Where the fee structures differ
Depop
Depop stopped charging sellers a commission in 2024, first in the UK and then in the US. What remains is payment processing, which is a percentage plus a fixed amount on the full order including shipping, and an optional Boosted Listing fee if you paid to promote the item.
Vinted
Vinted charges sellers nothing. No commission, no listing fee, no payment processing. The entire platform is funded by a Buyer Protection fee paid by the buyer on top of your price, plus optional paid promotions (Bumps and Wardrobe Spotlight) you can choose to buy.
What that means for you
- Fixed fees punish cheap items. Depop and Vinted has a fixed per-sale component, which weighs most on items under £15.
- Fees on shipping. Platforms that charge their percentage on shipping as well as the item (Etsy, eBay, Mercari, TikTok Shop, Depop processing) make "charge for shipping" and "free shipping, higher price" cost the same. Platforms that charge on the item only (Poshmark, Whatnot commission, StockX, Vinted) reward charging real shipping.
- Buyer-side fees. If either platform charges the buyer a fee at checkout, your listing looks more expensive to shoppers than your price suggests. Price a little lower to land at the same buyer total.
