nouz vs Profitario sets the two side by side, and the head-to-head with the Munich platform covers the DACH analytics platform priced on net revenue.

Prices and the rest of each app's features are in the best Shopify profit tracker apps, and one table lets you compare every tool nouz is compared with.

04 Packaging fees priced per destination

21 Logistic Costs31 Overhead Costs

Packaging EPR fees are part of logistics, line 21. You enter the rate per kilogram for each material and each destination country from your own scheme contract, and every parcel is charged on its packaging in the country it is delivered to.

A destination you have not priced is flagged, never charged at nothing, and a country where no packaging fee applies is listed without a rate, so that answer is never mistaken for a gap.

Fixed scheme costs, such as membership, minimum fees or an authorised representative, belong to overhead, line 31, under Compliance & fees, because they do not grow with orders.

nouz never registers you, files a declaration or says what you owe. It records the kilograms of each material you shipped to each market, priced at your own rates, and exports that record, which is what a scheme asks you to declare.

Shipping zones start as Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the rest of the EU and the rest of the world, and you shape them to your carrier's card. A rate card prices by weight or by parcel size, and a parcel to a zone no card prices is flagged.

05 Orders in other currencies, matched to Shopify's figures

Every figure is in your store's own currency. When Shopify stores an order in another currency, as it does with orders a marketplace connector brings in, the sync converts it before it reaches your P&L with the figures Shopify's own reports use, so it matches Shopify to the cent. Until those figures can be read, it uses the latest European Central Bank reference rate published before the order's own day.

Refunds follow the order, so a full refund cancels exactly. If no rate can be had, the order is flagged and converted on the next sync, and the P&L notes orders still on the ECB rate, which can differ from Shopify's own reports by a few cents.

A combined view of several stores adds up only stores that share a currency, so no figure ever sums two currencies.

06 The payment methods Europe uses, priced by your contract

23 Transaction Costs

Payments arrive under the names Shopify records, and nouz shows them as their brands: Klarna, PayPal, Mollie, Adyen, Unzer, PAYONE, Riverty and Ratepay among them, along with orders from marketplaces such as Amazon, bol, OTTO, Zalando and Kaufland.

Each method gets its own fee rule on line 23: a percentage plus a fixed fee, from your own contract. On Shopify Payments nouz takes the fee Shopify reports on each payment instead, and a method with no rule of its own is flagged, unless a catch-all rule you set prices it.

07 One flat monthly price

Base $55, Pro $115 and Scale $289 a month (about €49, €99 and €249), before tax, billed by Shopify on your Shopify invoice in US dollars; the euro figures are a guide.

Base covers up to 500 orders a month, and Pro and Scale have no order limit. No plan charges per order or takes a share of your revenue, every plan carries every feature, and each starts with 14 days free.
