Master eBay Commission Fees: Your Ultimate Guide to Understanding and Managing eBay Selling Costs

Final value fees are charged based on the total amount of the sale, including the item price, shipping, and any other applicable charges. The percentage varies by category but typically ranges from 10% to 12%.

Insertion fees are charged when you list an item for sale. eBay allows sellers a certain number of free listings per month, and beyond that, a fee is charged for each additional listing. The fee depends on the starting price of the item.

Sellers can choose to enhance their listings with optional upgrades such as bold titles, subtitles, or additional photos. Each of these enhancements comes with an additional fee.

For high-volume sellers, eBay offers store subscriptions which come with a monthly fee. Subscribing to a store can provide benefits such as lower final value fees and additional free listings.

To increase the visibility of your listings, you can use eBay's Promoted Listings service. The fee for this service is a percentage of the final sale price and is only charged when your item sells through the promoted listing.
