How Amazon fees work
The main Amazon selling cost is the referral fee — a percentage Amazon takes from each sale. It is typically around 15%, but ranges from 8% to 20% depending on the category.
If you use Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), additional per-unit fulfillment and storage fees apply on top of the referral fee. This calculator estimates the referral fee; add any FBA cost to the item cost field.
