How eBay charges sellers
- A 13.6% final value fee on most categories.
- That fee applies to the item price, buyer-paid shipping, and even sales tax, not to the item price alone.
- A $0.30 to $0.40 per-order fee on top.
- Figures are before sales tax. eBay charges the final value fee on the tax it collects too, so a taxed order deducts slightly more than shown.

eBay fee questions
How much does eBay take from a sale in 2026?
For most categories: 13.6% of the total sale (item price + buyer-paid shipping + sales tax) up to $7,500, plus a per-order fee of $0.30 for orders of $10 or less and $0.40 above that. The portion of a sale over $7,500 is charged 2.35%.
Does eBay charge fees on shipping?
Yes — the final value fee applies to buyer-paid shipping, and to the sales tax eBay collects at checkout. That is why an $8 shipping charge raises your fee even though the money passes through to your label.
Which eBay categories have different fees?
Books, Movies and Music run 15.3%; women’s handbags 15% (9% above $2,000); athletic shoes over $150 get a reduced 8% with no per-order fee; guitars and basses just 6.7%. This calculator uses the most-categories 13.6% rate.
Does an eBay Store subscription lower fees?
Yes — Basic Store and above cuts the final value fee by roughly 0.9 percentage points in most categories (13.6% → about 12.7%), plus more zero-insertion-fee listings per month.
Is there a payment processing fee on top?
No. eBay’s managed payments rolled processing into the final value fee — the percentage plus the per-order fee is the whole deduction.
Selling on more than eBay?
Presto Bee cross-lists between Poshmark, Mercari, eBay, and Depop and shows this same fee math on every listing.
