Fees & financials
We’re committed to building a vibrant marketplace that simplifies selling and delivers more buyers to you. To support that goal, we adjust our selling fees from time to time.
We continue to look for ways to improve our marketplace to help you manage your business more efficiently, accelerate your sales velocity, and bring more buyers to you. For example, we recently launched spendable funds, a new way for you to pay for items on eBay using proceeds from your sales, and introduced additional payment options for higher priced items.
To help support changes we’re making to our marketplace that benefit all eBay users, we're increasing some final value fees. At the same time, we’re decreasing the cost of some optional listing upgrades that give buyers more purchase options and make it easier for you to manage your listings.
We’re also expanding the fee credit we give you when you provide great service by fully refunding a buyer’s return. And as we continue to roll out eBay International Shipping, we handle the international logistics for you at no additional cost, while also waiving the International fee for sellers.
Final value fee changes
Starting February 15, 2023, final value fees will increase in some categories. The maximum increase any category will see is 0.35%. Some categories will remain unchanged, including Jewelry & Watches and Women’s Bags & Handbags.
We strive to maintain the lowest selling fees in the industry. And remember—when you sell on eBay, we don’t charge a separate fee for payment processing.

Expanding our per-order fee credit
Last year we announced that we’ll give your $0.30 per-order fee back to you when you approve a buyer’s cancellation request before you ship your item. Based on positive feedback we received from sellers, we’re expanding the per-order fee credit when you provide excellent service to the buyer by issuing a full refund. Starting February 15, 2023, when a buyer returns an item for any of the following reasons, we’ll extend the $0.30 credit for returns that you voluntarily refunded.
- Ordered by mistake
- Don’t like it
- Changed my mind
- Doesn't fit
- Found a better price
We’ll also credit the $0.30 per-order fee when you issue a full refund of the order through the Send refund flow.
Changes to Optional Listing Upgrades
Starting February 15, 2023, our Buy It Now listing upgrade for auction-format listings and the Scheduled listing upgrade will be free for all eBay sellers. The Buy It Now upgrade allows you to set an item price and gives buyers the option to purchase your item immediately so they don’t have to wait for your auction to end, and the Scheduled listing upgrade gives you control to decide when to start your listings.
To simplify optional listing upgrades, Bold and Gallery Plus listing upgrade fees will no longer be based on the auction starting price or Buy it Now item price. As of February 15, 2023, both optional listing upgrades will be charged one low fee.
Auction-style listings: 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 10-day durations
Fixed price listings: Good ‘Til Canceled
eBay International Shipping continues to roll out
We handle the logistics for you and waive the International fee for sellers
eBay International Shipping is a new shipping service that removes the challenges and complexities associated with international shipping for US sellers. eBay International Shipping allows you to reach more buyers hassle-free—with no International fee for sellers.
eBay International Shipping keeps all of the benefits of the Global Shipping Program that you’re already familiar with, such as shipping to a US hub. Now with eBay International Shipping, once your item is at our hub, you will receive enhanced protections against claims like “Item not received,” chargebacks, and negative or neutral feedback.
Sellers will continue to be enrolled in phases over the next few months. You’ll be notified via email and Seller Hub when you’re eligible.
Sellers are talking about the 2023 Winter Seller Update in the eBay Community.
