Fee comparison

Vinted vs Poshmark Fee Calculator

Vinted charges the seller nothing. Poshmark takes 20% above $15. The gap is the whole Poshmark commission.

Vinted payout = the full listed price (no seller fee); Poshmark payout = price − $2.95 below $15, or price − 20% at and above $15. On a $30 sale Vinted pays you $30.00 against Poshmark's $24.00 — a $6.00 gap, which is simply Poshmark's entire commission. At $100 the gap is $20.00, and on a $12 item it is the $2.95 flat fee. No crossover exists: zero is never beaten. Vinted instead charges the buyer a Buyer Protection fee of about 5% + $0.70 on top of your price, so a $30 item costs the buyer $32.20. That is the real trade: Poshmark takes a fifth of your sale but puts it in front of a large, active US buyer base with prepaid flat-rate labels and a social selling loop, while Vinted moves the cost onto the buyer and leaves you to earn the audience. A higher realized price beats a lower fee — clearing $34 on Poshmark nets $27.20, which is less than $30 on Vinted, but clearing $40 nets $32.00, which is more.

Frequently asked questions

Which pays the seller more, Vinted or Poshmark?

Vinted, always — its seller fee is zero, so the gap equals Poshmark's entire commission. That is $2.95 on anything under $15, $6.00 on a $30 sale and $20.00 at $100. The question worth asking is not which fee is lower but which platform clears your item, and at what price.

What does Poshmark's 20% actually buy?

A large active US buyer base, a prepaid flat-rate shipping label the buyer pays for, and a social discovery loop (sharing, parties, offers) that surfaces listings without paid promotion. The fee is also all-inclusive — no separate payment processing line. Whether that is worth a fifth of the sale depends entirely on whether your items move faster there.

At what price does Poshmark match a Vinted sale?

Poshmark needs a 25% higher price to match, above the $15 threshold, since you keep 80% there. A $30 Vinted sale nets $30.00; matching it on Poshmark takes a $37.50 sale. Below $15 the flat $2.95 sets the bar instead — a $12 Vinted sale needs $14.95 on Poshmark. If your items reliably clear more than that premium there, Poshmark wins despite the fee.

Is the Vinted buyer fee a hidden cost to me?

Not directly — it never touches your payout. Indirectly it matters, because the buyer sees a total about 5% + $0.70 above your asking price, which can suppress offers and slow sell-through. This page shows that buyer total so you can weigh it, but no version of it is deducted from what you receive.
