Key takeaways
- Operating profit = MRR − payment fees − hosting − other cost of revenue − operating costs.
- Example: 120 customers at $29 is $3,480 MRR; fees are $136.92, hosting $150, operating costs $1,300, leaving $1,893.08 a month at a 54.4% net margin.
- Gross margin in that example is 91.8%, in the usual 70–90%+ range for software.
- Fixed costs of $1,450 against about $27.86 left per customer mean 53 customers to break even.
Shared hosting and tools make per-product profit hard to see. Hustlay splits them across your products and shows MRR next to real profit.

From MRR to operating profit
- MRR = paying customers × average price per customer.
- Payment fees = MRR × fee % + customers × fixed fee per charge.
- Gross profit = MRR − payment fees − hosting − other cost of revenue. Operating profit = gross profit − operating costs.
- Break-even customers = (hosting + other cost of revenue + operating costs) ÷ what one customer leaves after fees, rounded up.
