Temu Seller Fee Calculator
Two models: supplier, or merchant with a commission.
Marketplace fee models change often, and several platforms in this set have altered theirs outright in recent years. These defaults are a starting point — your own seller terms are the authority.
Profit per unit
$4.10
50% of what you receive
Under the wholesale model you are a supplier, not a merchant — Temu pays $8.20 and keeps the $10.79 retail margin. There is no commission line because there is no commission; the margin is the gap, and you have no control over the retail price.
How the Temu Seller Fee Calculator works
Temu began with a model where sellers were suppliers — Temu paid a wholesale price and kept the retail margin, with no commission line at all. A conventional local-to-local model with a percentage fee has since been added in several markets, and the two work completely differently.
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
How does Temu pay sellers?
Under the original supplier model, at an agreed wholesale price, with Temu setting retail and keeping the difference. Under the newer local-to-local model, you set the price and pay a commission like any marketplace.
Which model is better?
The supplier model removes pricing control and marketing burden but also removes risk and effort. The local model gives you control and a higher ceiling. Compare what Temu would pay you outright against what you would net after commission.
Is there a commission on the supplier model?
No conventional commission — Temu's margin is the gap between what it pays you and what it charges. That makes the effective take rate invisible unless you know the retail price.
What are the risks?
Price pressure is severe and Temu has historically applied penalties for quality issues and late dispatch. Concentrating volume on any single channel with that dynamic is worth thinking carefully about.
