How much is shipping on Depop, and who pays it?

With no US selling fee, shipping is usually the biggest single cost on a Depop sale. Typical US label costs:

• Small parcel, under 1 lb (a t-shirt or jeans in a poly mailer): about $4.50–$6 on a Depop Ship USPS label
• 1–3 lb (hoodie, boots, denim jacket): about $7–$10
• Over 3 lb (coats, multi-item bundles): $12 and up — weigh it before you list
• Who pays: the buyer pays shipping on most domestic Depop sales; you only absorb it if you offer free shipping or fund a bundle discount

• Depop Ship labels are prepaid and discounted, and the cost is shown to the buyer at checkout — set the weight honestly, because an underweight label gets you an adjustment bill.
• Arranging your own shipping is allowed and can be cheaper on heavy items, but you lose Depop's tracking integration on seller protection.
• Payment processing (3.3% + $0.45) is charged on the total the buyer pays, which includes shipping — so shipping does cost you a few cents in processing even when the buyer funds the label.
• Free shipping raises conversion but comes straight out of your margin: a $6 label on a $20 item is a 30% hit.

In short: US sellers pay no Depop selling fee, just 3.3% + $0.45 processing, and shipping typically runs $4.50–$10 domestically, normally paid by the buyer.

What to watch out for

• US sellers pay no selling fee; the 3.3% + $0.45 processing fee applies to the item price plus shipping and taxes.
• Sales from Boosted Listings add a 12% boosting fee — factor that in before boosting low-margin items.
• Depop's audience skews toward Y2K, vintage and streetwear; the same item can net more here than on eBay even after fees.

Methodology and sources

Every percentage and flat fee on this page was read from Depop's own published seller fee schedule, not from third-party summaries. Worked examples use those exact rates.

Last verified: October 7, 2026. Marketplaces change fees several times a year, so each source page below is re-checked on a recurring basis and this date is updated when the figures are confirmed or corrected. If you spot a stale rate, the official page linked below is always authoritative over this one.

Know the sold price before you buy

Fees only matter if the item sells for what you expect. FlipAI lets you take a photo of any item or scan its barcode to instantly see live market prices from eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Amazon, and more — so you can check what it's worth before you commit.
