How eBay fees work

eBay bundles selling and payment fees into one final value fee: 13.6% of the total sale (12.7% with a store), plus a small per-order fee. It applies to the item price and the shipping you charge.

Frequently asked questions

What is the eBay final value fee in 2026?

For most categories eBay charges a final value fee of 13.6% of the total sale, plus a per-order fee of $0.30 for orders $10 or less and $0.40 for orders over $10. A Basic Store subscription (or higher) lowers the percentage to about 12.7%.

What does the final value fee apply to?

The total amount of the sale — item price plus any shipping and handling you charge the buyer (and, in some cases, sales tax). That is why the shipping you charge is included in this calculator.

How do I lower my eBay fees?

A store subscription drops the rate to ~12.7% and can pay for itself at higher volume. Keeping your account in good standing avoids the extra fee eBay charges sellers with high defect rates.
