Facebook Marketplace sellers quick answer.

Compare Facebook Marketplace local pickup and shipped-order fee assumptions before listing.

Short answer

The quick math

In this calculator, local pickup is modeled with no platform seller fee, while shipped orders use a 10% fee with a $0.80 minimum. On a $40 shipped item with $7.99 buyer-paid shipping, the shipped-order fee estimate is about $4.80 before item cost.

Assumptions used

  • $40 item price
  • $7.99 buyer-paid shipping
  • Local pickup modeled as no seller fee
  • Shipped order modeled at 10% with a $0.80 minimum

Use it before you decide

  1. Switch the fulfillment mode between local pickup and shipped order.
  2. Use the same price and shipping amount you would use on other marketplaces.
  3. Compare the payout against eBay, Mercari, and Depop.
