Fees for Classified Ads
In this article

The Fees schedule includes this page and the below links for standard category listings, Motors vehicles, Real Estate, select Business & Industrial categories, and Stores subscribers.

In addition to the fees on this page, other fees may apply, including:

Basic fees

When you list an item, service, or property on eBay using the Classified Ad format, you're charged an insertion fee according to the following table. You won't be charged a final value fee or notice fee for this type of format.

To focus on buyers near you, consider creating a free ad on eBay Classifieds (formerly Kijiji.com). eBay Classifieds is a great option for large items that you want to sell but don't want to ship. Find out more about the differences between eBay.com Classified Ads and eBay Classifieds.

Supplemental service fees

If you use supplemental services, or other services offered by eBay or third parties, then charges associated with those services may also be treated as fees. Depending on the service, and at eBay's option, these charges may be included on your seller invoices as a fee, which may be charged to your automatic payment method on file, if any. Supplemental services include, but aren't limited to:

Other terms

  • Insertion fees and advanced listing upgrade fees apply to each listing you create, are charged at the time of listing, and are nonrefundable. Fee amounts are based on the terms in effect when the listing goes live and when it renews. If you select more than one category for your listing, insertion and advanced listing upgrade fees apply for each category.

  • Not all listing upgrades are available with every listing tool and not all advanced listing upgrades, when purchased, may be displayable across all our sites, services, applications, and tools.

  • We require payment in full each month on accounts with an amount due of $1 or more. If you haven't paid the amount due by the payment due date each month, late fees may apply. Learn more about payment requirements, due dates, and late fees.

  • We may limit the exposure of duplicate auction-style listings to ensure a positive buyer experience. If you list duplicate, identical auction-style listings, you'll be charged the full insertion fee for each listing even if a listing doesn't appear on eBay for the full duration of the listing. See the duplicate listings policy for more information.

  • Seller fees don't purchase exclusive rights to web pages on eBay. We may, in our sole discretion and without consent from or payment to sellers, display third-party advertisements (including links and references thereto) and listings from other sellers on any eBay web page.

  • When you submit your listing, it might not appear immediately in a keyword or category search. This can take up to 24 hours. Therefore, we can't guarantee exact listing durations.

  • All fees are in US dollars.
