Amazon Referral Fee Calculator
Calculate Amazon's referral fee and your net proceeds from price and fee %.
What is the Amazon Referral Fee Calculator?
Amazon charges a referral fee — a percentage cut of every sale — on top of any fulfillment fees, whether you use FBA or ship it yourself. This calculator computes that fee and your net proceeds from your price, shipping and fee percentage.
Why there's no built-in full category table
Amazon's referral fee ranges from about 5% to 45% depending on category, and several categories (clothing, jewelry, beauty) use tiered rates that change at specific price thresholds rather than one flat percentage. Amazon did freeze referral fees through 2025 and 2026, so rates are more stable right now than in some past years — but subcategory exceptions and tier boundaries are easy to get wrong in a hardcoded table. The dropdown above gives typical starting points for common categories; always confirm your exact ASIN's current rate using Seller Central's fee preview before finalizing pricing.
How to use it
- Enter your item's price and any shipping you charge the buyer (Amazon's fee is based on the total, not just the item price).
- Pick a typical category rate as a starting point, or type your own confirmed percentage directly.
- Read off the referral fee and what you'd net before any fulfillment or other costs — combine with the FBA Profit & ROI Calculator for the full picture including fulfillment fees.
