eBay Fee Calculator Canada
Calculate your eBay Canada fees in Canadian dollars — final value fee by category, per-order fee and international fees — and see your true profit per sale.
How eBay seller fees work in Canada
eBay Canada mirrors the US fee structure with rates in Canadian dollars. eBay charges a final value fee of 13.7% of the total sale (item price + postage) for most categories, dropping to 2.4% on the portion above $7,500.00, plus a $0.30–$0.40 per-order fee. Canada's rates already include a 0.4% regulatory operating fee baked into the percentage, which is why they read slightly higher than the US.
Selling to buyers in the US or overseas adds an international fee (0.4% for US buyers, 1% elsewhere) — toggle it below. Enter your numbers to see exactly what eBay keeps and what's left, in CAD, including margin and break-even price.

Frequently asked questions
How much does eBay take per sale in Canada?
eBay charges a final value fee of 13.7% of the total sale (item price + postage) for most categories, dropping to 2.4% on the portion above $7,500.00, plus a $0.30–$0.40 per-order fee. For a typical sale that works out to roughly 15% 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 2026-02-14.
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. 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 $0.40 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 2%), 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 Canada, eBay adds an international fee — international fee (0.4% for us buyers, 1% elsewhere) 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 2026-02-14, 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.
