| Poshmark commission | $2.95 (up to $14.99); 20% ($15.00 and up) | sale price. Flat $2.95 on sales under $15; 20% of the sale price at $15 and above. Charged on the item price only. |
Worked example
A $45 sale is $15 or more, so Poshmark takes 20% of $45 = $9.00. Your earnings are $45.00 − $9.00 = $36.00. After the $15 you paid for the item, profit is $21.00. Shipping and sales tax are paid by the buyer and do not change the fee.
How Poshmark fees work
Poshmark is a US resale app for clothing, shoes, accessories, beauty, and home goods. Most sellers are individuals clearing out closets or part-time resellers flipping thrifted and wholesale fashion. Listing is free and there is no monthly fee; you only pay when something sells.
The fee has two parts and only one applies to any sale. If the item sells for less than $15, Poshmark keeps a flat $2.95. If it sells for $15 or more, Poshmark keeps 20% of the sale price. That is the whole seller fee: there is no separate payment-processing charge, no listing fee, and nothing extra for using the prepaid shipping label.
The buyer pays a flat-rate shipping charge and any sales tax on top of your price, so neither affects what you owe. The only way shipping costs you money is if you choose to offer a shipping discount, in which case you cover the difference.
In October 2024 Poshmark briefly switched to a 5.99% seller fee plus a buyer fee, then reverted to the $2.95 / 20% structure after three weeks. That structure is what applies to US sales in 2026.
- Sales under $15: a flat $2.95 commission. On a $12 sale you receive $9.05, which works out to about 25%.
- Sales of $15 or more: 20% of the sale price. On a $45 sale the fee is $9.00 and you receive $36.00.
- The fee is charged on the item price only. Buyer-paid shipping and sales tax are collected separately and are not part of the 20%.
- No listing fees, no monthly subscription, and no separate payment-processing fee. The commission is the only deduction from a standard sale.
- Shipping is a flat rate paid by the buyer via a prepaid label. If you offer a shipping discount, the amount you discount comes out of your earnings.
- Offers you accept below your list price are charged at the same schedule: 20% of the accepted price, or $2.95 if the accepted price is under $15.
Ways to keep more of each Poshmark sale
- Price at $15 or more when you can. A $14.99 sale pays $12.04 after the $2.95 flat fee; a $15.00 sale pays $12.00. Between roughly $12 and $14.99, the flat fee takes a bigger share than 20% would.
- Bundle cheap items. Three $8 items sold separately cost $2.95 each ($8.85 in fees); the same items sold as a $24 bundle cost $4.80.
- Build the 20% into your list price. To clear a $20 profit on an item that cost you $15, you need to sell at $43.75 or more.
- Treat shipping discounts as a fee. Offering $3 off shipping on a $30 sale is the same to your payout as raising your fee from 20% to 30%.
- Counter lowball offers with the payout in mind: every $5 you drop the price costs you $4, not $5, because Poshmark's share drops too.
