Fee notes

Business-seller rates, re-sourced from eBay UK’s own business fee page (last updated 30 Sep 2026). The 12.9% flat rate carried here since July was WRONG across the board: the standard rate is 10.9%, clothing and home are 11.9%, and the big electronics groups are 9.9%. Several categories are marginal, charged on the portion up to each per-item threshold. The 0.35% regulatory operating fee is now a regulatory fee record rather than being smuggled in as a payment percentage, because it is charged on the total sale including postage. Not modelled: the reduced 10p per-order fee on some Collectables and Home listings, the trainers exception (7% at £100 or more), and the 2.75% currency conversion charge from 1 Dec 2026.

eBay (UK) fees — FAQ

What commission does eBay (UK) charge in 2026?

eBay (UK) charges 3–14.9% commission depending on category. Rates are verified against the official fee schedule (last checked 2026-10-15).

How do I calculate my eBay (UK) profit per sale?

Net profit = selling price (minus the GST/VAT included in it) minus eBay (UK) commission and fixed fees, minus your product cost and shipping. The calculator on this page runs that exact math with United Kingdom tax handling built in.

What is a good profit margin on eBay (UK)?

A healthy net margin after all fees and costs is 15–25%. Below 10%, a single fee change or ad-cost increase can erase your profit — use the reverse mode in our Channel Comparator to find the price that protects your target margin.
