Depop Fee Calculator Australia

This calculator works out what you keep from a Depop sale as a seller based in Australia, in Australian dollars. Depop charges no selling fee to sellers in Australia, the UK or the US, so for an Australian seller the main cost is Depop Payments processing, run through Stripe: 2.6% + A$0.30 on the item price plus shipping and any applicable taxes. If the sale came from a Boosted Listing, Depop adds a boosting fee of 8% for sellers outside the UK and US, which includes Australia. It is charged on the item price, and on the shipping cost too unless you used a Depop shipping label. All fees come off before your proceeds are paid to your bank account, and they are reversed if the sale is refunded. Rates were checked against Depop's help centre on 11 November 2026.

Depop's fees for Australian sellers

processing = 2.6% × (item + shipping) + A$0.30
boosting = 8% × item [+ 8% × shipping if you did not use a Depop shipping label]
you receive = item + shipping − processing − boosting

Worked examples

Remember that the shipping the buyer pays is not profit: it pays for the parcel. Enter your actual postage cost in the calculator and it shows what the item itself earned.

Boosting: when 8% is worth it

A boost costs nothing unless the boosted listing sells, so the question is whether it brings a sale you would not otherwise have made, or a faster one. On a A$40 item an 8% boost costs A$3.20 with a Depop label. If boosting means you can sell at A$40 instead of dropping to A$35, it more than pays for itself. If the item would have sold at the same price within a few days anyway, the boost is a straight cost.

Shipping makes a difference. When you use your own courier or Australia Post account instead of a Depop label, the 8% also applies to the shipping you charged, which adds A$0.80 on a A$10 shipping charge. If you boost often, compare Depop's label price with your own postage before deciding.

Pricing to keep a target amount

not boosted: list price = (target + A$0.30) ÷ 0.974 − shipping
boosted with a Depop label: list price = (target + A$0.30 − 0.974 × shipping) ÷ 0.894

To keep A$40 for the item, with A$10 shipping that covers the label, list at about A$41.64 if you are not boosting, or about A$45.37 if the listing is boosted and you use a Depop label. The target field does this calculation for you.

Bundles: one processing fee per transaction

Depop's help page says payment processing fees apply once per bundle transaction. For an Australian seller with no selling fee, that makes bundles cheaper to sell: three A$15 items sold separately cost A$0.69 each in processing, A$2.07 in total, while the same three items in one A$45 bundle cost A$1.47, because the A$0.30 fixed part is charged only once. Offering a bundle discount smaller than the saved fees and postage can still leave you ahead.

Depop in Australia compared with the UK

Australian sellers pay a lower processing rate than UK sellers, 2.6% + A$0.30 against 2.9% + £0.30, and a lower boosting rate: 8% against the 12% that UK and US sellers pay on new listings boosted from 23 March 2026. Sellers outside the UK, US and Australia pay a 10% selling fee and process payments through PayPal, so Australia is one of Depop's cheaper markets to sell in. Switch to the UK calculator with the country switcher to compare.

Refunds, GST and what the calculator leaves out

• Refunds: Depop says that when a sale is refunded, all fees, including processing and boosting, are reversed automatically for Depop Payments transactions.
• GST: Depop does not publish a separate GST line for Australian sellers on its fee page, so the calculator adds none. If you are registered for GST, turn on the switch to deduct one-eleventh of the sale as GST you owe.
• Shipping label prices are set by Depop and the carrier; enter the amount you actually pay as your shipping cost.
• Income tax on your profit is not included.

How to use this calculator

1. Enter the item price and shipping. Processing applies to both.
2. Add your costs. What you paid for the item and the postage.
3. Set boosting and label. Boosted sales add 8%, also on shipping if you did not use a Depop label.
4. Read what you keep. Or enter a target to get the price to list at.
