If you're selling online, you're probably paying more in fees than you realize. Here's the breakdown of what major platforms actually cost - and why UNRULY is different.
The Hidden Fee Structure
eBay Total Costs:
- Final value fee: 12.9% for most categories
- PayPal fees: 2.9% + €0.35
- Listing fees: €0.30 for Buy It Now
- International fees: 1.65% additional
- Total: Up to 17%+ per sale
Etsy Total Costs:
- Transaction fee: 6.5%
- Payment processing: 3% + €0.25
- Listing fee: €0.18 per listing
- Advertising (almost required): 12%+ of sales
- Total: 22%+ for competitive visibility
What This Means in Real Terms
Sell a €100 item on:
- eBay: You keep €82-85 after all fees
- Etsy: You keep €75-78 after all fees
- UNRULY: You keep €100 (€102 if using PayPal, as buyer covers fees)
The UNRULY Advantage
We don't take a cut because we don't believe marketplaces should tax commerce. Buyers pay a small processing fee if they choose PayPal, sellers keep everything they earn.
Your alternatives:
- PayPal protection: Buyer covers all fees, you get 100% of your price
- Self-managed: Arrange payment however you prefer, zero platform fees
Stop giving away 15-20% of your earnings. Start selling on UNRULY.
