UK Seller Fee Changes

Marketplace fee changes arrive in scattered announcement posts, take effect while you're busy packing orders, and then become impossible to look up. This page remembers them — platform, date, what changed, who it hit — with a last-verified date on every entry. Filter by platform below.

Last full verification pass: August 2026. Entries are compiled from platform announcements and official rate pages at the dates shown; platforms occasionally revise terms regionally — their current published terms are always the authority. Spotted a change we've missed? Email us (footer) — corrections ship fast.

Hear about the next change before it lands. The fee-change email: one plain-English email a month when fees move — read issue 1 (Royal Mail's 5 October parcel rise leads it). Issue 2 is out (eBay's retroactive Live-sales standards change leads it). One email a month at most, one-click unsubscribe, confirmation link first — you're not on the list until you click it. Prefer email? Write to us instead.

What do the CURRENT fees cost you? All seven UK channels side by side, or per-platform: Etsy, eBay, Folksy, NOTHS, Vinterior.
