eBay Fee Calculator

See what an eBay sale actually nets you — final value fee and insertion fee (if applicable), itemized down to your true margin.

Informational only, not professional advice. This tool estimates eBay's published fees for most categories; it does not replace your eBay Seller Hub payout report or a qualified accountant's advice.
Order total (item + shipping + tax)$38.50
Final value fee (13.6% + per-order fee)−$5.64
Total fees−$5.64
You keep$32.86 (85.3%)

In plain terms: that is what reaches you after this platform’s fees. What the item cost you to buy or make is not in it — subtract that to get your actual profit.

How this is calculated

Final value fee is 13.6% of your order total (item price + shipping + tax collected), plus a per-order fee of $0.30 for orders $10 or under, or $0.40 for orders over $10 — eBay's rate for most categories, on the portion of a sale up to $7,500.

Insertion fee is $0.35 per listing, but only once you've used your 250 free zero-insertion-fee listings for the month (more if you have an eBay Store subscription).

True margin is order total minus both fees — before your product cost, packaging, your cost to ship, or eBay Promoted Listings spend.

Scope & limitations

Covers eBay's "most categories" final value fee rate only. Not modeled: category-specific rates (Media, sneakers over $100, guitars & basses, and others), the 2.35% rate that applies above $7,500 on a single sale, eBay Store subscription discounts, Top Rated seller discounts, and Promoted Listings fees. Treat this as a fee-stack estimate, not a final invoice.

Frequently asked questions

Does the final value fee include shipping and tax?

Yes. eBay calculates the final value fee on the full order total — item price, shipping you charge the buyer, and any sales tax eBay collects — not just the item price.

Do I have to pay an insertion fee on every listing?

No. Every seller gets up to 250 zero-insertion-fee listings per month (more with an eBay Store subscription). This calculator only adds the $0.35 insertion fee when you tell it you're past that free allowance.

Why does this use a single 13.6% rate instead of category-specific rates?

13.6% + a per-order fee is eBay's rate for most categories. A handful of categories (Media, sneakers over $100, guitars and basses, and others) have different published rates that aren't modeled here — see the scope note below.

What about Store subscription or Top Rated seller discounts?

Not modeled. An eBay Store subscription can reduce the final value fee rate by roughly 0.9 percentage points, and Top Rated sellers get 10% off the percentage portion — both are seller-specific and not reflected in this estimate.
