Poshmark
The formula
Under $15: fee = $2.95
$15 or more: fee = sold price × 20%
Earnings = sold price − fee − any shipping discount
Worked examples
| Sold for $40 | fee 40 × 0.20 = $8.00, earnings $32.00 |
|---|---|
| Sold for $12 | flat fee $2.95, earnings $9.05 |
| Sold for $15 | fee 15 × 0.20 = $3.00, earnings $12.00 |
The flat fee is a bigger share of very cheap items: $2.95 on a $5 sale is 59%. Bundling small items into one listing, or pricing them at $15, often leaves you with more.

Questions people ask
How much does Poshmark take?
A flat $2.95 on sales under $15, and 20% on sales of $15 or more. You keep the rest.
Who pays shipping on Poshmark?
The buyer pays Poshmark's shipping rate and Poshmark emails you a prepaid label, so standard shipping does not come out of your earnings. If you offer a shipping discount to close a sale, the discount does come out of your earnings.
Is the 20% charged on the price I listed or the price it sold for?
On the price it sold for. If you accept a $30 offer on a $40 listing, the fee is 20% of $30.
Is there anything else to pay?
Not on a normal sale. Sellers in Texas may see a state tax added on Poshmark's fee from October 2025, which shows up in the sales report. Check yours if you sell from Texas.
