How it works

OfferUp charges nothing on local pickup sales. For shipped orders it charges a 12.9% service fee on the item price with a $1.99 minimum, and that fee includes payment processing.

Because the fee depends on the price, the calculator searches for the lowest price where price minus OfferUp fees equals your target.

Example

You want to keep	Charge on OfferUp
$20	$22.97
$50	$57.41
$100	$114.82

Shipping charged to buyer is $0. The fee applies to the item price, not shipping, which the buyer pays. A few guides list category-based rates up to 15.4% or an extra fixed fee; the most recent sources checked agree on 12.9% with a $1.99 minimum, which is what this calculator uses. Promotion fees ($1.99 to $19.99) are optional and not included.
