About this calculator

Marketplaces and payment processors skim a percentage plus, often, a fixed transaction fee. Upwork takes a flat 10% service fee; PayPal adds roughly 3.5-5% plus a fixed amount, more on cross-border payments; Wise and Payoneer are cheaper but not free. Use forward mode to see your take-home, or reverse mode to gross-up an invoice so the client's payment nets exactly what you need. Many freelancers then convert USD payouts to THB - factor that spread in too.
