Shopify Admin Finops

FOCUS-aligned FinOps for the Shopify Admin API. The Admin API is bundled with a Shopify commerce subscription; cost surfaces are the monthly plan fee, payment processing take rates, and third-party payment provider fees. API throughput is governed by GraphQL points budgets that scale with the commerce plan rather than priced per call.

It defines 4 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category subscription + take rate.

The profile maps 6 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.
