Depop Fee Calculator

Depop charges sellers differently in the US and the UK, which is why the same item can be worth clearly more depending on where your buyer is.

This calculator defaults to the US structure of a small percentage plus a fixed fee, and you can switch the rate to the UK 10% model in the fee panel with one edit.

A typical order priced at $28.00 with $4.50 of shipping charged to the buyer costs you $6.00 in product and $4.90 to ship and pack.

Line	Amount
Buyer pays	$32.50
Total platform fees	-$1.52
Product, shipping and other costs	-$10.90
Net profit	$20.08 (61.78% margin)
Break-even price	$7.24

What sellers get wrong on Depop

Pricing against the headline fee only. The commission is rarely the whole cost: fixed fees, payment processing and advertising add several points on top.
Forgetting what shipping really costs. If you charge the buyer less than the label and packaging actually cost, every sale quietly loses money.
Ignoring returns. A 3% return rate on a 20% margin product removes a sixth of your profit. Put it in the reserve field.
Never checking the break-even price. Knowing the lowest price you can accept on an offer is the difference between a negotiation and a loss.
