Disclaimer
The platform has the last word. Every fee, payout and price on this site is an estimate built from the platform’s published rules on the date shown. What the marketplace, payment app or carrier actually charges you is what counts. Check its own fee page before you rely on a number.
Not financial, tax or legal advice
Seller Fee Desk provides calculators that do arithmetic on the numbers you enter, and guides that explain in general terms how marketplace fees, shipping costs and tax rules work for online sellers. This is general information for education. It is not financial, tax, accounting or legal advice, and it does not take your own accounts, income, state or circumstances into account.
Seller Fee Desk is an independent site run by an individual based in the United States. It is not run by a tax professional, accountant or attorney, and the guides have not been reviewed by one. Tax rules — Form 1099-K reporting, self-employment tax, deductions, sales tax registration — depend on your whole situation and differ by state. Your tax depends on your whole return: ask a tax professional, the IRS or your state’s revenue department before you rely on a tax treatment.
Fees change
Marketplaces and payment apps change their fees, tiers, minimums and shipping programs often, and some changes take effect with little notice. Each tool shows the date its rates were last checked against the platform’s own pages, and the fee change log records the changes we have confirmed. A rate can still change between our check and your sale. Platforms may also round differently by a cent.
Where a rule could not be confirmed on the platform’s own pages, the tools say “Not modeled” or show a range rather than guess. Fees, discounts or penalties specific to your account may not be reflected at all.
No guaranteed results
We work to keep the tools and guides accurate, and each guide lists its sources with the date they were read. We can’t guarantee that everything on the site is complete, current or free of errors, or that any price, payout, profit or tax outcome will follow from using it. Example values in the tools are examples, not recommendations.
Sources change
Fee pages, USPS prices, IRS mileage rates and thresholds are updated from time to time. Guides show when they were last updated and link to their sources. If a source and a guide disagree, the source wins. Please tell us so we can correct the guide.
