About ebayfee.com

A free fee and profit calculator for eBay sellers, and the guides that explain what the numbers mean.

What this site is

ebayfee.com works out what an eBay sale actually leaves you with. You put in the sale price, your costs and the options that apply to your account, and it returns the final value fee, the payment processing fee, your profit and your margin, with every line itemised so you can see where each pound went.

It covers 14 eBay marketplaces, with the UK as the default. There is no sign-up, no paywall and no limit on how many calculations you run.

Who runs it

ebayfee.com is operated by Revend Ltd. We sell on eBay ourselves, so the questions this site answers are ones we have to answer for our own listings: what a sale leaves once every fee has been taken, and whether a price still works after postage and VAT.

We publish and maintain both the calculator and the guides, and any mistake in them is ours to fix. If you need to reach the people behind the site, the contact page has the address.

Where the numbers come from

Every rate the calculator uses is stored in a single reference file rather than scattered through the code, so the figures shown on the site and the figures used in the arithmetic are always the same ones. When eBay changes a rate, one entry changes and the whole site follows.

Each marketplace follows the fee page eBay publishes on that site: the final value fee for each category, including the lower rates that apply above a price threshold, the per-order fee, the regulatory operating fee where there is one, and the international fee by buyer region. Where a site treats private and business sellers differently, the calculator has both. The pages were last read on 5 October 2026.

eBay lists some rates subcategory by subcategory, in tables that run to a hundred rows or more. Where several rows share a rate, the calculator groups them into one category and says what is in it, so the menu stays short without changing any figure.

The arithmetic itself runs on the server and is covered by an automated test suite that checks the UK results against worked examples from the published rates, so a change to the rates cannot silently break the totals.

What it cannot tell you

Fee rates vary by category, seller level, shop subscription, account status and promotions, and eBay changes them. The rates here are for sellers without a shop or store subscription. A few narrow subcategories are not listed, vehicles and property are charged differently altogether, and on eBay US and Canada the fee is charged on a total that includes the buyer’s sales tax, so enter the price with tax for those. The calculator models the common cases well and the edge cases approximately.

So treat the output as a good estimate for planning, not as a substitute for your eBay fee invoice. It is not financial, tax or legal advice, and it cannot tell you whether you should be registered for VAT or trading as a business — those are questions for a qualified accountant.

Corrections

If a rate here is wrong or out of date, we would genuinely like to know. Fee tables change more often than most sellers realise, and a calculator that quietly drifts out of date is worse than no calculator at all. There is a contact page, and corrections that come with a link to the relevant eBay fee page get fixed fastest.
