How to use the Poshmark Fee Calculator
- Choose “United States” or “Canada” in “Country”.
- Type the price in “Order price (after your discounts)”.
- Enter “Shipping the buyer pays (flat US$6.49, goes to the label)”. It does not change Poshmark’s commission; it only adds to the amount shown as the buyer’s total.
- In the US, tick “My Poshmark return address is in Texas” if it is, then set “Local sales tax rate at my address (%)”. Only the local part goes here, because the tool adds the 6.25% state rate.
- In Canada, enter “Canada: GST/HST rate of my province on the fee (%)”.
- Read “You keep (after platform fees)” and the fee table, which shows each fee, who pays it and the amount.
- Optional: fill in “Your costs (for profit)”: “What the item cost you”, “Your own postage or label cost” and “Packaging and other costs”. Profit, margin and return on cost then appear.
- Optional: under “Price you need”, choose a profit amount, margin or return on cost, enter a target, and the tool shows the lowest price that reaches it.
“Copy link to this result” puts your entries in the page address. “Download CSV” saves the result, and “Add to my ledger (this browser)” stores the sale in the browser-only ledger. The table “The same item on other platforms” compares nine platforms, Poshmark included, at default options.
How much does Poshmark take from a $100 sale?
Poshmark takes $20.00 from a $100 sale in the US, which is 20%, so you keep $80.00. With a Texas return address the Texas seller fee tax adds $1.32 when the local rate is 2%, so fees are $21.32 and you keep $78.68. That matches Poshmark’s own Texas example.
| Order price $100 | Commission | Tax on the fee | Fees you pay | You keep |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| US, not Texas | $20.00 | none | $20.00 | $80.00 |
| US, Texas, local rate 2% | $20.00 | $1.32 | $21.32 | $78.68 |
| Canada, C$100 with 13% HST | C$20.00 | C$2.60 | C$22.60 | C$77.40 |
The Texas tax is worked out on 80% of the fee: 80% of $20 is $16, taxed at the 6.25% state rate plus your local rate, 8.25% in Poshmark’s example. It has applied since 1 October 2025.
Where does the Poshmark fee change from $2.95 to 20%?
The flat fee covers orders under $15 and 20% covers $15 and over, so a $15.00 order pays $3.00 and a $14.99 order pays $2.95. In Canada the line is C$20, with a flat C$3.95 below it. The tool applies the line to the price you type.
| Order price | Country | Fee you pay | You keep |
|---|---|---|---|
| $14.99 | US | $2.95 | $12.04 |
| $15.00 | US | $3.00 | $12.00 |
| C$19.99 (5% GST) | Canada | C$4.15 | C$15.84 |
Selling at $14.99 therefore leaves you $0.04 more than selling at $15.00. Poshmark’s pages do not say whether the line uses the price before or after discounts, or with shipping, so check your own order screen near the line. In Canada, Poshmark charges GST/HST on the fee and its page gives no province rate. The default of 5% is the federal GST only.
What price leaves me a profit on Poshmark?
Put your costs in “Your costs (for profit)” and use “Price you need”. For a $12 item and a $10 profit goal, the lowest price is $27.50: Poshmark keeps $5.50, you keep $22.00, and $22.00 less the $12 cost is $10.00. The commission depends on the price, so the tool solves for it rather than adding a fixed amount.
With a cheaper item the flat fee matters. An item that cost $2 and a $10 profit goal gives $14.95: the fee is $2.95, you keep $12.00, and the profit is $10.00. A price just under $15 can beat one just over it, so read the goal result next to the fee table.
How this tool works and where the numbers come from
Poshmark takes a flat commission on orders under $15 (C$20 in Canada) and 20% from there up, deducted from the final order price. In Canada GST/HST is charged on the commission and paid by the seller; sellers with a Texas return address also pay a tax on 80% of the fee from 1 October 2025. The calculator applies those rules to the order price you enter after your own discounts.

Frequently asked questions
Does Poshmark charge fees on shipping?
The commission is taken from the order price. The buyer pays shipping separately, a flat US$6.49 in the US. Poshmark’s pages do not say how shipping affects the $15 line, so type the price without it.
Are there other Poshmark fees besides the commission?
In this tool, two: the Texas seller fee tax for Texas return addresses, and GST/HST on the commission in Canada. Anything outside those lines, payout options for example, is not calculated here and was not checked.
How do Poshmark fees compare with eBay and Mercari?
It depends on the price. The table “The same item on other platforms” shows fees and what you keep for nine platforms at default options. Read it at your own price, and open each platform’s page for its options. For eBay against Poshmark in one place, see the comparison page linked below.
What did Poshmark change in its fees recently?
The change this tool follows is the Texas seller fee tax from 1 October 2025. Poshmark’s fee pages show no date of their own, so any later change is listed in the rate changelog once seen.
Is the commission the same for every seller?
Poshmark’s pages say the standard rates apply to sellers using listing tools too. The tool uses those rates.
Can the other-platforms table take my postage into account?
Yes. Type your label cost into “Your own postage or label cost” and the last column of “The same item on other platforms” becomes “You keep after your postage”. Poshmark has nothing taken off, because its flat buyer shipping pays the label.
