Depop fee calculator Canada: payouts at common prices
These payouts use a Depop label, no boosting and no tax:

Default settings, no sales tax, no optional fees.
On a C$10 sale, fees take C$1.59, so you keep C$8.41. On a C$100 sale, fees are C$13.20 and you keep C$86.80. The fixed C$0.30 from PayPal hurts most on cheap items. From C$50 up, the total settles at about 13% to 13.5%.
Why PayPal takes a cut
Sellers in Canada get paid through PayPal, not Depop's own payment system. Depop says PayPal's fee "may vary depending on your location and PayPal account setup". So the calculator uses PayPal Canada's standard rate for a domestic sale. PayPal lists it as 2.9% plus C$0.30 on its business fees page.
Your own rate can be different. A buyer paying from another country can cost more, and so can a payment in another currency. Check the fee line on your PayPal activity after your first sale.
The Depop selling fees Canada sellers pay on shipping
How you ship changes the selling fee. With a Depop shipping label, the 10% is on the item price only. If you arrange postage yourself, the 10% covers the shipping too.
Say you sell a C$50 item and charge C$10 to post it yourself. The selling fee is 10% of C$60, which is C$6.00. PayPal takes C$1.74 plus C$0.30. Fees total C$8.04, and C$51.96 reaches you before you pay for postage. Put your real postage cost in the calculator to see profit after the parcel.
Boosting fee in Canada
Boosting is optional. Sellers outside the UK and the US pay 8% when a boosted listing sells. In the UK and the US the rate is 12%. The 8% is charged on the item price, plus shipping if you don't use a Depop label.
A boosted C$50 sale adds C$4.00, so fees rise to C$10.75 and you keep C$39.25. Only boost items where a faster sale is worth that extra cost.
Bundles: one PayPal fee, not several
When a buyer takes several items in one bundle, Depop charges its 10% on each item. The payment processing fee applies once per bundle. So PayPal's fixed C$0.30 is paid once, not once per item. Bundling cheap pieces is the easiest way to cut that fixed charge.
Do Canadian buyers pay a Depop fee?
No. Depop's Marketplace fee applies to buyers in the UK, the US and Australia. Buyers in Canada pay the item price, shipping and any tax. Your listed price is what they see before shipping and tax.
