Welcome

Welcome to my website! I designed this site to provide helpful tips and recommendations for selling and promoting items on Poshmark and Mercari! I am a #boymom trying to put my sons through school. I started Poshmark from the advice of a good friend who mentioned she started on Poshmark in December 2021. I’ll dive into some tips and tricks that have made successful on both sites. I receive ad sponsorship so please click on the links!

Selling Fees

Believe it or not, there are selling fees on Poshmark and Mercari! There are no charges to list your items on either site. However, I have personally found that I went I tried to list my high end bags on Mercari, I had to pay a $5 authentication fee that could not be bypassed. I wasn’t too happy with the fee, but I paid it anyway so that I could list it.

After your item sells, Poshmark deducts a fee from the final order price. For sales under $15, the fee is a flat rate of $2.95. For sales above $15, the fee is 20% and you (the seller) keeps 80%.

After your item sells, Mercari charges a minute fee of 10% of the item price for a completed sale. This fee is charged to the seller. In addition, Mercari charges sellers a market competitive rate of 2.9% plus $0.30 for each payment received from the buyer.

Between the two platforms, Mercari has lower selling fees compared to Poshmark.
