LandedCost
LandedCost calculates landed costs and per-unit profitability for importers and e-commerce sellers. Its engine allocates shared expenses by volume, weight, chargeable weight, units, value, or equal split. Shipments progress through created, in-transit, customs, and delivered stages, with costs accruing along the way. The platform calculates duty and import VAT by HS code and leaves reclaimable VAT out of profit calculations. Supplier invoices can use historical exchange rates from the day payment moved. Profitability calculations can include Amazon, eBay, and Shopify fees, while the extent of multi-channel features depends on plan. Listed channels also include Walmart, Etsy, TikTok Shop, and WooCommerce. Reports include CSV table exports, quarterly cost packs, and PDFs. The web-based cloud service offers tariff classification and landed-cost calculation, but not customs filing. Pricing starts at $49/mo, and the 14-day trial requires a payment card; billing starts on day 15 unless cancelled. Free import duty, HS code, invoice, FBA fee, and container tools are available without an account.
