- Check “Seller country”: the page opens on United States. Choose United Kingdom for £ rates.
- Change “Item price” from 30 to your price.
- Enter “Shipping the buyer pays”, or leave 0 if postage is in the price.
- Enter “Sales tax / VAT on the order (%)” if one applies.
- Tick “The sale came from a boosted listing (12%)” only if it did. Then leave “I ship with a Depop shipping label” ticked if you used a Depop label.
- Read “You keep (after platform fees)” and the table with its Fee, Paid by and Amount columns. The line above the table gives total fees as a share of what the buyer pays you.
- To compare, scroll to “The same item on other platforms” and read the Fees and “You keep (after platform fees)” columns for your price.
“Copy link to this result” stores your entries in the page address, and “Download CSV” saves the figures.

How much does Depop take from a $30 sale in the US?
Depop takes $1.44 from a $30 US sale, which leaves $28.56. That is payment processing at 3.3% plus $0.45, and nothing else. A boosted sale adds the 12% boosting fee of $3.60, so fees are $5.04 and you keep $24.96.
| Fee on a $30 US sale | Paid by | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Selling fee | not charged | $0.00 |
| Payment processing (3.3% + $0.45) | You | $1.44 |
| Boosting fee (12%, boosted sales only) | You | $3.60 |
Processing is 3.3% of $30, which is $0.99, plus $0.45. Depop applies the boosting fee to new listings from 23 March 2026.
What changes when shipping or tax is added?
Processing is charged on item price, shipping and tax together, so extra shipping raises it. With $5 of buyer-paid shipping, processing on $35 is $1.61 and you keep $33.39. The boosting fee covers the item price, plus shipping if you did not use a Depop label. Boosted and without a label, $35 gives $4.20 and you keep $29.19.
For the UK, take a £40 boosted item with £3 shipping and a Depop label. Processing on £43 is £1.55 (2.9% plus £0.30) and the boosting fee is £4.80, which is 12% of £40. You keep £36.65.
How much does Depop take from a sale in the UK?
On a £30 UK sale with no shipping or tax, processing is £1.17 (2.9% of £30 is £0.87, plus £0.30) and you keep £28.83. Choose “United Kingdom” in “Seller country” to see it. The boosting fee is 12% there too.
Why does a small Depop sale lose a bigger share?
Part of the processing fee is flat. On a $10 US sale it is $0.78 (3.3% of $10 is $0.33, plus $0.45), so you keep $9.22 and fees take 7.8% of the price, against 4.2% ($2.10) on a $50 sale and 3.75% on a $100 sale, where you keep $96.25. Boosted, the $10 sale adds $1.20 and you keep $8.02.
Does the buyer pay a Depop fee too?
Yes. The buyer pays a marketplace fee of up to 5% of the item price plus up to $1 or £1. Depop does not publish the exact amount, shows it at checkout and refunds it if the item is refunded. It comes out of the buyer’s payment, not yours, so it is not in your result.
