For a table of Amazon shipping rates for all products sold by Individual sellers, see Shipping credits for Individual sellers.

Referral Fees

• Sellers pay a referral fee on each item sold.
• For all products, Amazon deducts the applicable referral fee percentage calculated on the total sales price. The total sales price is the total amount paid by the buyer, including the item price and any delivery or gift wrapping charges.

Referral fees vary by category, as listed below.

* The referral fee rates for FBA and Seller Fulfilled Prime selections are valid for the promotional period from March 1, 2020 through April 30, 2021. The promotional period was extended from the initial end date of February 28, 2021 due to COVID-19 related restrictions EU sellers faced during March and April 2020.

** For sellers on Amazon Handmade, the reduction of the referral fee from 15% to 12% applies until December 31, 2021.

*** For more details on the different types of categories/products within Health & Personal Care and Personal Care Appliances, please check this link.

**** Effective since July 22, 2019.

Closing Fee

Sellers also pay a closing fee per media item that is sold. This is €1.01 for Books, €0.81 for Music, €0.81 for DVD and Video and €0.81 for Video Games (Games, Accessories and Consoles) and Software.

High-Volume Listing Fee

€0.0004 per active non-media SKU

As of February 1, 2015, we calculate the monthly High-Volume Listing Fee based on the number of active non-media SKUs you offer for sale on Amazon. The High-Volume Listing Fee will only apply if you exceed 2 million SKUs in a given month, and it will be applied to your highest number of SKUs above 2 million at any time during that month. For each active non-media SKU over 2 million, a fee of €0.0004 per SKU will apply.

For example, if during the month a total of 3 million active non-media SKUs were made available by you, the fee applied for that month will be €400 (3,000,000 - 2,000,000 SKUs = 1,000,000 SKUs x €0.0004).

The fee will be calculated monthly and it will be shown in your next month's statement.

Refund administration fee

If you refund a customer for an order for which you have already received payment, Amazon will refund you the amount of the referral fee you paid for the item(s), minus the applicable Refund Administration Fee, which is the lesser of €5.00 or 20% of the applicable referral fee.

For example, if you refund a customer the €10.00 total sales price of an item in a category with a 15% referral fee, your Refund Administration Fee will be €0.30 (€10.00 x 15% referral fee = €1.50).
