FAQ

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.
