How this calculator works

Formula: Mercari seller fee = 10% of item price plus buyer-paid shipping. Profit = item price + buyer-paid shipping - seller fee - withdrawal fee - product cost - seller-paid shipping - packaging.

This page is built for marketplace sellers who need a quick before-listing payout check. Enter your sale price, shipping assumptions and product cost, then adjust optional fees that apply to your exact order.

Fee schedules can change by country, account status, listing type and promotion settings. Use this calculator as a planning estimate and verify final fees in the platform's official seller documentation before pricing high-value items.
