Hidden fees to watch
- Offsite Ads are mandatory once you pass $10k/year: 12-15% of the order total, capped at $100.
- The 3% + $0.25 payment fee applies to the tax-inclusive total, so buyers in sales-tax states cost you slightly more.
- The $0.20 listing fee renews every 4 months or on every sale for multi-quantity listings.
- Currency conversion adds ~2.5% if your shop currency differs from your bank currency.
