Poshmark fee calculator
Poshmark takes $2.95 from any sale under $15 and 20% from $15 up, so on those you keep 80%. Listing is free. The fee is charged on the order price alone, because the buyer pays Poshmark for the prepaid shipping label: shipping never enters your payout and never enters the fee (Poshmark's Fee Policy and its help article on selling fees, read 2026-10-19).
Type your price and what the item cost you, and the calculator returns the fee and what you keep. There are no shipping boxes on purpose. The one Poshmark charge it leaves out is the Texas Seller Fee Tax, explained below, because it depends on where you ship from.
No shipping fields here: on Poshmark the buyer pays Poshmark for the prepaid label, and the commission is on the order price alone, a flat $2.95 under $15 and 20% from $15. Listing is free. A shipping discount you offer, or a label over 5 lb, comes out of your earnings and is not counted here.

Poshmark is the only one of these 19 where you pay a commission but never set a shipping price.
Every other marketplace here adds something to its cut or leaves the postage to you, and most do both. They put the shipping you charge inside their cut: Etsy's 6.5% covers item plus delivery, eBay's 13.6% covers the total amount of the sale, Amazon Handmade's 15% covers item plus shipping, Walmart charges on the total sales price and Depop's processing is charged on the shipping too. Vinted is the other way round: it charges the seller nothing and bills its fee to the buyer. Mercari comes closest, with one 10% fee and no processing line, but it charges that fee on the shipping the buyer pays as well, and when you ship free the label is yours. On Poshmark the buyer pays the shipping to Poshmark, Poshmark sends you the prepaid label, and the commission is worked out on the order price alone. Raising or lowering shipping to move your fee is not even possible here: there is no shipping price for you to set.

This is the standard sale used on every calculator here and on the 19-marketplace comparison, so the platforms can be held against each other, which is why it differs from the boxes at the top of the page. Put your own numbers up there and the breakdown follows. Commission on the order price. The buyer pays Poshmark for the prepaid label, so the shipping in this sale is the buyer's payment to Poshmark, not your revenue. Texas sellers also pay tax on part of the fee (not modelled).

What Poshmark charges in 2026, line by line
There are two rates and one threshold. A sale under $15 pays a flat $2.95, whatever the price. A sale of $15 or more pays 20% of the order price and you keep 80%. There is no listing fee, no monthly plan and no separate payment-processing line: Poshmark's fee is the whole of what it takes from a normal sale.
The fee is taken from the final order price after the item sells, which is the price after any offer you accepted, not the price you first listed at. An item listed at $60 that sells for $45 through an accepted offer pays 20% of $45, so a lower offer lowers the fee with it. The calculator works the same way: type the price the item actually sold for.
The $15 line: why a $2.95 fee is not a small fee
A flat fee reads as cheap and works as a percentage that grows as the price falls. At $14.99 the $2.95 is 19.7% of the sale, close to the 20% you would pay one cent higher. At $10 it is 29.5%. At $5 it is 59%, and on a $3 item Poshmark keeps almost all of it. That is the rule a seller of cheap pieces has to plan around, because no other line on Poshmark changes with the price.
The threshold also makes one price step worth checking. An item that sells for $14 leaves you $11.05; at $15 the fee becomes $3.00 and you keep $12.00. A dollar more on the price is 95 cents more in your pocket, which is the best rate you will get anywhere on the scale.
Bundles are one order, so they pay one fee
Because the fee is charged on the final order price, a bundle of several items pays one fee on the bundle total, not one fee per item. Three $5 items sold one by one pay three flat fees, $8.85 in all, and leave you $6.15 of the $15 they bring in. The same three sold as one bundle at $15 pay 20%, which is $3.00, and leave you $12.00.
That is why bundle offers matter more on Poshmark than on platforms that charge a percentage on every sale: below $15, every item you can move into a bundle takes a $2.95 fee off the table. The buyer also pays one shipping charge for the whole bundle, inside the label's weight limit, which makes the bundle cheaper for them too.
Shipping: the buyer's line, with two exceptions you pay
By default you never touch shipping money. The buyer pays Poshmark one flat price at checkout ($6.49 for a label covering up to 5 lb, per Poshmark's shipping rates page, read 19 October 2026), Poshmark emails you a prepaid label, and you drop the parcel off. That is why the calculator has no shipping fields: there is nothing to enter.
Two choices move shipping into your column. A shipping discount, which you can attach to a listing or to an offer to the people who liked an item, is paid from your earnings. And a parcel over 5 lb needs a heavier label, which Poshmark's Shipping Policy also charges to you. If you use either, take that amount off the payout the calculator shows; it does not model them.
Texas Seller Fee Tax: the line this calculator leaves out
Since 1 October 2025 Poshmark charges Texas sales tax on part of its own fee for sellers whose return address is in Texas: the tax is applied to 80 per cent of the selling fee, under Texas rules for data-processing services. It is a tax on Poshmark's fee, not on your item, and it comes out of your earnings.
We do not model it because the rate depends on your local Texas tax rate, which we cannot know from a price. If you ship from Texas, your real fee is the one the calculator shows plus a small tax on most of it; Poshmark's help article on the Texas Seller Fee Tax works through an example.
Worked example: the reference sale on Poshmark
The waterfall above runs the reference sale used across all 19 calculators: a $40 item, $6 of shipping and $12 of materials. On Poshmark the $40 is over the threshold, so the fee is 20% of it, $8.00, and you keep $32.00 before your own costs and $20.00 after the materials. The $6 of shipping does not appear at all, because on Poshmark it is the buyer's payment to Poshmark for the label, not your income.
That last point is the one to remember when you compare marketplaces. A calculator that adds Poshmark's shipping to your revenue makes the payout look $6 larger than it is and the fee look a smaller share of it. The hub runs this same sale through every model with Poshmark's shipping left out, so the rows compare like with like.
What decides whether the item sells at that price
The fee is fixed; what you control is whether buyers find the listing. Poshmark gives you a title of up to 80 characters and up to 3 style tags of 25 characters each, which its help says buyers can search and browse by, plus a description of up to 1,500 characters (Poshmark's help and bulk-upload template, read 19 October 2026). Brand, size, colour and condition are picked from menus, and shoppers filter on them.
Poshmark's own title advice is to feature the brand, style name, category, size and colour, and its blog warns against keyword stuffing. Three style tags are not a small version of thirteen Etsy tags: they work best on style words (cut, aesthetic, occasion) that the title has no room for, rather than repeating the brand or the size.
