How Depop fees work in 2026
Depop's selling fee is zero for US sellers (removed in July 2024; the same change applies in the UK). The only deduction from your payout is payment processing at 3.3% + $0.45 per sale. Listing is free. Buyers pay a separate marketplace fee of up to 5% of the item price plus up to $1 at checkout, which does not come out of your payout but does make your listing look more expensive to the buyer.
The one optional cost is Boosted Listings, Depop's promoted-listing product, which adds roughly 12% when a boosted item sells. That is advertising, not a core fee, so this calculator leaves it out.
The formulas
- Payment processing = sale price × 3.3% + $0.45.
- You keep = sale price − processing fee.
- What to list at to keep a target = (target + $0.45) ÷ (1 − 0.033).
Worked examples
You sell a jacket for $100. Processing is $100 × 3.3% + $0.45 = $3.75, so you keep $96.25, an effective fee rate of 3.75%.
You sell a tee for $25. Processing is $25 × 3.3% + $0.45 = $1.28, and you keep $23.72, a 5.1% effective rate. The fixed $0.45 weighs more on small sales, so Depop still beats Poshmark's $2.95 flat fee here.
To keep exactly $50, list at ($50 + $0.45) ÷ (1 − 0.033) = $52.17.
Ways to pay less
There is almost nothing to cut: the 3.3% + $0.45 processing is the only core cost. On low-price items, the fixed $0.45 is the biggest drag, so avoid listing under $10 if you can bundle instead. Skip Boosted Listings unless the 12% extra fee pays for itself in a faster sale at a higher price. And remember the buyer's marketplace fee (up to 5% + $1) is added on top of your price, so your $100 listing costs the buyer up to $106.

Limitations
Rates are Depop's published US fees and can change. The zero selling fee applies to sellers in the US and sales in USD; terms differ in some markets. The buyer's marketplace fee and Boosted Listing fees are excluded because they do not reduce your payout. This tool covers US sales only.
