Fees verified 2026-09-25 · Poshmark official fee page
A flat $2.95 commission on sales under $15, and 20% of the sale price for sales of $15 or more. There are no separate listing or payment-processing fees.
The buyer pays a flat $6.49 and that funds Poshmark’s prepaid USPS Ground Advantage label. It never enters your earnings, and the commission is charged on the item price only. Two things change that figure, and both come out of your side. A listing shipping discount lets you charge the buyer $4.99 or nothing instead; Poshmark deducts the difference — $1.50 or $6.49 — from your net earnings, after the commission. Raising the price to recover it costs more than the discount itself: above $15 you keep 80% of every extra dollar, so covering $6.49 of free shipping takes about $8.11 more on the price tag. Weight is the other part: up to 5 lb costs you nothing, but over that you upgrade the label and pay the difference yourself — $5 for 5.01–10 lb and $10 for 10.01–15 lb, deducted from your earnings. Above 15 lb Poshmark asks you to split the order across additional labels, charged separately; this calculator does not estimate that case.
The flat $2.95 under $15 works out to an effective 29.5% on a $10 sale — the flat fee structurally penalizes low-price items. Cheap items usually net more on Depop or Mercari.
Poshmark briefly experimented with a buyer-protection-fee model in 2024, then reverted to the classic $2.95 / 20% structure on October 24, 2024. That reverted structure is what this calculator uses. Note: since October 2025, sellers located in Texas see an additional Texas Seller Fee Tax.
Poshmark’s 20% is the highest flat commission of the big reseller marketplaces — eBay effectively takes ~14%, Mercari 10%, and Depop only a 3.3% + $0.45 processing fee. Compare them side by side in our net payout calculator.
