Mercari Fee Calculator

Mercari charges the seller 10%. The 3.6% Buyer Protection fee shows up on the same sale but is paid by the buyer — this calculator lists it separately so it never gets subtracted from your payout by mistake.

How Mercari fees are calculated

Seller fee: 10% of the item price plus the shipping the buyer paid.
Buyer Protection fee: 3.6% of the same amount — charged to the buyer on top, not taken out of your payout.
No payment-processing fee and no listing fee. Payout options (Instant Pay, rejected-withdrawal fees) are not sale fees and are not modeled.
Freshness warning: Mercari changed its entire fee model in January 2025, the second reversal in about ten months. We re-check this page against Mercari's Help Center regularly — and you should confirm there before relying on a figure.
