How does Depop's payment processing work for Australian sellers?
Depop uses Depop Payments (powered by Stripe) for all Australian transactions. Funds are held briefly after a sale and typically available to withdraw within 3–5 business days. You can transfer to your linked bank account or hold a balance in Depop. The payment processing fee is included in the overall ~13% fee structure (10% Depop commission + approximately 2.9% + $0.30 processing). Depop does not support PayPal for new transactions — all payments go through Depop Payments.

Key things to know for Australian sellers
Australian online selling has its own quirks: GST registration thresholds, Australia Post rate structures, and platform-specific buyer behaviour differ from the US and UK advice you'll find most readily online. Checking ATO guidance directly and using the Australia Post postage calculator for accurate quotes are good starting points.
Using multiple platforms together
Most successful Australian resellers end up selling across at least two platforms. The marginal effort to list on a second platform is much lower if you already have photos and a description, and reaching two different buyer pools meaningfully increases your chances of a sale.
