How to calculate Telegram gift profit, ROI and break-even
A higher resale price does not automatically mean a profitable trade. The useful result is what remains after the purchase cost, marketplace deduction and any other known expenses.
Telegram gift profit formula
The calculator first deducts the selected seller fee from the expected sale price. It then subtracts what you paid for the gift and any additional costs you entered.
Profit or loss = sale price − seller fee − purchase price − other costs.
What ROI tells you
Return on cost expresses the estimated profit as a percentage of the total amount invested. It is useful when comparing trades of different sizes, while the TON result shows the actual amount at risk or earned.
ROI = profit ÷ (purchase price + other costs) × 100.
Use the break-even price before listing
The break-even result estimates the minimum gross sale price needed to recover the complete cost basis after the selected seller fee. Selling at the purchase price is usually not break-even when a fee is deducted.
Enter the exact fee displayed by the marketplace and include known transfer or service costs for a more realistic threshold.
Run more than one price scenario
- Start with a conservative price supported by nearby listings.
- Test the current collection or model floor as a reference.
- Try a target price and compare the extra ROI with the likely wait.
- Recalculate if the market floor, fee or TON-denominated costs change.
Profit is not the same as an executable sale
Floor prices are asking-price references, not proof that a buyer will purchase your exact gift. Model rarity, backdrop, symbol, item number, listing depth and marketplace demand can all affect execution. Use the calculator for scenario planning, then verify comparable listings and current marketplace terms before acting.
