ROAS Calculator
Measure how much revenue your advertising is generating relative to ad spend. This free ROAS calculator helps you judge top-line efficiency before wider business costs are layered in.
Formula: ROAS = Revenue / Ad spend
When this ROAS calculator helps
Use ROAS when you are checking channel performance, comparing campaigns, setting target returns or communicating top-line efficiency to clients and stakeholders.
What ROAS is best for
ROAS is ideal when you want a simple top-line measure of how much revenue a campaign is driving for each unit of spend. It is widely used in ecommerce, paid social and performance marketing reporting.
- Useful for campaign comparison and target setting
- Clear enough for client and stakeholder reporting
- Most powerful when paired with CPA, margin and ROI data
Example ROAS calculation
If you spend 2,000 and generate 8,400 in revenue, your ROAS is 4.20x. That means every 1 spent on ads is generating 4.20 in revenue.
This is a strong top-line signal, but you still need to check gross margin, fees and overhead before calling it truly profitable.
