Amazon revises fee schedules at least annually and adds new surcharges more often. These defaults are a starting point — the figures in your own fee preview are the ones that describe your ASINs.

Amazon fees per unit

$9.13

30.4% of the selling price

Referral fee at 15%$4.50
FBA fulfilment fee$4.63
Total per unit$9.13
Per month$2,739

These two fees take 30.4% of the price before you have paid for the product, storage or advertising. Storage, returns and the monthly plan sit on top, and they are the ones that scale with slow selling rather than fast.

How the Amazon FBA Fee Calculator works

The referral fee and the fulfilment fee are the two everyone models, and together they routinely take a third of the selling price before you have paid for the product. What makes them predictable is that both are known up front — unlike storage, returns and advertising, which scale with how badly the product sells.

Not financial advice. Marketplace fees change, and they vary by country, plan and seller status. Every rate here is an editable default, not a quoted price — check the platform's current fee schedule before you price a product against it. This is not tax or business advice.

Frequently asked questions

What fees does Amazon charge FBA sellers?

A referral fee that is a percentage of the total the customer pays, and a fulfilment fee based on size tier and weight. On top of those sit monthly storage, the plan subscription, advertising, and a growing list of surcharges for aged inventory, low stock cover and inbound placement.

How much of my price goes to Amazon?

For a typical private-label product in a 15% referral category, referral plus fulfilment commonly runs 30% to 40% of the selling price. Adding advertising takes many sellers past 50% before product cost.

Is the referral fee charged on shipping?

Yes. It applies to the total the customer pays including any shipping and gift wrap charges, not to the item price alone.

Where do I get my exact fees?

The Revenue Calculator in Seller Central, using your actual ASIN. It reflects your real size tier, which is measured from the packaged product and frequently differs from what you estimated.
