What are Amazon commissions?
Amazon sales commission, in short, means that Amazon sellers need to pay a certain handling fee to the Amazon platform for each item sold. Different products have different sales commissions. Whether you are an individual seller or a professional seller, you need to pay sales commissions for the products. So how is Amazon's consumer commission calculated? Regarding the two types of sales commissions, you can refer to the following calculation formula.
Media Products:
For media products, such as books, music, video, software, and video games, Amazon will deduct the greater of the applicable referral fee percentage or the applicable per-item minimum referral fee calculated based on the sales price excluding any taxes collected through Amazon's VAT calculation service.
Amazon commission calculation formula:
The selling price of the item + shipping cost - referral fee (applicable percentage of the item's selling price) - transaction fee - $0.99 fee per item (for "Individual" sellers only) = total amount deposited into the seller's account
Non-media products:
For non-media items, Amazon will deduct the greater of the applicable referral fee percentage or the applicable per-item minimum referral fee calculated based on the total sales price (the total amount paid by the customer, including the item price and any shipping or gift wrap charges, but excluding any taxes collected through Amazon’s VAT calculation service).
Amazon commission calculation formula:
The item's sale price + shipping + gift wrap - referral fee (applicable percentage of the total sale price including any shipping or gift wrap charges, excluding any taxes collected through Amazon's tax calculation service) - $0.99 fee per item (for "Individual" sellers only) = the total amount deposited into the seller's account.
