How is gaming cafe monthly revenue calculated?
Revenue = stations x hourly rate x open hours per day x occupancy rate x days open per month. Food and snack sales are added on top as an average spend per session.
What occupancy rate should I assume for a gaming cafe?
Occupancy varies widely by location and day of the week. Many owners plan conservatively and model a range rather than a single number — run the calculator at a low, expected and optimistic occupancy to see the spread.
What running costs should a gaming cafe include?
Rent, staff salaries, electricity, internet, game and software licences, maintenance and consumables. This calculator covers those as monthly inputs.
How do I work out break-even for a gaming cafe?
Divide your total one-time setup investment by your monthly profit. The calculator does this and shows the number of months to recover the investment.
