How the math works
Read from Poshmark’s own Fee Policy, shipping posts and support pages; each fee is rounded to the cent.
- Seller fee on the final order price$2.95 flat if the order is under $15.00; 20% × order price from $15.00The order price is the item or bundle price after your offer or discount; shipping and tax are not in it. “For Sellers, after your item sells, we deduct a small fee from the final order price.” Source: Poshmark Legal Center (Fee Policy v1.7, Seller Policy, Shipping Policy) (page dated November 25, 2024), read October 28, 2026

- Net payout, profit and the $15 linenet = order price − seller fee − shipping charges you pay − transfer fee · profit = net − item costThe “price to keep” and break-even answers are the lowest whole-cent price that reaches the amount — which is why prices just above $15 can net less than $14.99.

Not modeled here
Seller-funded shipping discounts: Not modeled — The amounts aren’t confirmed on a Poshmark page we could read (checked October 28, 2026).
Texas tax on fees: Not modeled — Poshmark’s help article on it couldn’t be read (checked October 28, 2026).
How the numbers are checked
- Read on the platform’s own page. Every rate, minimum and cap comes from the platform’s help or policy page, with the date it was read. News sites and forum posts wait until the platform confirms them.
- Tested to the cent. Every calculator runs on one engine, and its arithmetic is covered by automated tests with worked examples — so the same sale gives the same numbers on every page.
- Honest about gaps. A rule that can’t be confirmed shows “Not modeled” with the reason. A rule with two fair readings shows a range, and the comparison ranks by the lower one.
- Dated and logged. Rates are re-checked on a schedule; every fee and price change goes into the public fee change log with its effective date.
