Mercari Fee Calculator
How Does the Mercari Fees Calculator Work?
Vendoo’s Mercari Fee Calculator removes the guesswork by letting sellers enter their item details to instantly calculate profit per sale.
Simply enter the item details, and the Mercari Fee Calculator will do the rest:
1. Item Price: Enter your item’s sale price.
2. Item Cost: Add your cost of goods.
3. Shipping Charge: Enter the shipping amount paid by the buyer.
4. Shipping Cost: Input your actual shipping cost.
Once these details are entered, the calculator automatically displays your total Mercari fees, estimated earnings, and profit margin. This allows sellers to adjust pricing before listing, rather than discovering unexpected deductions after a sale.

Smart Pricing Considerations
Smart Pricing is a pricing tool that automatically lowers your item price over time until it reaches a minimum you set. Smart Pricing does not have a separate fee, but it can reduce profitability if minimum prices are set too low.
Using the Mercari calculator alongside Smart Pricing helps sellers confirm that even the lowest automated price still covers fees, shipping, and the cost of goods.
Mercari Fees Explained
Understanding Mercari’s fee structure is essential to pricing correctly. Below is a clear breakdown of the fees Mercari charges sellers in the United States.
Selling Fee: 10% of the sale price
Mercari charges a flat 10% selling fee when an item sells. The fee is calculated on the item price plus any shipping cost paid by the buyer.
Mercari fees are competitive! The selling fee is the only fee charged to sellers on Mercari. There are no listing fees or payment processing fees. Buyer Protection fees and sales tax are paid entirely by the buyer and are not subject to seller fees.
Shipping Fees & Costs
Shipping fees vary depending on how you choose to ship your item. Sellers can either:
- Use a Mercari prepaid shipping label; or
- Offer free shipping and ship on their own
Mercari prepaid labels are priced based on weight, dimensions, and carrier. When using a Mercari label, sellers can choose to offer free shipping by paying for the label themselves or charge the buyer for shipping. Be sure to accurately weigh and measure your item before listing, as packages that exceed the selected label may result in additional charges.
Mercari Fee Tables
Example Profit Calculation
Consider a typical Mercari sale to see how fees add up. These jeans sold for $30. The total buyer cost is $41.33, and the seller's earnings are $26.28 (minus cost of goods to determine profit).
The seller fee for this order is $3.72, calculated as 10% of the item price ($30) plus the buyer-paid shipping charge ($7.29).
