How Facebook Marketplace fees work
- Shipped (Checkout) orders: 10% per transaction with a $0.80 minimum, calculated on the entire amount of the transaction, including item price, shipping and taxes.
- Goods shipped together count as one transaction.
- Local pickup sales paid in person are not processed through Meta Checkout, so no Meta selling fee applies.
- Shipping label costs and any separate payment-provider fees are not included.
