If you have an eBay Store, fees are different for Store subscribers. Please read this article.
* Final value fee is calculated as a percentage of the total amount of the sale, plus $0.30 per order.
Every month, you get up to 250 zero insertion fee listings, or more if you have an eBay Store. Learn more about how zero insertion fee listings work, including the terms and exclusions for those listings.
After you’ve used your zero insertion fee allowance, insertion fees are:
Non-refundable if your item doesn’t sell
Charged per listing and per category. So, if you list your item in two categories, you’ll pay an insertion fee for the second category too
Charged for the original listing and each time you choose to relist your item
Charged per listing if you create duplicate auction-style listings for identical items. Read more about our Duplicate listings policy
Charged only once per listing for listings with multiple items. Read more about listings with multiple items and listings with variations
Good ‘Til Cancelled listings are fixed price listings that renew automatically once per calendar month. eBay charges an insertion fee and applicable optional listing upgrade fees when you list your item for the first time, and each time it renews. These listings count towards your monthly zero insertion fee listings. Fee amounts are based on the terms in effect when the listing goes live and when it renews.
eBay charges one final value fee when your item sells, and you don’t have to worry about third-party payment processing fees. This fee is calculated as a percentage of the total amount of the sale, plus $0.30 per order.
The total amount of the sale includes the item price, any handling charges, the shipping service the buyer selects, sales tax, and any other applicable fees. If you offer 1-day or international shipping as well as a cheaper or free option (like domestic shipping), the total amount of the sale is calculated based on the cheapest domestic option you offer. If you only offer 1-day or international shipping but no cheaper option like domestic shipping, the total amount of the sale is calculated based on the service the buyer chooses.
If you’re in China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, or Vietnam and your item isn’t located in the US, the total amount of the sale is always calculated based on the shipping option your buyer chooses.
An order is defined as any number of items purchased by the same buyer at checkout with the same shipping method.
If you need to refund the buyer or cancel the sale, you may be eligible for a credit of the final value fee provided that you refund the buyer in full in resolution of a return or cancellation request. The $0.30 per order fee will also be credited.
Prorated final value fee credits for partial refunds
Starting May 2022, when you issue a partial refund to a buyer, eBay will automatically credit a prorated portion of your Final value fee based on the adjusted total amount of the sale. Along with this, eBay will automatically credit prorated portions of other applicable fees including Promoted Listings Standard and international fees.
Fees such as the $0.30 per-order fee, Promoted Listings Express fee, and Promoted Listings Advanced fee will not be refunded. eBay wants to support your efforts to make things right for your buyers and adjust your fees accordingly.

If your items are relisted automatically, you’ll be charged insertion and optional listing upgrade fees each time your item is relisted.
Please keep in mind that not all optional listing upgrades are available with every listing tool and not all optional listing upgrades may be displayed across all our sites, services, applications, and tools.
You may be charged final value fees if you violate our policy of buying or selling outside of eBay, or eBay may apply additional final value fees if you are not meeting our performance expectations.
If you offer or reference your contact information or ask a buyer for their contact information in the context of buying or selling outside of eBay, you’ll be charged a final value fee based on the total amount of the sale even if your item doesn’t sell. In this situation, the total amount of the sale is determined as follows:
Additional final value fees may apply on sales in the following circumstances:
Any additional final value fees will be calculated as a percentage of the total amount of the sale. eBay will indicate which listings are subject to additional fees on your Account Summary.
Note: If your account isn’t meeting our minimum seller performance standards and you’re rated Very High in your rate of ‘Item not as described’ return requests, you’ll only be charged the additional final value fee for not meeting our minimum seller performance standards.
Your buyer may open a payment dispute with their payment institution if they believe there’s an issue with their order. A payment dispute is when a buyer initiates a chargeback or other type of dispute with their payment institution (for example, their credit card provider or PayPal). The final decision for refunding the buyer is made by the payment institution.
If you’re found responsible for the disputed amount, eBay charges a Dispute fee for each dispute. The amount of the Dispute fee depends on which eBay site the listing was created on. When you list an item on ebay.com, the Dispute fee is $20.00 (before sales taxes). If you accept the payment dispute and issue a refund, eBay will waive the Dispute fee, and you’ll be responsible for the refund amount issued to your buyer.
If your registered address is in the US, eBay charges an International fee if either:
The delivery address for the item (entered by the buyer during checkout) is outside the US, or
The buyer's registered address is outside the US (regardless of the delivery address for the item)
This fee is calculated as 1.65% of the total amount of the sale and is automatically deducted from your sales.
If your registered address is not in the US, please refer to the fee page for your country or region of residence for your International fee information.

Fixed price listing example
Delivery address is Taiwan (outside your registered address country).
Total amount of the sale (including the shipping service and sales tax) is $102.
Your seller account is meeting our performance expectations at the time your item sells.
You have used a fixed price listing with no optional listing upgrades to attract more buyers.
Your total fees for this item:
Final value fee: 10.7% of $102 + $0.30 = $10.91
International fee: 3.3% of $102 = $3.37
You make $87.42 or approximately 86% of the sale price.
Net order proceeds €72.84 and takes into account both the exchange rate and the currency conversion charge.
Not all features, listing categories, and optional upgrades are available for managed payments sellers. Learn more about managed payments on eBay.
If you use supplemental services, such as buying and printing shipping labels on eBay, or if you participate in any of our advertising programs, additional terms and conditions may apply, and you’ll pay any costs or fees associated with those services. Details of the costs or fees will be on your monthly financial statement and eBay will charge the payment method you’ve set up on your seller account.
All fees are in US dollars.
Sellers may be invoiced for fees under certain circumstances.
Fees may apply if you end your auction-style listing early.
The fees on this page apply to listings on ebay.com. If you list an item on another eBay site (for example, ebay.com.au or ebay.co.uk), the fees for that site will apply.
Seller fees don’t purchase exclusive rights to web pages on eBay. eBay may, in its sole discretion and without consent from or payment to sellers, display third-party advertisements (including links and references thereto) and listings from other sellers on any eBay page.
Depending on the tax legislation of your country of residency, local Value Added Tax (VAT), Goods and Services Tax (GST) or similar consumption tax might apply in addition to your eBay fees.
