About the Calculator
The TikTok Shop Sample Request ROI Calculator was built to solve the largest operational cash leak facing modern social e-commerce brands: unvetted free sample approvals.
Mathematical Objectivity
Replaces emotional gut-feeling with rigorous probability math. By multiplying creator median views, e-commerce conversion rates, and fulfillment probability, sellers discover the true expected value (EV) of every sample shipment.
100% Client-Side Privacy
Your product margins, shipping rates, and affiliate sales estimates stay entirely inside your web browser. No seller data or sales figures are ever uploaded or stored.
How Breakeven Views Are Formulated
Breakeven represents the exact view count threshold where gross margin generated from driven purchases equals the hard cash outlay of product COGS and fulfillment shipping. If an affiliate's median performance falls beneath this threshold, the request generates negative expected value.
