What's included

This compares the fees every DE business seller pays on a sale: Amazon's and Shopify's referral, transaction or final-value fee, payment processing, and any per-order, listing or regulatory operating fee. It excludes VAT charged on marketplace fees, which is reclaimable if you are VAT-registered — so the platforms line up on what they actually keep. Amazon FBA fulfilment and Shopify's monthly subscription are also excluded. For an all-in estimate, use the full calculators:
