How Amazon seller fees work in 2026

Every Amazon.com sale pays a referral fee: a percentage of the total price the buyer pays (item, shipping and gift wrap, not sales tax), 15% in most categories, with a $0.30 minimum in most categories. Books, music, video and video games add a $1.80 closing fee. On top of that you pay for your selling plan: Professional is $39.99 a month and Individual is $0.99 per unit sold, so Professional is cheaper once you sell more than 40 units a month.

2026 FBA fulfillment fees

If Amazon ships the order (FBA), you also pay a fulfillment fee per unit. It depends on the size tier (small standard, large standard, small bulky, large bulky, extra-large), the shipping weight (for most tiers the greater of unit weight and dimensional weight, which is length × width × height ÷ 139), and the price band: under $10, $10 to $50, or over $50. From Oct 15, 2026 to Jan 14, 2027 higher holiday-peak rates apply. Since April 17, 2026 Amazon adds a 3.5% fuel and logistics-related surcharge to the fulfillment fee.

Monthly storage

FBA storage is charged per cubic foot of the packaged unit: $0.78 for standard-size items and $0.56 for oversize from January to September, rising to $2.40 and $1.40 from October to December. Dangerous goods cost more. Sellers with high storage utilization can also pay a storage utilization surcharge, which this calculator does not include.

A worked example

A $24.99 kitchen product, 10 × 6 × 3 inches and 1.2 lb, sold in October. Its dimensional weight is 180 ÷ 139 = 1.29 lb, so it ships as large standard at 1.29 lb: $5.73 at peak rates, plus a $0.20 surcharge. The referral fee is 15% = $3.75, and one month of October storage is 0.104 ft³ × $2.40 = $0.25. Amazon takes $9.93, about 40%. After a $6 product cost and $0.50 to ship it to Amazon, you keep $8.56.

What this calculator leaves out

The low-inventory-level fee, inbound placement fees, returns processing, the storage utilization and aged inventory surcharges, removal and disposal, and the Overmax handling fee are not included, because they depend on your whole account rather than one unit. Your Transaction report shows all of them, and the ShopTrueProfit dashboard counts every one when you import it with the marketplace set to Amazon.

Amazon FBA fee FAQ

How much does Amazon take per sale?

Amazon charges a referral fee on every sale, 15% of the total price in most categories with a $0.30 minimum. With FBA you also pay a fulfillment fee per unit (from $2.43 for a small, light item under $10 outside peak season), a 3.5% fuel and logistics surcharge on that fee, and monthly storage. Add $39.99 a month for the Professional plan or $0.99 per unit on the Individual plan.

How is the Amazon referral fee calculated?

It is a percentage of the total sales price the buyer pays, including the item price, shipping and gift wrap, but not sales tax. Most categories pay 15%; some have tiers, such as clothing at 5% up to $15, 10% up to $20 and 17% above. Most categories have a $0.30 minimum per unit.

What are the 2026 FBA fulfillment fees?

They depend on the size tier, the shipping weight and the price band (under $10, $10 to $50, over $50). For example, a 2.88 oz phone case under $10 costs $2.49 outside peak season and $2.68 during the Oct 15, 2026 to Jan 14, 2027 peak, before the 3.5% fuel and logistics surcharge.

Should I choose the Individual or Professional plan?

Individual costs $0.99 for each unit sold; Professional costs $39.99 a month. Professional is cheaper if you sell more than about 40 units a month.

How much does FBA storage cost?

From January to September, $0.78 per cubic foot a month for standard-size items and $0.56 for oversize. From October to December, $2.40 and $1.40. Dangerous goods cost more, and a storage utilization surcharge can apply on top.

The low-inventory-level fee, inbound placement fees, returns processing, storage utilization and aged inventory surcharges, removal and disposal fees, and the Overmax handling fee, because they depend on your account and shipments rather than a single unit.
