TikTok Shop Seller Fees 2026: 6-10% Real Cost + Examples
TikTok Shop seller fees take 6-10% of your selling price on a typical direct sale in 2026, and up to 25-30% if you run affiliate campaigns or cross-border fulfilment. The headline cost is the referral fee (1-8% depending on market and category), but TikTok Shop is unusual among marketplaces because it charges no separate transaction fee. Payment processing is already baked into the referral rate. Optional costs stack on top: affiliate commissions (you set 5-25%), ads, returns, and cross-border fulfilment fees. New sellers get a discounted 1.8-3% referral fee for their first 30-90 days in most markets. Here’s exactly how each TikTok Shop fee works, what it costs you per order, and how to keep more of every sale.
