Depop vs Vinted — The Core Difference

Same category of platform. Completely different fee models.

DEPOP

What Depop charges sellers (UK/EU):

  • Depop commission: 10% of total transaction
  • Payment processing: 3.29% + £0.30
  • Applied to: listing price + shipping charged to buyer
  • Shipping: seller arranges own carrier
  • Total effective fee: ~13.3% + £0.30

US ACCOUNT (2023 change)

VINTED

What Vinted charges sellers:

  • Seller commission: £0 / €0 / $0
  • Platform fee: ZERO
  • Shipping: Vinted prepaid label (from £3.55)
  • Total effective fee: 0% platform + shipping label only

THE VINTED ADVANTAGE

You list at £25. You receive £25. Then you subtract the shipping label. That's it. No commission. No payment processing fee.

On a £25 item in the UK:
Vinted nets you £17.90 (after £3.55 label, £3.55 shipping)
Depop UK nets you £15.63 (after 10% + payment fee)
Difference: £2.27 per sale — £1,362 per year at 50 items/month

Vinted vs Depop Profit — At Every Price Point

£8 purchase cost, UK region, Vinted 1kg label (£3.55). Depop UK includes 10% commission + payment fee. Depop US includes payment processing only.

Price Vinted Profit Depop UK Profit Depop US Profit Winner
£10 £1.45 −£0.32 £4.83 Depop US
£15 £6.45 £4.45 £9.70 Depop US
£20 £11.45 £8.04 £13.97 Depop US
£25 £13.45 £10.65 £16.78 Depop US
£30 £18.45 £14.48 £21.60 Depop US

£50 £38.45 £30.30 £40.28 Depop US
£75 £63.45 £52.11 £65.03 Vinted

Depop US wins at most price points because $0 commission + low payment fee beats Vinted's shipping label cost. But Depop US requires a US-based account. For UK sellers, Vinted consistently outperforms Depop UK — especially on lower-priced items.

Depop US vs Depop UK — Two Completely Different Platforms

The 2023 fee change created two separate products under one brand name.

In 2023, Depop removed its 10% seller commission for US-based accounts. This created two completely different fee structures on the same platform:

UK/EU Depop account: 10% commission + 3.29% + £0.30 on the total transaction (including any shipping you charge the buyer)

US Depop account: 0% commission + 2.9% + $0.30 on the total transaction

If you're a UK-based reseller with a US Depop account, you pay the US fee structure. The calculator lets you set your region and your Depop account region independently — because this is a real situation many cross-border sellers face.

🇬🇧 DEPOP UK ACCOUNT

Depop or Vinted — When to Use Each Platform

 

LOWER PRICE ITEMS

Under £15 → Choose Vinted

At low prices, Vinted's zero commission means you keep more even after the shipping label. Depop UK's 13%+ effective rate is painful on small items. Poshmark's $2.95 flat fee can be even worse.

MID PRICE ITEMS

£15–£50 → Compare Both

At this range, Vinted's shipping label cost becomes proportionally smaller, but Depop UK's commission becomes proportionally more painful. Use the calculator to see the exact difference for your specific item.

HIGHER PRICE ITEMS

£50+ → Consider Vestiaire Too

For luxury items, consider Vestiaire Collective. For non-luxury, Vinted continues to win on fees. Depop UK at 13%+ on a £100 item means you're paying £13 in Depop commission alone.

Vinted Shipping — The Only Cost Sellers Pay

Since Vinted charges no platform commission, the shipping label is the only variable sellers control.

Weight Service Label Cost
Up to 1 kg Evri £3.55
Up to 5 kg Evri £5.39
Up to 10 kg Evri £7.10
Up to 30 kg InPost £9.39
At £25 listing with a 1kg item:
Vinted: £25.00 − £3.55 shipping = £21.45 received
Depop UK: £25.00 − £4.02 fees − £4.00 shipping = £16.98 received
Difference: £4.47 on a single item

Depop vs Vinted — Every Question Answered

 

In most cases, yes — on fees alone. Vinted charges UK sellers zero platform commission. Depop UK charges 10% on the full transaction plus payment processing fees, totalling around 13%+. The difference becomes smaller if you factor in Vinted's mandatory shipping label cost, but Vinted still wins at most price points above £10.
Only in the United States. In 2023, Depop removed the 10% seller commission for US-based accounts. UK and EU accounts still pay the full 10% commission plus payment processing. If you have a US Depop account, your fees are dramatically lower — comparable to Vinted at many price points.
Yes — in the UK and EU. Depop charges its 10% commission on the total transaction, which includes whatever shipping fee you charge the buyer. If you list at £20 and charge £4 shipping, Depop takes 10% of £24 = £2.40 in commission. Vinted's model is different — you pay for the shipping label from your earnings, but there's no percentage taken.
Both have strong buyer communities, but for different markets. Depop has a strong community in the UK and US, particularly for streetwear and vintage. Vinted is dominant in UK and Europe for everyday fashion and fast fashion resale. Both offer buyer protection — on Vinted, buyers pay for it; on Depop, it's handled through their payments system.
Yes, and many resellers do. The key is knowing which platform gives you better profit for each specific item. A luxury vintage piece might sell better on Depop's community. A high-street brand item might move faster on Vinted. The Platform Comparison Mode in the calculator shows you the profit difference side by side — before you list.
