01 / Baseline
The inputs behind this baseline.
The scenario represents the local-currency equivalent of US$20,000 monthly revenue and 400 monthly orders. Change every assumption in the calculator before making a purchase.
Comparable store size across all market guides.
Used for the fixed payment-fee component.
Rows with a published platform-market payment baseline.
Rows using an explicitly labeled market fallback until replaced.
02 / Baseline ordering
Five platforms, five payment profiles.
Each row uses its own published domestic-card terms where available. Planning allowances and missing quotes are labeled so an estimate cannot masquerade as a verified recommendation.
