For US eligible USD sales, Depop charges **0%** as a Depop Selling fee. The primary cost to sellers is **payment processing at 3.3% + $0.45** per transaction. Buyers pay a marketplace fee (estimated up to 5% + up to $1) at checkout, but this does _not_ reduce the seller's payout. Optional **boosted listings cost 12%** of the item sale price in UK/US. Boosting fees are not charged on Depop Shipping labels — if you use Depop's prepaid label, the boost base is the item price only. Only charged if a boosted item sells. Use the [Depop Fee Calculator](https://ecomcalctools.com/resale/depop-fee-calculator/) to model your exact payout for any listing price. ## Depop Fee Stack Table Fee Amount Who Pays Deducted from Seller? Depop Selling Fee 0% (US eligible) Seller N/A (0%) Payment Processing 3.3% + $0.45 Seller Yes, from payout Buyer Marketplace Fee up to 5% + up to $1 Buyer No Boosted Listing Fee 12% of item sale price (Depop Shipping); add seller-arranged shipping if applicable Seller Yes, only if boosted sells ## Depop Selling Fee For US eligible USD sales, the **Depop Selling fee is 0%**. This is the fee people traditionally refer to as "the Depop fee" — and for US sellers, it costs nothing. Payment processing (3.3% + $0.45) still applies on every sale. Non-US sellers or different sale types may have different fee arrangements — check the [Depop Help Center](https://depophelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360001791127-Seller-fees-and-charges) for the most current rates. **Note:** eBay's planned acquisition of Depop (announced 2026) is currently under UK CMA review. Depop's fee structure reflects its official Help Center as of June 2026 and has not changed as a result of the acquisition announcement. ## Depop Payment Processing Fee The payment processing fee is the main cost to US Depop sellers. It applies to the full order base: item price + buyer shipping + tax. Formula Payment Processing = (Item Price + Buyer Shipping + Tax) × 3.3% + $0.45 ### Payment Processing Example $50 item + $7.50 buyer shipping + $5 tax ($50.00 + $7.50 + $5.00) × 3.3% + $0.45 \= $62.50 × 3.3% + $0.45 \= $2.0625 + $0.45 **\= $2.51** ## Depop Marketplace Fee for Buyers Buyers on Depop pay a marketplace fee at checkout. This fee is estimated at up to **5% of item price + up to $1 fixed** fee. The fee base excludes taxes and shipping. This fee is displayed at checkout and varies by transaction. In the [Depop Fee Calculator](https://ecomcalctools.com/resale/depop-fee-calculator/), the buyer marketplace fee is labeled as "estimated / editable" because the exact amount can vary. **Critically: this fee is paid by the buyer and is NOT deducted from the seller's payout.** The seller receives the full item price minus payment processing, regardless of the buyer fee. ## Depop Boosted Listing Fee Boosted listings are an optional Depop feature for UK and US sellers. When you boost a listing: - The boosted listing fee is **12% of item sale price** in UK/US markets - Depop states that **boosting fees are not charged on Depop Shipping labels** — if you use Depop's prepaid label, the boost base is the item price only - If you arrange your own shipping, applicable shipping costs may be included in the boost base - Tax is not included in the boosted fee base - It is _only_ charged when a boosted item actually sells - Boosting is off by default in the Depop Fee Calculator Formula Boosting Fee = Item Sale Price × 12% (Depop Shipping label) Or: Boosting Fee = (Item Price + Seller-Arranged Shipping) × 12% ## Seller Payout vs Buyer Total Cost Depop has two separate financial tracks. Understanding both helps you price strategically: Seller Net Payout Item Price + Buyer Shipping − Payment Processing − Boosting Fee (if any) − Seller Shipping (if any) Buyer Total Cost Item Price + Buyer Shipping + Tax + Buyer Marketplace Fee These tracks are independent. The buyer marketplace fee is paid by the buyer to Depop — it does not reduce the seller's payout. Use the [Depop Fee Calculator](https://ecomcalctools.com/resale/depop-fee-calculator/) to see both tracks side by side. ## Depop Fee Examples: $25, $50 and $100 ### Depop Fee Breakdown by Sale Price No boosting.
