Selling fees, all in one place
Know what you'll actually keep — on every marketplace.
Every marketplace takes its cut differently: flat fees, percentages, per-order charges, plan subscriptions, affiliate cuts. These calculators run your item through each fee structure so you can price with confidence — and the comparisons pit marketplaces against each other, one item at a time.

Frequently asked questions
Which marketplace has the lowest fees?
For US sellers, Depop (0% commission + 3.3% + $0.45 processing) and Facebook Marketplace local pickup (no fee) are cheapest per sale. But fees aren't everything — audience, traffic, and sell-through speed matter too.
Are these fee calculations exact?
No — they're estimates from dated assumptions published on each tool, with links to official fee pages. Category rates, countries, and promotions change the real numbers.
Should I sell on multiple marketplaces?
Many sellers do: list where the buyers are, and use the comparison calculators to know which channel keeps more per sale before you price.
