How Depop UK fees work in 2026
Depop's pricing has been in flux. Historically UK sellers paid a 10% selling fee plus payment processing of about 2.9% + £0.30. Depop has since been reducing or removing seller fees in several markets and shifting costs to a buyer fee charged at checkout. Because the model varies by account and keeps changing, this calculator makes the selling fee editable, so you can set it to 10%, to 0%, or to whatever your Depop app currently shows.
Optional Depop Boost promotes a listing for an extra percentage (around 8%) that only applies when a boosted item sells.
The formula
buyer total = item price + postage charged
Depop fees = selling fee + boost + processing (2.9% + £0.30)
profit = buyer total − item cost − postage cost − Depop fees
Depop fees = selling fee + boost + processing (2.9% + £0.30)
profit = buyer total − item cost − postage cost − Depop fees
Worked example
A £40 item with free postage, 10% selling fee, no boost: selling fee = £4.00; processing = 40 × 0.029 + 0.30 = £1.46; total = £5.46. If it cost £10 and postage £3, profit = 40 − 10 − 3 − 5.46 = £21.54. Set the selling fee to 0% to model the buyer-fee approach.
