How Amazon FBA fees work
Amazon takes a referral fee (15% for most categories) plus a flat fulfillment fee based on your item’s size and weight — the cost of Amazon picking, packing, and shipping it. Since April 2026, a 3.5% fuel surcharge is added to that fulfillment fee.
profit = price − referral − (fulfillment × 1.035) − unit cost − inbound

Frequently asked questions
What fees does Amazon FBA charge?
Two main ones: a referral fee (a percentage of the sale, 15% for most categories) and an FBA fulfillment fee (a flat amount based on the item’s size and weight, roughly $3–$7 for standard sizes). Since April 2026 a 3.5% fuel surcharge is also added to the fulfillment fee.
What is the Amazon referral fee?
A commission on each sale. Most categories are 15%, but it ranges from 8% to 45% depending on category, with a $0.30 minimum per item. Enter your category’s rate above.
How is the fulfillment fee determined?
By the packaged size tier and weight of your product — not its price. Small, light items cost the least to fulfill; larger or heavier items cost more. Pick the closest size tier above for an estimate.
