How to Calculate eBay & Amazon Seller Fees

Selling on eBay, Amazon, or both? Here's the fee math for each so you can price with confidence.

eBay

Final value fee: 13.25% of the total sale (item + shipping) for most categories without a store subscription, plus $0.30 per order. Example: $50 sale → $6.63 + $0.30 = $6.93.

Amazon

Referral fee: 8–17% depending on category (15% is most common), charged on the selling price. FBA sellers add a fulfillment fee (~$3–6+ per unit). Example: $50 sale at 15% = $7.50 referral alone.
