Work out a sale price in seconds. Enter the original price and the discount percentage, and this calculator shows you exactly how much you save and what the final price will be. It's perfect for pricing promotions, checking a shop's sale claim, or applying a client discount on a quote.
How to calculate a percentage discount
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage to find the amount saved, then subtract that from the original price for the final price. For example, 15% off $100 is $15 saved, leaving a final price of $85. This calculator does it instantly for any price and percentage.
Using discounts in your business
Discounts are a powerful tool — early-payment discounts encourage clients to pay invoices faster, while bulk or loyalty discounts reward repeat customers. Just make sure the discount still leaves you a healthy profit margin (you can check that with our profit margin calculator).
- Early-payment discounts (e.g. 2% off if paid in 10 days)
- Bulk-order discounts for larger quantities
- Loyalty discounts for repeat clients
- Seasonal or promotional sale pricing
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate a discount?
Multiply the original price by the discount percentage to get the savings, then subtract that from the original price. For 20% off $50: $50 × 0.20 = $10 saved, final price $40.
How do I calculate the final price after a discount?
Subtract the discount amount from the original price. Or multiply the price by (1 minus the discount as a decimal) — e.g. $80 at 25% off is $80 × 0.75 = $60.
