eBay fee calculator: see what eBay takes, and what you keep.

For most categories, eBay's final value fee is 13.6% up to $7,500, then 2.35% on the portion over $7,500, calculated per item on the total sale. eBay also charges a per-order fee of $0.30 for orders of $10 or less and $0.40 for orders over $10. Some categories, such as books, guitars, trading cards, jewelry, and watches, have different rates.

In most categories without a Store, eBay takes 13.6% up to $7,500, then 2.35% on the portion over $7,500 plus a per-order fee of $0.30 for orders of $10 or less and $0.40 for orders over $10. For example, a $100 item with $10 shipping is a $110 sale: 13.6% is $14.96, plus the $0.40 per-order fee, so eBay takes $15.36 before your item cost, shipping label, and any ad fees. This is an example of the most common rate; other categories, Store subscribers, and seller levels differ.

A fee calculator stops at what eBay charges: the final value fee, the per-order fee, and any extras. A profit calculator goes on to subtract what you paid for the item, shipping labels, and other costs, so you see what you keep. This page does both: enter the sale to see eBay's fees and your payout, then add your costs to see profit.

eBay's commission is its final value fee, a percentage of the total sale (item price, shipping, and sales tax) plus the per-order fee. Multiply the total sale by the category rate, add the per-order fee, and the result is what eBay charges before any Store, seller level, international, or Promoted Listings adjustments. The calculator above does these steps for you.

Yes. eBay calculates the final value fee on the total amount of the sale, which includes the item price, shipping and handling charged to the buyer, and sales tax. Sales tax itself goes to the state, but the fee on it comes out of your payout.

Starter Store sellers pay the same final value fees as sellers without a Store. Basic, Premium, Anchor, and Enterprise Store subscribers pay lower rates in most categories, for example 12.7% up to $2,500, then 2.35% on the portion over $2,500, compared with 13.6% up to $7,500 without a Store. Use the Store comparison in the calculator to see whether the monthly subscription pays for itself at your sales volume.

Top Rated Plus listings get a 10% discount on the percentage part of the final value fee. The discount does not apply to the per-order fee or to additional fees for high 'item not as described' return rates.

If you are based in the US and sell to a buyer outside the US without using eBay International Shipping, eBay charges an international fee of 1.65% of the total sale. Sales shipped through eBay International Shipping do not pay it.

With a general (cost per sale) campaign, eBay charges your ad rate as a percentage of the item's total sale amount, including item price, shipping, and taxes, when a buyer purchases after clicking the ad within 30 days.

Below Standard sellers pay an additional final value fee of 6% of the total sale, rising to 7% after four or more consecutive months Below Standard.

The rates come from eBay's US selling fee pages and were last checked on October 25, 2026. The calculator covers final value fees, per-order fees, Store rates, seller level adjustments, international fees, and Promoted Listings. It does not include insertion fees, optional listing upgrades, the extra fee for a very high rate of 'item not as described' returns, or vehicle, real estate, and eBay Live fees. Profit is only as accurate as the costs you enter, and it is a planning figure, not tax advice. Use your actual payouts and receipts for your books.

Start with your eBay payout: what the buyer paid for the item and shipping, minus eBay's fees. Then subtract what you paid for the item, the shipping label, supplies, and any refund or return shipping. Net profit = eBay payout - item cost - shipping label - other costs - refunds - return shipping.

The payout is what eBay sends you after its fees. Profit is what is left after your own costs too, such as the item, the shipping label, and supplies. A sale can have a healthy payout and still lose money if the item or label cost more than expected.

Divide what you paid for the lot by the number of items you can sell, and count that share each time one sells. If you paid $60 for six sellable items, each one carries $10 of cost. Switch the calculator to multiple items and choose the lot option to do this for you.

Enter the profit you want under the pricing tools. The calculator finds the lowest price that reaches it after eBay fees and the costs you entered, including any refund or return shipping, and also shows the break-even price where profit is zero.

Profit margin is profit divided by what the buyer paid for the item and shipping. Return on cost is profit divided by what you paid for the item. A $10 profit on a $50 sale of an item that cost $5 is a 20% margin and a 200% return on cost.

Use the estimate before you list or buy. After the order settles, enter the actual payout from eBay: it already reflects every fee eBay charged, so the calculator uses it in place of the fee estimate and does not deduct the fees twice.

No. eBay collects sales tax and sends it to the state. The final value fee is charged on the total including tax, so tax lowers your payout slightly, but the tax itself is not your money.
