As the title says, what is a safe percentage should i add on to to the prices of my products to cover the fees taken by bonanza?

Hello [URL removed]
I’m not sure that a general percentage would be more accurate than adding Bonanza’s minimum fee or your particular advertising fee percentage. I have selected the 9% advertising budget fee, whatever that advertising plan is called (I think the names have changed). Bonanza charges a 0.50 minimum FVF per sale. In order to reach that 0.50 amount at 9%, my product has to sell for 5.50. At that price, Bonanza will get their minimum 0.50 fee. So every product that I sell for under %5.50, I add an automatic 0.50 fee, rather than a 9 fee, because 9% of anything under $5.50 will not = 0.50. Since Bonz’s lowest % fee, for anyone not signed up for an advertising plan, is 3.5%, my fee could actually anywhere from 3.5 – 9%, depending on how I made the sale, or how the buyer learned of the product. Took me a minute to understand it, and I hope this is right. I like to help a lot, but it’s only real help if it’s right, lol!
It can be confusing, so you will find more detailed fee info at Bonanza’s sellers help page [URL removed] [URL removed]
Have a nice day,

I think i see what you are saying…
If i upgrade the advertising to basic, when a person clicks on my product from google shopping, bonanza promotion and trough affiliates and buys my product, i would have to cough up 0.09% to bonanza. Same way with the Elite package, i would have to cough up 0.30%?
Lets say that i bought the elite package. If my vendor/wholesale price is $25.97 (what i paid for it), and if i wanted to make 0.10% profit, i would need to add 0.40% and sell that product for $37.35 to cover the 0.30% bonanza takes, plus make my 0.10%
What if a person that clicks on a product that is being advertised through the elite package, but the person doesn’t buy that product and he buys a product from my booth that wasn’t being advertised, would i need to cough up that 0.30% or would it just be just the 0.03%?
I just relized that i put 0.% Thats how you do it in excel. 0.3% = 30% lol
