Australia fee rates by category tier (Pro plans, GST-inclusive)
eBay Australia's final value fee is a matrix: your Pro plan × the item's category tier, with a reduced rate on the portion of each item above A$4,000. Percentages apply to the total amount of the sale (item price + postage + applicable taxes), per item. All rates include 10% GST.
| Category tier | Starter | Basic | Featured | Anchor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 — home appliances, technology devices | 13.4% | 8.03% | 7.26% | 6.82% |
| Tier 2 — most items | 13.4% | 11.44% | 10.34% | 9.68% |
| Tier 3 — vehicle parts & accessories | 13.4% | 12.43% | 11.22% | 10.56% |
| Tier 4 — business & industrial, collectables, fashion, media, sporting goods, tech accessories | 13.4% | 13.09% | 11.77% | 11.11% |

Buyer protection fee explained
Search results for "eBay Australia fees" currently show three different headline numbers — 13%, "zero selling fees", and 13.4%. All three are real, which is exactly why they get mashed together wrongly:
| The number | What it actually is |
|---|---|
| 13.4% | The Pro Starter rate — one flat percentage across all category tiers |
| 11.44% / 8.03%… | Paid Pro plans (Basic and up) — lower percentages, monthly fee applies |
| $0 | Casual selling: free below A$25,000 trailing 12-month sales, no Pro plan |
| Buyer-side amounts | Buyers may see their own protections/fees on some flows — never deducted from your payout |
There is no separate "buyer protection fee" line charged to sellers on eBay Australia today — if a source tells a seller to add one, it's confusing the buyer side or another market's fee.
Free selling: the A$25,000 rule
Register in Australia, run no Pro plan, and stay at or under A$25,000 in sales across the trailing 12 full calendar months → final value fee $0. Cross A$25,000 and eBay auto-assigns Pro Starter from the 1st of the next month. Most categories get 250,000 free listings a month, so listing fees effectively never bind.
GST: what's included
Every rate on this page is GST-inclusive as published. Sellers who provide an ABN and register for tax-exempt buying are charged ex-GST — those ex-GST values are not published, so we don't derive them. eBay's seller currency conversion (payout in another currency) is 3%, rising to 3.25% from 1 November 2026. Not tax advice.
Per-order & insertion fees in A$
Every Pro order pays a fixed order fee — $0.30 on Starter, $0.33 on Basic/Featured/Anchor — once per order. Overseas buyers (delivery outside Australia) add a 1.1% international sales fee for Pro sellers. Disputes cost $24.20 each; Below Standard and very-high-INAD surcharges add 5.5% (6.6% when sustained 4+ months).
Selling across borders or taking PayPal?
International sales from Australia add the 1.1% fee above. Taking PayPal on the side? US goods & services runs 2.99% with no fixed fee — see our PayPal fee calculator (Australia's own PayPal rates: 2.90% + A$0.30 domestic, +1.00% cross-border).
