Mercari Fee Calculator: See Your Real Payout

Mercari charges a flat 10% selling fee on the item price plus any shipping the buyer pays you. That is the only percentage-based fee sellers pay; the separate payment processing fee sellers used to pay has been removed.

No. Mercari removed the seller-side payment processing fee. Buyers now pay a separate buyer protection fee at checkout instead, and it does not reduce your payout at all.

It is a flat fee charged when you cash out your balance, separate from the 10% selling fee. A standard bank transfer costs a couple of dollars, while Instant Pay, which sends funds to a debit card within minutes, costs a bit more. Both defaults are editable above if your account shows different amounts.

Yes. Mercari calculates its selling fee on the item price plus whatever shipping amount you charge the buyer, not on the item price alone. If you offer a higher shipping charge, the fee amount goes up along with it.

Either works, but if you buy a label through Mercari, its cost is deducted directly from your payout, so include it in the calculator to see your true net. If you ship independently, your label cost happens outside Mercari entirely, so track it in your own records instead.

It depends on how badly you need the cash immediately. For occasional sellers, the extra couple of dollars per cash-out is a small convenience cost. For high-volume sellers cashing out constantly, batching payouts with the free-of-percentage standard transfer instead usually keeps more money in your pocket over time.
