How it works

Each option's monthly cost is the Store subscription, plus final value fees on every order, plus insertion fees for listings beyond the free allowance. Final value fees use your category's rate for your Store level. No Store and Starter pay the standard rates: 13.6% in most categories, on the total including shipping and tax, up to $7,500. Basic and higher pay the Store rates: 12.7% in most categories, up to $2,500. Every order also pays $0.40, or $0.30 at $10 or less. Insertion fees: no Store gets 250 free listings a month, then $0.35 each; Starter 250, then $0.30; Basic 1,000, then $0.25; Premium 10,000, then $0.10; Anchor 25,000, then $0.05. Enterprise, with 100,000, is available only with yearly renewal at $2,999.95 a month. The calculator assumes every order is your average order and every listing is a fixed price listing.

Worked examples

  1. 80 orders a month at $25 with 300 listings, monthly renewal: no Store costs $321.50 ($304.00 in final value fees and $17.50 in insertion fees). A Basic Store costs $314.35 ($27.95 subscription and $286.40 in final value fees, no insertion fees), $7.15 less.
  2. 20 orders a month at $25 with 100 listings: no Store costs $76.00, a Starter Store $83.95 and a Basic Store $99.55. At this order size, Basic costs less than no Store only from 128 orders a month.
  3. 1,000 orders a month at $25 with 3,000 listings: no Store costs $4,762.50, Basic $4,107.95 and Premium $3,654.95. Premium's 10,000 free listings remove the $500 in insertion fees that Basic still pays.

Common questions

Is an eBay Store worth it?

It depends on your orders and listings. A Basic Store at $27.95 a month saves 0.9% of each sale in most categories and gives 1,000 free listings instead of 250. Before counting any listing fees it saves, it pays for itself from 128 orders a month at a $25 average order, from 63 at $50 and from 32 at $100. Enter your own numbers to see your break-even.

How much does an eBay Store cost?

With monthly renewal: Starter $7.95, Basic $27.95, Premium $74.95 and Anchor $349.95 a month. With yearly renewal: Starter $4.95, Basic $21.95, Premium $59.95, Anchor $299.95 and Enterprise $2,999.95 a month. eBay charges the subscription monthly either way.

Does a Starter Store lower eBay fees?

Not the final value fee. Starter pays the same rates as no Store and gets the same 250 free listings; only the insertion fee after those drops from $0.35 to $0.30. That covers the $7.95 subscription only from 410 listings a month, or 350 with yearly renewal.

Which fees does an eBay Store lower?

Final value fees and insertion fees. In most categories the final value fee falls from 13.6% to 12.7%, and in some, such as cameras and cell phones, to 9.35%. The lower 2.35% rate starts above $2,500 instead of $7,500. Free listings rise from 250 a month to 1,000 on Basic and 10,000 on Premium.

Does the per-order fee change with a Store?

No. Every order pays $0.40, or $0.30 if the order is $10 or less, with or without a Store.

What does this calculator assume?

Every order is the same size and in one category. Every listing is a fixed price listing counted against the all-categories allowance, though some select categories get more free listings. No Top Rated Plus discount, promoted listings or listing upgrades. It does not value a Store's other benefits, such as promotion tools.
