All free tools →- Who sells here
- A general-purpose US marketplace — clothing, electronics, home goods, collectibles, toys. The audience leans casual and bargain-led; titles, photos and a competitive price matter more than aesthetic curation. Listings are quick to put up and turn over fast.
- Fees today
-
Fee Rate Selling fee 10% on item + buyer-paid shipping Payment processing None (eliminated for sellers in Jan 2025) Listing / monthly / insertion None Instant Pay (optional faster payout) $3 per transfer Standard ACH payout Free Mercari moved to a seller-only fee structure in January 2025 — the previous buyer-side era and the 2.9% + $0.50 processing fee are both gone.
- With Shopfront
- Mercari Japan is a separate platform — Shopfront integrates with Mercari US only. From there, push Mercari listings to and from eBay, Depop and Grailed so US inventory works harder across multiple buyer pools.

How Shopfront cross-lists to MercariFAQs about selling on Mercari
What does Mercari charge sellers?
A flat 10% selling fee on the item price plus buyer-paid shipping, plus payment processing of 2.9% + $0.50 when the buyer pays. There are no listing fees, no monthly fees and no insertion charges.
Is Mercari US-only?
Mercari US is US-only — the marketplace doesn't ship internationally. Mercari Japan is a separate platform with different fees, audience and rules; Shopfront connects to Mercari US.
What is Instant Pay on Mercari?
Instant Pay is a $3 fee to transfer your Mercari balance to a linked debit card immediately rather than waiting for the standard payout schedule. Standard ACH transfers are free.
Does Mercari charge for shipping labels?
Mercari generates a discounted prepaid label at checkout — the buyer pays for shipping (rates depend on weight and distance). The 10% selling fee applies to the total the buyer paid, item plus shipping, so the fee calculator factors shipping into the commission base.
How does Mercari handle returns?
Mercari's Buyer Protection covers misrepresented items within three days of delivery. After that, the sale is final and funds release to the seller. The dispute process is generally faster and more seller-friendly than eBay.
Can I cross-list a Mercari listing to eBay or Depop?
Yes — Shopfront pulls a Mercari catalogue in and pushes the same listings to eBay, Depop, Grailed, Shopify and other channels without re-keying.
