How to price a custom order

Custom orders deserve a premium over standard items. This calculator builds a quote from the ground up — start with your standard costs, add customization materials and time, apply a complexity multiplier for one-of-a-kind work, then add rush fees and a profit margin.

Complexity multiplier: Charge more for work that requires extra skill, communication back-and-forth, or custom design time
Rush fee: A flat fee for orders with shorter-than-standard turnaround times
Profit margin: Applied on top of all costs — 30% is a common starting point

Never price custom orders below your standard items — customization requires more time, communication, and skill.
