Fee structure
How Facebook Marketplace fees work in 2026
10% selling fee
Applies to all orders shipped through Facebook's checkout. Calculated on the total collected (item price + shipping you charge), not just the item price.
$0.80 minimum fee
Every shipped order has at least an $0.80 fee, even for very cheap items. A $5 item with $3 shipping = $8 total. 10% would be $0.80, so the minimum applies exactly.
Free for local pickup
Zero selling fee, zero listing fee, zero monthly cost for local sales paid outside Facebook's checkout. The cheapest way to sell anything online.
Fee doubled in 2024
Meta raised the fee from 5% ($0.40 min) to 10% ($0.80 min) on April 15, 2024. This is the most important rate change for Marketplace sellers in the platform's history.
Facebook Marketplace selling fee calculator — 10% shipped, $0 local (2026)
Facebook Marketplace charges a 10% selling fee on orders shipped through Facebook's checkout, with an $0.80 minimum per order. The fee is calculated on the total amount the buyer pays — item price plus any shipping you charge — not just the item price alone. This is an important distinction: a $40 item with $10 shipping collects $50 total, and Facebook takes $5.00 (10%), not just $4.00 (10% of item).
Local pickup is completely free
Any sale completed outside Facebook's checkout — cash in person, Venmo, Zelle, bank transfer — carries zero selling fee. There is no listing fee, no monthly subscription, and no final value fee for local transactions. This makes Facebook Marketplace the cheapest major platform for in-person sales of furniture, electronics, clothing, and household items.
