How eBay seller fees work in Australia

eBay Australia introduced free selling in 2026: sellers under AU$25,000 in annual sales pay no final value fees (buyers pay a protection fee). This calculator models the Pro/business-seller rates that apply above that threshold. eBay charges a final value fee of 13.4% of the total sale (item price + postage) for most categories, plus a $0.30–$0.30 per-order fee. The final value fee is capped at $440.00 per item.

Rates are inclusive of GST. Selling internationally adds a 3% fee (raised from 1.1% in 2026) — toggle it below. Fill in your price, postage and costs to see your true profit per sale in AUD, your margin and your break-even price.

The formulas behind the numbers

Nothing is hidden — these are the exact rules the calculator applies, in the order it applies them.

Final value fee
13.4% of the total sale (item price + postage) for most categories, then 2.4% on the portion above $4,000.00. Rates vary by category — pick yours in the calculator.
Per-order fee
A fixed $0.30 on orders $10.00 or under, $0.30 above that — charged once per order.
International fee
International fee (buyer outside Australia; raised from 1.1% in 2026) when the buyer is outside Australia. Toggle it in the calculator.
Promoted Listings
An optional, seller-chosen ad rate (from 1%) charged as a percent of the sale, only on promoted sales.
Profit, margin & break-even
Profit is revenue minus every fee and cost above. Margin is profit as a share of revenue. Break-even is the lowest item price where profit reaches zero, solved against the full fee structure.

Frequently asked questions

How much does eBay take per sale in Australia?

eBay charges a final value fee of 13.4% of the total sale (item price + postage) for most categories, plus a $0.30–$0.30 per-order fee. For a typical sale that works out to roughly 14% of what the buyer pays, before any Promoted Listings spend. The calculator's "eBay takes" figure shows your exact percentage for your numbers, using rates effective 2026-04-24.

What is the eBay final value fee charged on?

The final value fee applies to the total amount of the sale — the item price plus the postage you charge the buyer (and any sales tax the buyer pays). That's why charging $5.00 postage doesn't net you $5.00: eBay takes its percentage of postage too.

What is the per-order fee?

On top of the percentage fee, eBay charges a fixed fee per order: $0.30 on orders $10.00 or under and $0.30 on orders above that. It's charged once per order, not per item, and the calculator adds it automatically.

How do Promoted Listings fees work?

Promoted Listings Standard lets you boost visibility for a seller-chosen ad rate (minimum 1%), charged as a percentage of the sale only when a buyer clicks your promoted listing and buys. Enter your ad rate in the calculator to fold it into your profit.

What is the international fee?

When your buyer's registered address is outside Australia, eBay adds an international fee — international fee (buyer outside australia; raised from 1.1% in 2026) to the sale total. Toggle "International sale" in the calculator to include it.

Does this calculator include taxes?

No. Results exclude income tax and GST/sales tax on your sale. Use the Misc fees field for anything specific to your account. Always confirm final fees in your eBay Seller Hub.

How accurate and up to date are these fees?

Fee data is maintained against eBay's published fee schedule, currently effective 2026-04-24, and is being re-verified against eBay's live tables. eBay updates category rates periodically, so always confirm against your Seller Hub before making pricing decisions.
